The first two rows are the publisher's numbers. The rows below are our own estimates from the scoring model.
STAR WARS: The Old Republic was released on July 21, 2020. Steam files it under Massively Multiplayer, RPG and Free To Play. It needs 75 GB of free storage, which is a large install, so check your drive before you buy.
The publisher's minimum for STAR WARS: The Old Republic is Star Wars: The Old Republic requires a video card that has a minimum of 1 GB of on-board RAM as well as support for Shader 3.0 or better. Examples include: Intel HD 3000 or better/AMD Radeon HD 7450/Nvidia GeForce 610 with AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4000+ or better / Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz or better, and the recommended hardware is not stated. Because the publisher lists no recommended tier, we assume hardware about 50 percent faster than the minimum for our estimates.
In our estimates a GeForce GT 710 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce GT 710 does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce GT 730 at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
In competitive games frame rate and low latency matter more than looks. Use Low or Medium shadows and effects, keep textures as high as your video memory allows, and aim to stay above your monitor's refresh rate.

The highest quality preset that still holds 60 fps. Estimates with a processor that does not limit the card.
Minimum 6 GB. 16 GB is the comfortable amount for current games.
A processor like the Intel Pentium G4560 meets the recommended CPU level. For many fps in fast games, a quick CPU matters as much as the graphics card. Check your pairing.
