How to get the best frame rate in South of Midnight
The publisher's minimum for South of Midnight is AMD RX 580 / Nvidia GTX 1060 with AMD Ryzen 3 1300X / Intel i3-8100, and the recommended hardware is AMD RX 6600 / Nvidia RTX 2060 / Intel Arc A580. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce RTX 2060 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 2070 Super does the same at 1440p, and a Radeon RX 7800 XT 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.
