What limits performance in Black Myth: Wukong

The graphics card: frame rates in Black Myth: Wukong rise with GPU speed.

Graphics card (GPU)

Main limit

60 FPS at 1080p needs about an RTX 4070 Super or RX 7900 XT; a mid-range RTX 4060 or RX 7600 averages about 33 FPS.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

Black Myth: Wukong recommends a Core i7-9700 or equivalent; a Core i5-12400 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Black Myth: Wukong, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.

Video memory (VRAM)

6 GB (min. spec)

The minimum spec lists 6 GB of video memory. On a card with less, lower texture quality first: running out of video memory shows up as stutter or blurry textures, not as a lower average.

Settings to lower first in Black Myth: Wukong

  1. 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Black Myth: Wukong offers it. Rendering fewer pixels is the biggest single saving.
  2. 2Then shadows, volumetric effects (fog, clouds, lighting) and ambient occlusion: in most games these cost the most frame rate for the least visible difference.
  3. 3Texture quality only if your card has less than 6 GB of video memory. With enough memory, textures cost little frame rate, so keep them high.
