What you need to run it

The minimum specification calls for i5-4460, 16 GB RAM and GTX 750 Ti. A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 20GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
