How to get the best frame rate in Goat Simulator 3
The publisher's minimum for Goat Simulator 3 is GTX 1050 Ti (4GB VRAM) with i5 4690k, and the recommended hardware is GTX 1070 (8GB VRAM). We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce GTX 1070 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 3060 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 4070 at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
Strategy and simulation games lean on the processor, especially late in a game when there is a lot to calculate. A faster graphics card will not fix a slow late game, but a faster CPU and more RAM will.

Memory and processor
Memory
Minimum 8 GB, recommended 16 GB. 16 GB is the comfortable amount for current games.
Processor
A processor like the Core i3-10300 meets the recommended CPU level. For many fps in fast games, a quick CPU matters as much as the graphics card. Check your pairing.
