Uhh. Your computer is not really overkill, the CPU is an old generation and so is the RAM.

Your graphics card is just a GeForce GT... It's not even a GTX, so it's not really a gaming card.

The FPS you get is what I'd call normal for a system with your specifications.

Just wanted to say that for any specifications you may have seen online for this game, such as steam are outdated. You can use the 'Wayback Machine' and/or check the install size, it is not 21GB. Steam hasn't updated them in at least 3 years but the game has had several new features added since. Higher poly models, textures, reworked lighting to name a few.

A guesstimate of what they should be now for ~+30fps;

OS: Windows® 10
PROCESSOR: Core i7-2xxx Quad Core or better
MEMORY: 8GB RAM or better
GRAPHICS: NVidia GeForce GTX 1050, ATI/AMD Radeon RX 560
DIRECTX: Version 11.0 or better
NETWORK: Broadband Internet Connection
STORAGE: 33GB
AUDIO: DirectX 10 compatible sound chip or onboard audio capability with the latest sound drivers

Then what setting do you reccomend to get a normallised frame rate

Note: i had halo 2 for vista and i had terrible frame rate despite not having over kill it was due to the game poorly optimized and never updated i thought this was some how related never hurts to ask

As said, the system requirements listed on most sites are the requirements for when the game first came out. They're nowhere near enough for the game in it's current form.

This all looks about right. I have a Media PC with a 4th Gen i5 and a 1050Ti and it plays the game at 1080p quite well. An i7 is obviously preferable, but not required.. this seems like a pretty accurate baseline.

Unfortunately, given your system specs.. I would strongly recommend going with the lowest on pretty much everything. It's not going to look great, but should be somewhat playable provided you don't get into to many huge area battles.
