How to get the best frame rate in Riven
The publisher's minimum for Riven is AMD Radeon RX 5700XT; NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB; at least 6GB VRAM with AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Eight-Core Processor (16 CPUs), ~3.7GHz; Intel i5 7000 series, and the recommended hardware is AMD Radeon RX 6800XT; NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB; at least 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 1080 Ti is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a Radeon RX 6800 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 5080 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.
