Graphics card (GPU)

Main limit

60 FPS at 1080p needs about a GTX 1660 Super or RX 6600; a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 40 FPS.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

Chivalry 2 recommends a Core i7-6700 or equivalent; a Ryzen 5 3600 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Chivalry 2, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.

Video memory (VRAM)

2 GB (min. spec)

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

Settings to lower first in Chivalry 2

  1. 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Chivalry 2 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 last: it costs little frame rate as long as your card has enough video memory.
