FAQ

What counts as a low-end PC?+

Typically a budget or older GPU (GTX 1050/1650 class or integrated graphics), 8GB of RAM or less, and a mid-tier CPU. The games on this list have light rendering demands, so they stay smooth even on that hardware.

Can these games run without a graphics card?+

Many of them, yes — lighter titles on this list run on integrated graphics (Intel UHD/Iris Xe, AMD Vega iGPUs) at 1080p with reduced settings. Check any game's page to compare its exact requirements against your PC.

How are the FPS numbers estimated?+

Deterministically — each game's rendering demand is scored against a budget-GPU baseline (GTX 1650 class) at 1080p. Use the Can I Run It checker on each game's page to test your exact CPU, GPU and RAM.
