How to get the best frame rate in Sonic Frontiers
The publisher's minimum for Sonic Frontiers is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660, 2 GB or AMD Radeon HD 7870, 2 GB with Intel Core i5-3470 or AMD Ryzen 5 1400, and the recommended hardware is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070, 8 GB or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56, 8 GB. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 2060 Super does the same at 1440p, and a Radeon RX 6800 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.
