We don't know anything about the new engine so there's no point in trying to come up with recommended PC specs.
I suppose the GPU will be more important than CPU cause next-gen NBA 2k features lots of shader based effects, much more complex geometry and much higher resolution of textures. But nothing is certain, we don't know how the engine was designed. I'm just sure it won't require more than 2GB of video memory but mobile and budget GPUs may have some problems running the new 2k15.

It's stable 60 fps during gameplay. When it cuts to replay or plays cutscene the game runs 30 fps.

Watch_Dogs with Textures on Medium everything else on High solid 35fps
Crysis 3 on Very High at around 55fps
Battlefield 4 on Ultra at around 45fps
dont ask my why i can run this.. maybe its because my PC is well Optimised,clean and i take care of it very well, maybe its because i have overclocked my CPU to 3.5 ghz and have enhanced my 4g Ram by assigning 32gb digital Ram on my Hard Drive
pick one
fact is those Games run well on my PC, no matter what some "stat" says how its "supposed" to run..
Well, just reading what you wrote is enough to know that you're not an expert on building PCs. Don't take it personally. It's not some 'e-penis / keyboard warrior' thing for me. I just don't want people to assume anything after reading your posts. It's not like everybody has to know the ins and outs of PC architecture. But you're doing no good when advising people on a subject in which you obviously lack specialized knowledge.
I work at IT, I've built many high end machines in my life. I've built specialized workstations and crazy over-the-top gaming computers. I know a thing or two about PC architecture.
I bet when somebody would properly benchmark those games on your machine you would be... well... surprised. But it doesn't matter, it's not some pissing contest and I'm not going to get myself sucked into senseless argument war.
I don't want to deliberately discredit you. If you feel offended - I'm sorry.
The bottom line is, I don't want other forum users to get misled by what you wrote.
BTW, there is no such thing as enhancing RAM with 'digital RAM on hard drive'. You probably just played a little with Windows swap file size which is usually not a good idea in non-server environment.
your req looks for maximum not minimum.
