Frame-rate limit source: PCGamingWiki

Graphics card (GPU)

Not a limit on most PCs

Even a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 117 FPS at 1080p.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

Paladins® recommends a Phenom II X4 965 or equivalent; a Ryzen 5 3600 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Paladins®, 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 Paladins®

  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 54 FPS at 1080p.
  3. 3Paladins® won't run above 175 FPS, so once your PC reaches it, spend spare performance on higher settings rather than lowering them further.
