Check My PC →What limits performance in Company of Heroes
Your monitor's refresh rate, or the graphics card if it is slower. V-sync is always on unless the game is launched with -novsync (PCGamingWiki), so the frame rate stops at your monitor's refresh rate. Any recent card draws more than 60 FPS here, and each figure below shows what the card alone would reach.

Graphics card (GPU)
Not a limit
Even Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics runs up to your refresh rate (the card alone: about 85 FPS) at 1080p.
Processor (CPU)
No measured limit
We couldn't place the publisher's processor requirement ("3.0 Ghz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent") on our scale. We have no measured processor limit for Company of Heroes, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.
Video memory (VRAM)
256 MB (rec. spec)
The recommended spec lists 256 MB of video memory, less than any current graphics card has, so it won't limit you.
