FPS and compatibility scores are estimates from catalog data and hardware benchmarks. Real results vary with drivers, settings, cooling, and background apps. Upcoming titles may use AI/heuristic specs until official requirements ship.

Optimization Tips

Performance is highly optimized for high refresh rate monitors; frame rate is capped by engine logic in some specific cutscenes.
Ensure the game is installed on an SSD to minimize micro-stutter during screen transitions.
Disable V-Sync in-game and use your GPU driver's control panel for G-Sync/FreeSync to reduce input latency.
If experiencing frame drops, check that your monitor refresh rate is correctly set in Windows display settings.
Close background browser tabs to ensure the CPU can handle the game's precise physics calculations.

Performance Estimates

Estimated average FPS. Above 60 is smooth; real results vary by settings and drivers.
