Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

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 Mafia: Definitive Edition

  1. 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Mafia: Definitive Edition 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.
