How to get the best frame rate in God of War Ragnarök
The publisher's minimum for God of War Ragnarök is NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) or AMD RX 5500 XT (8GB) or Intel Arc A750 with Intel i5-4670k or AMD Ryzen 3 1200, and the recommended hardware is NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super or AMD RX 5700 or Intel Arc A770. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce RTX 2060 Super is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 3090 Ti at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
Open world and story games are limited by the graphics card in busy areas and by video memory in new locations. If you see stutter when you enter a new area, lower the texture setting a step. Turn on upscaling if the game offers it.
