What limits performance in Halo Infinite

The graphics card: frame rates in Halo Infinite rise with GPU speed.

Graphics card (GPU)

Main limit

60 FPS at 1080p needs about an RTX 3060 or RX 7600; a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 28 FPS.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

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

Video memory (VRAM)

Not stated

The publisher doesn't state a video memory requirement, so we don't estimate one.

Settings to lower first in Halo Infinite

  1. 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Halo Infinite 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.
