Resident Evil 4 uses the Capcom RE engine, which has powered nearly all of the company's games since Resident Evil 7. Therefore, it does not present hardware requirements that feel ridiculous.
According to the configuration given by Capcom:
Run the game with the minimum configuration,
CPU：AMD Ryzen 3 1200 或 Intel Core i5-7500
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 560 (4GB) or Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (4GB)
As well as 8GB of memory and 54GB of SSD hard disk space.

The recommended configuration of this game is also quite affordable.
CUP：AMD Ryzen 5 3600 或 Intel Core i7 8700
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 5700 or Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070
16GB of RAM, 54GB of SSD storage

In addition, Resident Evil 4 supports AMD's FSR1,2, and FSR3 technology (FidelityFX Super Resolution, an interpolation technique used to improve display performance) while using cutting-edge temporal algorithms.
Doing so allows you to reduce the resolution of the game while still creating a game image that is almost identical to the original resolution. This can help gamers who have low PC performance.
While reducing the resolution of the game, increase the frame rate and upgrade it to create an image that is nearly identical to the original resolution, helping underperforming machines maintain the best gaming experience without sacrificing visual performance.

Resident Evil 4 can certainly support ray tracing, but that would require at least an AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT or an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 to access them.
Another option for squeezing out your computer's performance is the hair and fur quality, which is recommended to be turned up to the highest if you can, so that Leon can "do what he can."

The author of PC Gamer's article mentioned that he locked 60 frames on a device with an Intel Core i7-10700K CUP, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and played Resident Evil 4 on a 1440 resolution computer. There is no frame rate drop, there is only a very occasional stutter, but it does not exceed 1 second, and this situation is very rare.
All in all, Resident Evil 4 showcases top-notch performance and gorgeous, brilliant gameplay.
