Processor (CPU)
No measured limit
We couldn't place the publisher's processor requirement ("Quad-Core 3 GHz or better") on our scale. We have no measured processor limit for Empyrion - Galactic Survival, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.
Video memory (VRAM)
2 GB min · 4 GB rec
The minimum spec lists 2 GB of video memory and the recommended spec 4 GB. 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 Empyrion - Galactic Survival
- 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Empyrion - Galactic Survival offers it. Rendering fewer pixels is the biggest single saving.
- 2Then shadows, volumetric effects (fog, clouds, lighting) and ambient occlusion: in most games these cost the most frame rate for the least visible difference.
- 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.
