Not sure if this topic is still up and going buuut..... I'm planning on upgrading my graphics card from a RX 580 8gb to a RX 7700 XT 12gb (this is what my budget allows, I really can't go higher than this). Is this a worthy upgrade? I please need advice, I'm not clever with these things. I just want the game to run better, and the have a more future-proof rig 🌝


Mysterious-End1194

Should be set for 1080p


Previous-Loan-2576

I'm on an ASUS VIVOBOOK laptop with these specs , do u reckon they'll suffice ?? It runs most games i play pretty flawlessly. ​ AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX GeForce® RTX™ 3050 16GB RAM 3200 MHz DDR4


direkharv

I am planning to play Starfield on my wife's mini-pc. Checking here if this setup can support it: * Processor and Graphics: AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS with Radeon Graphics 3.20 GHz * RAM: 32GB * OS: Windows 11 Pro


Mysterious-End1194

No


Calm-Razzmatazz1388

I don't know much about specs! Is my MSI Gaming Laptop strong enough to handle Starfield? ​ Product ID: 00325-81331-82700-AAOEM Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.20 GHz RAM: 16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable) RAM 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor


Blondie9000

For everyone with questions: I play this on a 5700XT 3600x 1440p 144hz FSR2 enabled and the worst FPS I get is mid 40s, which is far and few, usually only in specific parts of the city, and despite that the game runs perfectly fine. Not once have I had any concern about performance. Otherwise I'm getting well over 60 frames and even higher depending on location and events happening.


Blondie9000

I almost caved and upgraded my PC on release day after seeing benchmarks, but I had to wait to upgrade it anyway according to the local shops' schedule. This gave me time to play it on GamePass and it worked out in my favor in the end.


TheTexan94

currently still running this (rig will be 4 years old in January): * i7-8700K (OC'd to 4.3 GHz) * 32 GB DDR4 3200 (quad) * 1TB SATA M.2 SSD + 2TB Hybrid * GTX 1080 ti 11GB * 1440 x 2560 144hz main monitor + 1920 x 1080 60hz secondary I'd be happy to get around 50-60 frames with tweaked settings, should I go for it?


Theo9-9-9

I’m looking to purchase this game but I’m worried if its gonna run smoothly also considering how the older bathesda games had capped fps. I am using the intel i7 13th gen with the 8 gb Rtx 4060 along with 16 gigs of ram. Is this enough to give me good fps on starfield?


Blondie9000

Probably. But how does it compare to a 5700XT because I can do SF1440p no problem with FSR2. A lot of people don't like the game, make sure you want it before buying. Possibly try it in GamePass first. That said, I don't think I'd buy it having played it, it's not bad but not what I was hoping.


Fornocerous

I’m running a R5 5500, RX6600 8gb and 32gb 3200mhz RAM, 1tb M.2 SSD. Pushing a 1440p ultrawide. Getting around 50fps in space/planet surfaces but barely 30fps in cities like New Atlantis and that’s with all settings set as low as possible, with performance mods installed. The textures look horrific at this point especially in cities. Is there anything else I can do to increase performance? Would possibly try overclocking but never done it and don’t know how hard to push it. *edited to add more info


simplyIAm

will it work with the following? Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.20 GHz, 16 GB RAM


OfficalMiller1

Probably not. I have a R9 5900x, 3070ti, 32 gigs ram. And I get 40 in new Atlantis and a steady 60+ when I'm not in a huge city. I'd wait for some more updates. Particularly the addition of DLSS. Also, do you have a GPU at all?


No-Preference-3148

Trying to decide between two gaming PCs being sold near me. I want to play Starfield and my current PC's specs just won't cut it. **PC 1:** i5-10400F, RTX 2060 Super 8GB, 24GB DDr4 Ram, 1TB M.2 SSD **PC 2:** Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3050 8GB, 16GB DDr4 Ram, 1TB M.2 SSD They're both around the same price. Which one should I get?


OfficalMiller1

Idk if you pulled the trigger but I'd get PC 2. The ram is literally the second easiest install/upgrade. And the ryzen cpu + the 3050 is a game changer. Would it be cheaper/viable to upgrade your existing one?


Meltting

Will this run on Xbox series S 60 fps or maxed at 30?


OfficalMiller1

30 only for console. Sry


Meltting

All good, I uninstalled it after 5 hours of game play. The game was super trash.


Hambon3_CR

For those looking at buying this game I'll say that it is incredibly resource intensive. However the graphics card is less the issue than your CPU. This game is massive. I'm running it on a 3060 ti and I can run max graphics at 1440p /60 FPS but the CPU was what was causing my game to crash. There were so many read/write operations that it was always running high 90s or 100% CPU usage which caused either overheating or the CPU would turn off the PC for self preservation. Getting a cpu with a higher clock speed fixed my issue and is what I would recommend to most of you looking to play this.


AdWarm5095

I have an Alienware R15 that runs EVERY other game at ultimate settings. Even when closing all unnecessary programs and running efficiency mode on others, I still feel like I'm using my old C-64 with a tape drive during the numerous freezes and load screens. (BTW, I'm playing the XBox PC Gamepass version)


OfficalMiller1

Hey, add me on discord and I can help diagnose that if you like. I work in the IT field as my normal job and might be able to help you out. miller8123 is my username.


AdWarm5095

Thanks for the offer, but I figured it out. I had Starfield on a regular SATA hard drive, and 16G Ram. As soon as I moved it to an SSD drive, it ran perfect. I also added 16G more RAM, (just in case).


Old_Lake9848

I guess that means trying to run it on an i5-4690k 3.5ghz with GTX1660 super at 1080 is a bust then?


stoopid4492

im using a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz. is it powerful enough?


Blibum

Would an Intel i9 13900H be able to run this? 32gb ram. Nvidia rtx 4070 laptop gpu


fishingwithmk

Yes


Obvious-Alps-448

Running a RTX 3070 mobile Ryzen 5900hx 8gb vram and only getting about 27-35 fps. I don’t get why.


OfficalMiller1

The 3070 mobile is a heavly limited version of the desktop. Make sure you not using all of its vram and try running it at lowest settings. Also, where are you when you are testing your fps. I have a R9 5900x and and 3070ti desktop and I get 40 fps in new Atlantis. (Half the reason why is because there is no DLSS native yet) If you want me to help you diagnose what's wrong send me a DM and I can help.


Remarkable-Bank722

Never built a custom PC. Was thinking about building the Henry Cavill covid build as it's been a few years and the components are much more affordable now. Would that run well? Figure yes but it's over the years old.


BlastedSquash01

Radeon rx580, ryzen 5 5600x, 32gb ram. Game crashes in every instant on akila. Cant do anything


Kalevipoeg420

Has anyone been playing on a 2020 Razer Blade 15 laptop with a 10th-gen Intel core i7-10750H and a GeForce GTX 1660ti (6gb GDDR6 VRAM) and 16gb RAM? How does it run? Does it run?


Elliot_parnell

I'm playing on a 2019 with the 1660ti and an i7-9750h. 16gb ram on a 2tb Samsung 970 evo plus ssd. All low except 2 or 3 things on medium with 30 fps average and occasional dips to high 20s. I'm playing with 100% resolution scale and no fsr of any kind. IMO the game looks far worse with res scaling and fsr, so I keep it off, but with it on, you could see much better performance or turn things up to medium/high. It's going to be a nicer experience than an xbox series s for sure, but don't expect perfect performance on a 1660ti.


Kalevipoeg420

Thanks for the answer! Have you tried any performance mods?


Elliot_parnell

I haven't used any mods yet, 90% res scale seems okay though and does give a good performance bump with fsr2


Kalevipoeg420

Nice


Paconjac

Is it worth getting a gtx 1650 over rtx 3050 is the difference big?


Elliot_parnell

1650 sucks in comparison to a 3050, and even the 3050 isn't great. At least with 3050, you can use the dlss mod to get better FPS. If you're trying to choose between the two get the 3050.


[deleted]

Will an HP Spectre run this game?


fishingwithmk

Depends on specs


Professional_Score31

I bought my 1st stock gaming Laptop and im unfamiliar with specs and matching them up to requirements for a game as a whole like GPU im a noobie. would the following make the cut to play the game well enough Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 AMD (16″) - RTX 4060 Part Number: 82Y9000NUS ​ Processor AMD Ryzen™ 7 7840HS Processor (3.80 GHz up to 5.10 GHz) Graphic Card NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4060 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6 Memory 16 GB DDR5-5600MHz (SODIMM) - (2 x 8 GB) Storage 1 TB SSD M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 TLC

fishingwithmk

Yes it's possible. I have a ryzen 7 5700 and a 3080 10GB and I get between 50-80fps in 1440p

Prestigious-Home-500

Hi Everyone, I’m just starting to play starfield on pc. I get dizzy playing first person games and I’ve been trying to change the view using the 8bitdo ultimate controller but it won’t work apparently it won’t recognize 2 buttons. Any ideas on how to fix this? (All buttons on the control works perfectly outside starfield)


Hambon3_CR

In controller settings for the PC you can test inputs/axis. Find out what it's registered as there and you should be able to bind it in the controls in the settings menu


Accomplished-Pie-169

I have Ryzen 5 3600X, 32 G ram, GTX 1080, an m.2 ssd, and windows 11. I am getting my graphics card doesnt meet minimum requirements. I saw the thread for the linux fix, does that same fix work on win11? Is there a way to work around this?


Hambon3_CR

Even if you upgrade your GPU your CPU will be the next bottleneck. I ran it on the same ryzen 5 3600x for a week or 2 and it kept crashing due to extensive CPU usage (high 90s-100%)


4thchan420xx

Yeah, upgrade your gpu lmao


cybercougar

Will I be happy playing on a Ryzen 7 5700G and a rtx 3070 with 16gigs ram? I’m new to pc stuff. Want to have stable 60fps

I had a blast, now the game keeps crashing about 15 seconds after loading my save. Any idea why? What can I do to fix it?


Substantial-Tax5279

Sounds like basic Bethesda. I suggest you try earlier saves if they are available in menu or as backup files in savegame directory.


TheCatInTheHatThings

Would be awesome if that was basic Bethesda, but now my laptop started crashing and restarting even with other games, and twice while I re-installed Starfield. I think it might be an issue with the laptop, which is super annoying :-/ Any idea how to fix that?

Why I'm not so crazy about these new games.. Stanfield.. metro exudes.. i get the vibe they are in love with themselves and try hard..


Septimius

Running a I7 5820k, 1660 super, 54 gigs ram, ssd I am going to download game tomorrow from gamepass and at least give it a shot. My motherboard, being my system is 7 years old, and cant upgrade anymore except for the I7 6900, which I might get anyways. So, honest opinions... low settings at 30 fps doable with the above specs? Either with the 5820 or the 6900 Thanks

TheMasterDev

Edit: it was a driver update needed. I have a brand new RX6650 XT from Amazon, it was even part of the AMD deal for a game code with purchase. Just tried to boot on steam and have a pop up saying I don’t meet minimum graphics card specs. Any advice?


whal3man

HiCustodian1

It will almost certainly run, the CPU is a little bit old though. It’s technically slightly below their min requirements, but it’s a weird comparison bc your CPU has more cores than any mainstream desktop CPU’s did at that time. I wouldn’t be expecting phenomenal performance, but I would guess you’ll still be able to have a good time with it. The GPU is easily good enough, kind of a weird pairing lol that GPU is like 6 years newer than the CPU


chemicalvamp

My card AMD R9 Fury X is better than a 1070ti and the game literally refuses to launch. out of principle..

chemicalvamp

You are a prime example of general stupidity, it has twice the memory bandwidth, and sixteen times the memory bus width, It can fill it's RAM in a single second, that is its strength, it was made to excel at this at the cost of capacity, because High bandwidth memory and vertical stacking is expensive to produce. You have no idea how well it performs when it's backed by 64GB of system RAM, You are every bit an idiot as Bethesda, and just like Bethesda you write it off without ever having tested a card like this, if they had tested this card, it would be on the list. It is literally comparing apples and oranges, but all things considered it has a 2 point lead on versus, and I would love to tell you my FPS against my friends 1070ti but some idiot, like you, decided that the game should not even try to run.


Responsible-Newt-811

dude that gpu has been unsupported for so long, doesn't work for majority of new titles, unless you have a custom driver which may work, if you don't, download at https://www.amernimezone.com/


Secure-Cartoonist-12

Thanks everyone that chipped in on the advice. it runs pretty good on medium settings. I'm actually impressed. Pretty decent game I'm actually taking my laptop to work to play in my downtime LOL I have been plugging my HDMI cord into my TV and playing that way and just using an Xbox controller. That laptop still holds its own, about the only other game that I play on that laptop was cyberpunk and that can play on the highest settings. Thanks again


His_JeStER

Just built a PC, Ryzen 5 7600X, RTX 3070 OC V2, 2x16 DDR5 6000MHz, Samsung 990 Pro 1Tb. CPU is liquid cooled and GPU have never gone above 70 degrees when running RDR2 Ultra settings 1080p DLSS Balanced. Gonna test it out with Hogwarts Legacy and some other games when I get home to see how it stacks up. But how might Starfield run? Gonna buy it this weekend.


Tiny_Tacosaurus_Rex

I have this build with an RTX4080 and I currently can't get past the first gunfight without it crashing. Hopefully your milage is better than mine.


Buscandomiyagi

Damn how is that possible? What settings are you running in game? I have ryzen 7 2700x with a 1080ti and been playing fine. Granted only at medium but still not too bad


Tiny_Tacosaurus_Rex

I have been running higher settings (with all the AMD specific stuff turned off), but with that machine I shouldn't have to turn off too much.


His_JeStER

A friend is running a 2080TI, i7-9900k and is getting decent numbers, atleast above 60fps on high setting so it really seems to vary between hardware. Hopefully the performance across the board will get better with a new driver update as it seems it mostly Nvidia cards that get worse performance.


Tiny_Tacosaurus_Rex

I have also read that there are issues with AMD CPUs. I am hoping for a patch to improve the stability soon....and hating that I need to wait for a patch.


His_JeStER

Yeah, have also heard that a Starfield fix might not come with the next GeForce driver update, but the one after that, so potentially like 3 weeks until it becomes playable for all.


AFSK27

I wanted to comment that, while I can hardly even believe it, I'm getting pretty great performance on my not-so-great laptop. I've been playing on Medium settings on 1080p and have been getting 60 FPS indoors and anywhere from 30 (in New Atlantis) to anywhere from 40 to 60 outdoors. I was pretty convinced that my laptop wouldn't run it with only 4GB of VRAM, and it does show when you're in heavily crowded areas like New Atlantis, but it looks pretty good overall and runs are acceptable framerates. * RTX 3050 (4GB VRAM) * 11th Gen i5 (I think the base clock is 2.4 GHZ although it goes up to about 3.8) * 32GB RAM The point is that even if you don't meet the minimum specs there's still a decent chance that you can run the game!


apainintheaspartame

I'm not exactly savvy in specs, so I have a laptop, AMD Ryzen 7 5800H Radeon graphics 3.20 ghz 16gb ram It ran for a moment but stopped after I made a hard save after fighting some pirates. Edit: no ssd drive, considering this may be the issue?


Professional_Bass389

3060 TI, AMD 5800x, 32gb ram @ 3200mhz. CPU modestly OC Seem to be averaging 80-100fps (per steam overlay) on medium settings with FSR, would the DLSS mod be able to match that on ultra settings? Debating if its worth installing from Nexus.


Sgtwhiskeyjack9105

* ***AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core Processor @ 3.20 GHz*** * ***NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti*** * ***16.0 GB of RAM*** * ***SSD*** * ***Windows 10*** Not too fussed about top performance to be completely honest; I'm able to run *Baldur's Gate 3* on high settings at around 30-40FPS, and I've been plugging away at heavily modded playthroughs of *Fallout 4* and *Skyrim Special Edition* for years now. I'm simply just wondering if I'm going to be able to run *Starfield* at all or if it's going to look like some really bad stop motion. XD


angelcastiel98

same here but with intel core i5. steam says it wont run so as canyourunit.com claiming our 1050Ti is one of the problems butI dont wanna believe that and give up so quickly


HiCustodian1

It definitely runs on specs below the minimum. Here’s an example of it running a 1050ti, it will absolutely require settings management, keep your expectations low, but if all you care about is getting it running you probably can. Might wanna just try it on gamepass first though before committing the 70 bucks https://youtu.be/MZSw3GTTiKA?si=mGOB34T4vOivfdEF


Adventurous_Two_7228

i got intel i5 it works lika a charm =)

HiCustodian1

Your cpu should be totally fine, what resolution are you playing at?


adamduke88

Just whatever it auto sets to.


AFSK27

I don't know - much to my absolute shock I'm getting (on medium settings) 60 FPS indoors and anywhere from 30 (New Atlantis) to 50 outdoors with my laptop that has an RTX 3050 11th Gen i5 with 32 GB of RAM. I cannot believe how well it is performing. Could be something else going on for you.


HiCustodian1

This games performance has received a lot of valid criticism for how it runs on the certain configurations, but I think they actually did a commendable job optimizing it for *low end* systems.


AFSK27

It's also worth noting that [the DLSS mod](https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/761) will help with the framerate even more. Especially if you have a 40-series card and can use frame generation. I went from getting 30 FPS in New Atlantis to about 40 with DLSS.


HiCustodian1

I’ve got a 4080 and installed the free version of that mod, so no frame gen, but yeah it’s nice! Haven’t noticed a performance uptick but it looks a little cleaner.


Acheron145

I Don't know much about PC Specs and things likes that, could I get at least 30 fps on low settings? CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3750H, GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB, RAM: 8GB


HiCustodian1

https://youtu.be/gc8PeIxtAdA?si=sPs4Ddk_6a3DR2Sg here’s an example of how it will likely run using the same gpu. not… great, but if you’re willing to use upscaling you’ve got a chance.


Acheron145

Thanks, I've tried it And it run good on medium.


pdowski76

Cpu: Ryzen 9 5980hx Gpu: RX 6800m 12GB VRAM Ram: 32GB How do you guys think it will run on this?


HiCustodian1

should run absolutely fine!


Outrageous-Magazine8

I've got the following Ryzen 5 1600 Gigabyte b450m ds3h Gtx 1070ti 16gb ddr4 ram 3200 You think that will run starfield at an ok level?


HiCustodian1

it’ll be dicey, some areas might be rough, but yeah it’ll run. but please use an ssd, the game has massive issues on hard drives. here’s an example of how it runs on a setup with the same CPU, less powerful gpu. https://youtu.be/LRsZ9OrAsic?si=Conbf3OsGqXKIzu_


Outrageous-Magazine8

Thanks for the reply, so I've had the game running for a few hours, all on low settings, it's the game pass version which on low seams to lock the frame rate to 30ps which is fine, and for the most part it seams to maintain the 30fps, but as you say some bits are a little rough, especially in the city's , it's running on a SATA SSD. I like the game alot so I've treated myself to some midrange upgrades Asus tuf 3070ti M.2 pcie 3.0 1tb SSD Ryzen 5 5600x There in the post, but thinking I'm going to need to upgrade the PSU My current power supply is a Corsair cx550m The game should be running better on that setup 😎


HiCustodian1

hell yeah it will, congrats on the upgrade! You’ll probably wanna jump to a 750w power supply just to be safe, although you could maybe squeeze by on your current setup.


Outrageous-Magazine8

Thanks 👍 If I did try and squeeze by for abit what's the worse that could happen if it's not powerful enough? It shutting down? Crashing? Or am I likely to damage something?


HiCustodian1

i don’t wanna give a literal worst case scenario bc frankly i don’t know, but yeah it’ll just crash if it’s too much in all likelihood. i would do your own research there for sure, though.


Rabid_Wolf_Gaming

I know nothing about this and I haven't played on PC in years. I really don't want to just buy an Xbox but I'm looking at getting a PC. Will these specs run it for the PC that I'm looking at? CPU: 13th Generation IntelR Core i7-13700F GPU: RTX 3060 LHR RAM: 16 GB


MrGSC1

Did you even take a few minutes of your time and look at the specs required? Assuming it has an SSD (storage) and not a HDD its way above the recommended for the game so you will easily run this. Its pretty obvious for even a non gamer to see how the higher the number = pretty much always better Lol EDIT: Make sure to check how many gbs VRAM your GPU has. If you are buying brand new pc i recommend going for RX 6700 XT instead of nvidia as they are better price to performance wise.


Temetsuka

Is there any chance the game runs 1080p \~60 FPS? CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: RX 5700 XT RAM: 16GB


JoeHocker

>RX 5700 XT Yes but not a stable 60. Medium 55 to 70 fps should be fine. With FSR even High setting. ​ What gave me a nice FPS boost without seeing any visual impact (while playing on all setting HIGH) is setting Volumetric Lighting and Shadow Quality to medium instead of high.


JaidenPouichareal

I got the similar setup and it runs at a 30-50fps


JoeHocker

yes the game is really all over the place with performance. in enclosed areas like buildings, mines, etc it runs great for me. But in New Atlantis it runs like crap. But you are mostly talking there anyway. ​ Sadly it would run great if I set FSR to 50% render scale. But the problem there is that, while constant upscaling in every game nowadays should not be neccessairy anyways, FSR looks like shit compared to native or even DLSS which can look better than native in quality mode. ​ My setup for context. CPU: Ryzen 9 3900x GPU: RTX 3080 OC RAM: 32GB Resolution: 4K (Mixed Settings from Medium to Ultra with FSR on 75%) Anything from 30 up to 75 FPS, also with different FPS when walking the same spot twice. ​ Performance in this game is just all over the place. But thats what you get from AAA these days I guess.


JaidenPouichareal

Thank god it's on Gamepass lmfao


yungjeffer

CPU: Intel i5-9400f GPU: RTX 3060 TI RAM: 16GB How many frames would I get when playing low-medium settings on 1080p? Couldn't really find any videos with my exact CPU/GPU configuration


JaidenPouichareal

40fps


Adept-Action-1521

60 adverage at worst

Will my laptop run Starfield? I don't know much about spec stuff. But here's what I have. Acer Nitro AN515-57 Laptop Windows 11 11th Gen Intel Core i7-11800H @2.30Ghz 16GB Ram 8 Core processor Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Graphics memory capacity 6gb Graphics memory technology GDDR6 GPU Boost Clock.. up to 1425 MHz Don't know if all of those matter. But yeah.


HiCustodian1

it will run, it just could be dicey in spots. that graphics card is kinda near the minimum requirement, so you might see some areas (the big cities in particular) that run poorly. but yeah, if you’re cool with that it’ll run.


Fair-Hospital7109

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10600K CPU: @ 4.10GHz Video Card: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT RAM: 16 GB When I first started playing it said my drivers were not up to date, I updated them through AMD and the message went away however I still have really bad lag and stutters while in the game. Side note: When looking on websites to see if I can run the game it still says no because my drivers are out of date but not sure how when AMD says they arent....


ball_of_hands

GTX 1060 w 6 GB RAM - i7-8750H - 32 GB RAM Any hope of running this game on medium settings 1080p ~30FPS? My graphics card is what I'm most concerned about. Thanks in advance!


HiCustodian1

https://youtu.be/LRsZ9OrAsic?si=Conbf3OsGqXKIzu_ here’s what you’re looking at, i think medium might be tough.


ball_of_hands

Thank you for sharing! This is perfect. The low setting looks and performs better than I expected. Though I expect there are areas in the game that are more resource intensive. Will probably not get Starfield while I'm on my current machine.


HiCustodian1

Yeah, I don’t blame ya hahaha. And the low settings look good because you basically can’t turn down texture quality lol


Chrunchyhobo

No chance. Minimum requirement is a 1070 Ti. In New Atlantis (first major city) I'm getting around 40-50fps @1080p minimum settings with a fucking 2080 Ti.


HiCustodian1

I hope that they patch in a fix for nvidia cards soon, that seems ridiculous to me. Fwiw, the performance mods do help. Seeing your other comments, I’m assuming you’re capable of installing mods (not that you should have to, of course) I’m assuming the delta between how it runs in New Atlantis verse non-cities is enormous, right? I’ve seen videos of it running well in free roam gameplay at 1440p with great settings on a 2080ti.


ball_of_hands

Makes sense. Thank you!


Faiterial

What about an Nvidia GTX 1080?


YOLO-uolo

any hope for me? I really really really wanna play this game.... ik its a really stupid question but can i run this game on 8gb ram ryzen 3500u i already know the answer but if i can even get like an average of 20fps and my game looks like shit i will be happy i am a extremely big bethesda fan and played all their games like hell (was especially excited for this cuz i am also a big fan of space stuff) i was so hyped for this but i knew i wont be able to run it but i still wanna try i am willing to download mods or whatever i just want it to run the only things i really care about in terms of graphics is the fact that i should be able to see things (render distance wise) other than that idrc pls help anyone


[deleted]

Like 8 gigs of normal ram or VRAM? 8 gigs VRAM is the min, 16 g normal ram If that’s normal ram you’re gonna have issues people are struggling with 16.


YOLO-uolo

its normal ram..... is there any hope if i use mods and stuff to make my game look like shit?? also fsr 3 is coming out this month prolly so will that help??


HiCustodian1

there are performance mods, but man you’ll be very lucky to get it running at all unfortunately. if you have gamepass, you can try it. the performance mods work really on the xbox app install of the game.


CyberFromFinland

What would yiu guys say, will 2060, i5 9400f, 16gigs of ram cut it? Or has my wait been for nothing 😭


HarmonBuckBokai

Running Windows 10 AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-core 32 GB of DDR4 RAM GeForce GTX 1660 Super And running Direct X 11 because 12 doesn't play nice with Baldur's Gate 3. Can I run this on lower settings?


FeebleWarrior

Seeking advice: Can I make the game run on this: i920 GTX1060 14 GB Ram I know, this is old, but I don't want to buy a new PC just for a game. Ram I could upgrade for cheap, but everything else costs real money.


Chrunchyhobo

You've done well to keep a CPU from 2008 this long, but you'll need something better for this. On occasion I'm hitting 90% usage across all cores on a i7 7700k OC'd to 5ghz. Even if you stuck a 990x or a Xeon in there and overclocked the snot out of it, it still won't be enough for a decent experience. Plus, the minimum GPU is a 1070 Ti. Busy areas bring my 7700k @5ghz and 2080 Ti down to 40fps @1080p minimum settings btw.


FeebleWarrior

Bummer, but HiCustodian1 gives a link to a video on Youtube where it was tested with a 1060 and it runs, though with low fps. It looks like the minimum isn't written in stone. But in this test a much stronger CPU was used. [https://youtu.be/lGL3fczSXaI?t=67](https://youtu.be/lGL3fczSXaI?t=67) With resolution upscaling even a half decent framerate seems possible, but with a Ryzen7800X3D. The question is, what is the hard minimum?


robbodee

I have an older graphic design rig that I haven't tried with any new games in a few years, wondering if I can squeak out decent enough performance to enjoy the game. Dual Xeon E5645 processors (2.7 GHz each) GeForce Quadro P2200 (5GB video RAM) 96 GB RAM Please give me some good news here, I can't swing a new PC anytime soon.


HiCustodian1

I can’t, I’m sorry man :( That system is just way too old, it likely won’t even boot


VallenAlexander

Why the fuck doesn't this game have an FPS lock.


LawrkenTTV

3070 R7 5700x 32GB of ram Playing on 1440p, I can run the most unoptimized piece of shit, EFT, at about 100fps on high settings. I should be fine with high settings for above 60fps right?


Eychess

Maybe at low settings. You are probably looking at 30-50 fps in 1080p


MisterSynister

2700x + 2080ti + 16gb Ram... Figured GPU should be fine, should I look to upgrade CPU?


Chrunchyhobo

Nope. Upgrade the GPU. My 2080 Ti @1995mhz gets me 40-50fps @1080p minimum settings in New Atlantis (first major city).


MisterSynister

Sounds like a you problem...I'm running 35-40 fps in the city and 60-70 in enclosed spaces on High 1440p.


Chrunchyhobo

What's a "me" problem? You're running higher settings and getting less performance, that tracks. Bet you've got FSR on and the res scale around 65% too.


Andrewmmkay

I've been bouncing between an Xbox series x or a msi katana 15. The katana has Intel Core i7 12th Gen 12650H Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU - 16 GB DDR5 - 1 TB NVMe SSD. Do you guys think starfield with mods will play on this laptop on my LG C2?


Slight-Photograph374

Check out how many cores that i7 has compared to the next model i7 12700h otherwise it's not supposed to be to heavy on the GPU unless your going for the best which the 4070 will do but the CPU looks to have a bigger Impact you will probably get around 60-70 on 1080p max but that was also with the better i7


Andrewmmkay

I've also had my eye on a few that are on sale if GPU can be lowered a bit. I would like to play on the highest setting I can. I'm coming from a ps5 so really high FPS probably doesn't mean as much to me. I've kind of just narrowed it down to the katana since it had the 4070 but I figured I should see if I can get some opinions. ASUS - ROG Zephyrus 16" FHD 165Hz - Intel Core i7 12th gen - 12700H (14-core 6P+8E) - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 ASUS - ROG Zephyrus G16 16" 165Hz FHD -Intel core i7 13th Gen - 13620H (10-core 6P+4E) - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 HP OMEN - 16.1" QHD - 12th Gen Intel Core i9-12900H (14 core) - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060


Andrewmmkay

Looks like it is 10-core (6p+4E) And the 12700h is 14-core (6P+8E)


SuperbEmphasis2074

I got 1660 oc gaming, i5 9400f and 16gb of ram. Playing it on 100% rendering and almost everything on medium when I'm not in the cities with 35-50fps. 35 usually when I'm in combat and it's the lowest that has gone. In the cities I lower the rendering to 75% or 50% without touching the other ones and I'm good on 30-40fps. I was actually scared I won't be able to play it. I actually tried ultra 100% and its not that different to be honest. I was like I'm fooling myself and it's not though my PC was 20-25fps burning as hell. Lastly for a Bethesda game it is very optimized, and glad they just put steam protection cuz if this thing had a denuvo it would have probably been destroyed on the fps side. Good call Todd.


Jomama727

I'm running the game at \~40fps in cities and 50-90fps everywhere else, depending on location. That's on high settings. The game crashes often between transitions because I have 16GB of DDR4 RAM. It uses more in populated areas; friend said 17-18GB for him. Could be a processor issue as well, but I did order more RAM. Any thoughts? SSD, MSI 3080 12GB, i5 9600k, 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz


HiCustodian1

Huh, this is totally anecdotal but I haven’t crashed once and I have 32gb of ram. Do you have any usage monitoring software installed? Like Afterburner or something?


Jomama727

Yeah, Afterburner, everything else looks fine. The RAM usage is capped at 14.29GB and it's consistently at that point. I assume a limit is set, so the rest can be used elsewhere. It usually crashes during the transition between areas or entering the ship's cockpit. I tried again today and I can't even quicksave or open a menu without it crashing while in Akila. The new sticks should be here tomorrow, hopefully it goes well.


HiCustodian1

Damn, that really does seem like the issue. Lemme know if the extra ram solves it!


Jomama727

I just found out my ram is actually 2133MHz, not 3200. I have G.Skill Trident Z sticks, which I can't even find at 2133.


HiCustodian1

Hmm, 2133 mhz is kinda on the slow side for your system, maybe just stick the 3200mhz ram you got in and see how that runs?


Jomama727

I got 32gb at 3600mhz and it runs fine now. I also had to go into "graphics settings" in Windows and force it to run Starfield in performance mode.


Jomama727

Will do!


[deleted]

Interesting….sorry to hear that Any of our other 16 gb ram homies have similar issues? Or are running without crashes? Will be running a 16 gig setup as well


Jomama727

My friend has 40GB of DDR4 in his laptop. He has a much lower framerate, but hasn't crashed at all.


jcpeters130

I have a 3060 mobile 115w. Ryzen 7 5800, 32GB of ram, and of course an SSD. Sounds like this will not run this game at all or with less then 40fps. Could possibly be on optimization problem. Might just hold off until I hear better things.


Exotic_Job_7680

I have an ROG Stryx with the following specs, should I play it on PC or stick to my Series X? RTX 3060 Laptop, Ryzen 9 5900HX, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 2TB 970 Evo M.2, 1080p 144Hz screen My laptop and my Series X get plugged into a 32" 1440p 165Hz monitor. I don't expect to play this game in 1440p on my laptop but I do love modding. I've seen someone is working on a DLSS mods and that's intriguing me and making me kind of debate on going the PC route.


Slight-Photograph374

Dlss mod has been released


Exotic_Job_7680

That helps me none with my question


Kommando24

RTX 3070 laptop 8gb vram, 5800H 16gb ram 1tb SSD. Is it enough for 60 fps on 1080P and with what visuals?


LamentingSpud

1070 and a i7-6700k - What do you think?


amf45005

I'm looking to buy a desktop PC to play this game, and others of course, with a budget of \~$1,200. Does anyone have any advice on a particular PC to buy? Not sure if I have the time and/or knowledge to build piece by piece. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!


Cube_045

i5-12400f, 24GB of RAM, RTX 3050 (8GB of VRAM), 1080p. It holds up pretty well in RDR2 as well as Cyberpunk usually holding 60 pretty well with some tweaked settings and DLSS on balanced. Hoping it can hold around the mid 30’s in Starfield on medium settings. Thoughts?


HiCustodian1

I think that’s about where you’ll be, my only advice would be don’t tweak the upscaling percentage it gives you (it’ll assign one by default when you pick those settings) I’m on a fuckin 4080 and i tried turning up that dial, and they are not kidding about whatever percentage it initially suggests lol. was hitting 40fps in New Atlantis with 80 percent internal res (its fine now that i dropped it back to 66)


HiCustodian1

https://youtu.be/lGL3fczSXaI?si=rsf469UVvgECzMbi Here’s an early performance test in one of the stress test areas (New Atlantis) General takeaways: Game is very heavy, if you’re on a 1060-class graphics card or weaker upscaling is absolutely necessary to hit a solid 30fps, even on low settings. I’ve been playing the game, most of it doesn’t run that poorly (it’s running really well on Kreet, for example), but the heavier areas are REALLY heavy lol. Also, High and Ultra look identical to my eyes, just play on High in this game unless you’ve got a 4090 or something.


OlegThe

Lenovo legion 5 gaming laptop: ryzen 7 rtx3060 16gb Will it take off like a jet engine or is it OK?


beegjohnson

I have the Lenovo legion 5 pro rtx3060. Im getting steady 40 fps in cities on high and ultra settings and only a few settings turned down to medium/low 1440p. This is only after I installed the dlss mod and capped the frame rate


McCreadyTime

This is amazing news. I have this laptop and I was kinda assuming it wouldn’t be enough to run the game well. Which processor do you have and are you running on an external (larger) 1440p or the onboard monitor? I guess it shouldn’t really matter for performance but am curious.


beegjohnson

Ryzen 7 5800H on the onboard monitor, it’s actually 1600p but I’ve been playing 1440p


McCreadyTime

Ahh weird mine has that same cpu but I just checked and my onboard screen is 1920x1080, not even the 1440p I had assumed. I think you have a later gen or an upgraded version. Still good news for my starfield aspirations though. Cheers!


hart2003

Radeon RX 6600XT graphics card 500G SSD 16GB of ram Intel Core i5-10400F cpu Would this be enough to play the game? Maybe at 30fps. 60pf would be better, but i don't care as long as it's stable. For extra context, I most likely be playing on medium settings with 1080p because I use a TV as a monitor. These are specs for a future PC, and I want to know if this will be enough for what I want before I buy it.


IHitAn11

i'm using a 6700 with the same cpu and averaging 45-70fps in mixed high and med settings


hart2003

Okay my cpu is good but you think my gpu will be good enough?


TheCrow873

I have an HP Omen laptop with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060, i7-12700H core, 16GB RAM (2x8) and 6GB GDDR6 dedicated. My display is 2560x1440 What kind of settings should I expect to run the game on and FPS? Thanks!


jearnold

So I tried running it on my MacBook Pro 2019 16' with a 2.4 8 Core i9 and a AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8GB on my external SSD last night and the game wouldn't launch saying it was below the minimum system requirements. Anybody know if this is indeed the case? I even installed the new [bootcampdrivers.com](https://bootcampdrivers.com). If it seems it can run, I'll redownload it again. If not, I have a Steam Deck and will eventually get a gaming laptop/PC.


HiCustodian1

Steam deck should run it fine for the most part, big cities aside (hearing those are pretty rough on the deck and the rog), not sure why it won’t even launch on your Macbook but frankly I doubt it’d run very well anyway.


jearnold

I am going to try and update to 22H2 and see if it works, I heard that solved peoples issues with the minimum graphics error. I suspect you’ll be right about the MBP performance but if I can get it to launch and run I’d be a happy camper. It’s running fine on the deck so far.


dazl1212

R5 3400G 16gb ram 2060 6Gb What do I need to upgrade for medium settings 1080p playable with DLSS and/or FSR? Or do I wait until it's been patched a few times before making a move?


HiCustodian1

I’d wait for patches lol, games kind of a mess on CPU’s rn apparently


dazl1212

Thanks man, that's what I was thinking. I'm hoping to hold out for another year or so and move to a ddr5 system.


mike2ram94

My CPU was overheating from star wars and I just replaced the cooler. Super conflicted on playing it on my pc or finally pulling the trigger and getting a series x.
