Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

RuneScape ® recommends a Core i3-6100 or equivalent; a Ryzen 5 3600 or anything faster clears that. We have no measured processor limit for RuneScape ®, 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.
