What limits performance in Assassin's Creed® Unity

The graphics card, but only on older or budget hardware: any recent card holds 60 FPS at 1080p.

Graphics card (GPU)

Not a limit on most PCs

Even a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 74 FPS at 1080p.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

Assassin's Creed® Unity recommends an FX-8350 or equivalent; a Ryzen 5 3600 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Assassin's Creed® Unity, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.

Video memory (VRAM)

2 GB min · 3 GB rec

The minimum spec lists 2 GB of video memory and the recommended spec 3 GB, less than any current graphics card has, so it won't limit you.
