What limits performance in Mortal Kombat 11

The graphics card, but only on older or budget hardware: any recent card holds 60 FPS at 1080p.

Graphics card (GPU)

Not a limit on most PCs

Even a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 74 FPS at 1080p.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

Mortal Kombat 11 recommends an FX-6300 or equivalent; a Ryzen 5 3600 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Mortal Kombat 11, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.

Video memory (VRAM)

6 GB (rec. spec)

The recommended spec lists 6 GB of video memory. 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 Mortal Kombat 11

  1. 1Nothing, on a dedicated graphics card: even a budget card holds 60 FPS at 1080p.
  2. 2On integrated graphics, lower the resolution or render scale first. Intel Iris Xe averages about 34 FPS at 1080p.
  3. 3Texture quality only if your card has less than 6 GB of video memory. With enough memory, textures cost little frame rate, so keep them high.
