      Hard to tell. The base ENB isn't really that demanding, it all comes down to the DoF and Bloom quality setting. Those two will literally make the difference between 20 and 60 fps. Since noone needs 60fps when screenshooting (and that's what the DoF is for), it all comes down to what' bearable for you. Plus, texture mods also eat a LOT of fps if you got all those fancy 4k plant and environmental textures installed.
      
      Personally, I'm using a i7 3770K (@4,5Ghz), 32GB DDR3-1333 and an AMD R9 290X with 4GB GDDR5. Running the game @3440x1440 unless downsampling for screenshots. With DoF active, I get ~10-15fps which is ok for me to do screenshots. Without DoF and lowered bloom quality, I get about 30+fps which is playable for me. I've tried 1920x1080 for the release, and it was more than playable for me with deactivated DoF. Depending on the scene, I got plenty of fps even with DoF activated, but the effect was way too distracting for regular gameplay.
      
      Since I don't have a QA team (), I think it's a good idea if people could post their PC specs and the fps they're getting with & without DoF here. Might help other people decide if they want to grill their PC or not.
