The first two rows are the publisher's numbers. The rows below are our own estimates from the scoring model.
How to get the best frame rate in SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS
The publisher's minimum for SONIC X SHADOW GENERATIONS is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti, 1GB or AMD Radeon HD 5770, 1GB with Intel Core i3-2120 or FX-6300, and the recommended hardware is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780, 3GB or AMD Radeon RX 470, 4GB or Intel Arc A310, 4GB. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a Radeon RX 460 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce GTX 780 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce GTX 1660 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.
