Serious question- why are minimum requirements so low and what happens if you play on a system that barely passes the recommended requirements?

Like does the game run but lowest settings on everything but smooth or ??

Truly dont know and curious.

EDIT: i am planning to build a PC around 9060XT 16GB and hook it up to a 4k Hisense UR8 RGB tv with the idea of using FSR (not FG) to play the above games and more of this nature. I am just really unsure if the GPU is strong enough to achieve average 80+ frames on these games with visuals at least on high and if possible maximum settings to ensure the game world looks awesome like it will on PS5 or Xbox when you play the same games.

I just cant afford higher end GPU and prefer PC for the flexibility of games and not being locked to a system.

So I played RDR1 on my laptop for half an hour and I got these temperatures. Is it normal or should I be concerned for it?

I have a lenovo thinkpad L380 8gb ram single stick

i3 8th gen uhd 620 integrated graphics

How to optimize it for 60+fps it can currently run at like 30 but i dont think i have optimized it enough

Hi everyone! I have a question about my "project" pc. It currently has an hd7970,an i5 7600k,16gb ddr4, (good) sata ssd. Currently it has trouble loading the levels of BeamNG Drive. It only loads like lines of level and the road. My question is which gpu is worth upgrading/buying to replace that hd7970 that can run BeamNG Drive?

After 10 years of using integrated graphics I have finally saved enough to get an pc

Specs:

I5 8600k

16 gb ddr4

256 nvme and 2tb hdd

MSI GTX 1660ti

Deepcool pl550d 550w

As the title indicates, I am currently searching for the best graphics cards that offer reasonable value on the used market. I have a maximum budget of $200-$300 to spend on this component, and I would appreciate it if you could recommend some specific models that fall within that price range. While I have already reviewed the technical specification sheets, I am looking for advice from individuals who actually play the game, as I am incredibly excited to run InZOI natively on my local machine rather than relying on GeForce Now. Although that service is fantastic, I find myself wishing for more storage capacity to accommodate my mods and custom buildings, as I have realized that GeForce Now prevents me from loading certain custom content I have modified into the game. I have been considering the purchase of an Nvidia graphics card, specifically one equipped with either 8 GB or 12 GB of memory, or perhaps an Intel ARC graphics card, given that I recall they were quite popular a few years ago; what is your perspective on these options?

Hi everyone,

I’m having an FPS issue with game (BF1, The Finals, Cyberpunk 2077 and other games)

Back in 2019–2022 I used to get 70–80 FPS, but after downloading it again in 2026 it barely runs at 40–50 FPS. All settings are on Low.

My laptop specs:

• CPU: 11th Gen Intel Core i7-11800H @ 2.30 GHz
• RAM: 16 GB
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU (8 GB) + Intel UHD Graphics

Any ideas what could be causing the big drop in performance?

I got i5 8350u, 620 UHD. I know it's pretty prehistoric but even when I boot it up on 480p and windowed (doesn't open up to be windowed) it doesn't even go past the Santa Monica loading screen and crashes, are there any workarounds? or is it over for me 💔🙏🏼

I wanna play last of us so badly 😭 but I have 4gb rtx 3050🥀 it lags so much and temperature is also high, is there any way ?

I graphics settings are already set at very low

Hi, how can I get the fans on my Dell Latitude E5420 to run at 100% to keep temperatures to a minimum? I also have an external fan installed. I want the internal fan to run at 100% to increase temperatures. Tell me what program, script, or code I can use to make the fan run at 100%.

I know its obvious that older parts aren't the best for gaming in the modern day but i was wondering if there is any settings or programs i can use to help my graphics card keep up with some modern games. Example: the game I'm currently playing is Valhiem and the performance is all over the place unless i just lock everything to the lowest setting. Even when someone else hosts to take off some of the load. Makes it annoying to play a survival game with no render distance.

So i downloaded the game thinkin it's gonna work (big gow fan), but to my surprise, it's running on 15-20 fps, the specs are 16 gigs ddr3, rx 580 2048sp and i5-4590, anyone here with same specs that tried it?

TITLE: Apex stutters at 170-210 FPS on Ryzen 7 3700X + RTX 3060 Ti (GPU only 46% used). What am I missing?

SPECS: Ryzen 7 3700X (AG400 G2 cooler, \~65C in game), RTX 3060 Ti, 4x8GB DDR4-3200 CL16 (XMP, FCLK 1:1), MSI B450M Mortar Max, 1080p 260Hz G-Sync, Win 11.

PROBLEM: Micro-stutter about once a minute and uneven frame times in fights. Firing range is smooth. I used to average \~250 FPS, now \~190-210. GPU \~46%, CPU \~32%, no core pinned at 100%. Ping is stable.

TRIED (no real change): new cooler, XMP/FCLK, Auto HDR off (+5%), Process Lasso (+5-10%), SMT off for Apex, shader cache clear, all background apps closed, PBO, Reflex On+Boost, power plan tweaks, lowest CPU-heavy settings.

QUESTIONS:

1. Is this just the 3700X's limit in Apex, or is something else wrong?

2. Did a recent patch make Apex worse on Zen 2?

3. Is RAM timing tuning worth it with 4 sticks? (tRFC is 560)

4. Best FPS cap method for steady frametimes?

NOTE: PC gaming performance doesn't feel as good and the CPU is bottlenecking. How do I fix it? Can't upgrade atm.

Thanks!

My pc specs ryzen7 5600h 3050 4gb vram and 16/512 cant find display option to change or use dlss or fsr in the new gow 3 pc port. The display settings option is not available to me. Can anyone help me to fix this me?

Looking for apps like nvidia profile inspector reply if you actually know one that can do the trick no sketchy stuff please thank you.

Logically, how much FPS can I get on my Ryzen 3 7320u?

EDIT : THANK YOU EVERYONE I FIXED IT by changing the driver version and setting the fps limit to the max in-game (fps limit was off before) im now back to very smooth gameplay

Hello

So i have this Asus A15 TUF laptop (see specifics down )for a couple weeks now

Been running Cyberpunk 2077 at custom (low) settings at 70-80 fps smoothly for a while then recently its almost impossible to run the game

Been lagging so hard its so hard to just enjoy the game.

I have other games installed but they arent as demanding but i still notice a slight performance drop

For example pragmata at medium setting was running fine at 100fps but now i get 70 and it lagged a little during a big fight

My Nvidia driver is up to date so i dont understand this performance drop and the cyberpunk situation is the most irritating one as its so bad when i use to be able to run the game smoothly i even tried to put everything on low and i can only play the game at like 24 to 30 fps which is unacceptable

So any recommendations or potential solutions ?

Laptop specifics :

Ryzen 7 155 W/ Radeon 740M

8GB DDR5 4800MHz ram

ssd 512gb

RTX 3050 4GB VRAM

Running on windows 11

Small prior detail but I'm just kinda new to pc/steam gaming and I'm on a laptop so I'm here haven't been able to figure it out on my own because I don't know the editions of components like how good a i7-1360p is or anything, I'm sorry if this is a common ask but I am just really bummed because this game seems so fun! Anyway I'm not 100% sure which model I have but I think it's a Lenovo Slim 7i? Specs as follows for people that know (just from looking at my device info in settings)

Processor : 13th gen intel(r) core (tm) i7-1360 (2.2GHz)
Ram: 16gb (it says 15.7gb usable?)
Graphics card : intel(r) iris(r) xe graphics (128MB)
I have enough storage
System type : 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

I'm running windows 11, version 25H2 apparently

From what I've looked up I should have enough memory but I'm hitting like 85-90% usage when I run it (it says \\\~4500-5000 Mb is from deadlock which is about 60-65% it says idk)

I reduce my resolution to 1680x1050 because lower that the window gets real messed up for some reason and dropped my render quality to 40% (which is the lowest I can) and everything is the lowest option/off to try to reduce graphics and in the sandbox I'm usually about 20fps, I got 40 for a few minutes at one point and it felt wonderful but idk why. If I could stay at 40 I would genuinely play the game and be happy enough about it.

I'm really not sure what to do, if I just ain't got the hardware for it then Thats ok but from what I could find my cpu and ram should be fine?

If anyone needs extra details I'm happy to provide!

I bought this new Arduino board for Robotics, but I tested few games:

• Crysis
• CS: Source
• Hades
• Ori and the Blind Forest
• The Witcher: Enhanced Edition
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

SoC is IQ8275, 8 Core CPU, 16GB RAM, Adreno 623, M.2 Gen 4x4 SSD, the most compareble devices are Jetson Orin Nano and Raspberry Pi 5, I made comparison table on my blog.

Runs normal Ubuntu 24.04 and pulls ~ 20W so don't expect any AAA titles to run, also no DX12 due to drivers/DXVK 2 incompatibility (there are missing VK extensions in Turnip driver).

I used Wine and Box86/64 to run games, installed with Pi-apps.

I have a pc, cheap pc on LGA 1155, my motherboard is Fujitsu D2990-a3, my cpu is i5-3470, but 4/4 is… i have 2 options:
1. If my motherboard supports Xeon i can buy a E3 1230 v2
2. Or buy i7-3770 (i have a GPU), if motherboard doesn’t support Xeon

So, who had experience with this topic, what should i do? (Sorry for my English)

It's an excellent game for older/weaker PCs.

I have the Epic Games launcher installed just to check the free games every few days, which I am sure that's why they do it.
