Graphics card (GPU)
Not a limit on most PCs
Even a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 117 FPS at 1080p.
Processor (CPU)
No measured limit
We couldn't place the publisher's processor requirement ("Intel® Core™ i5 – 680 @ 3.6GHz") on our scale. We have no measured processor limit for Call of Duty®: Ghosts, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.
Video memory (VRAM)
4 GB (rec. spec)
The recommended spec lists 4 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 Call of Duty®: Ghosts
- 1Nothing, on a dedicated graphics card: even a budget card holds 60 FPS at 1080p.
- 2On integrated graphics, lower the resolution or render scale first. Intel Iris Xe averages about 54 FPS at 1080p.
- 3Texture quality only if your card has less than 4 GB of video memory. With enough memory, textures cost little frame rate, so keep them high.
