Graphics card (GPU)
Main limit
60 FPS at 1080p needs about an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT; a budget GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT averages about 20 FPS.
Processor (CPU)
No measured limit
Palworld recommends a Core i5-12400 or equivalent; a Core i5-12400 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for Palworld, 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 Palworld
- 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Palworld 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 last: it costs little frame rate as long as your card has enough video memory.
