Graphics card (GPU)

Not a limit

Even Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics reaches the game's 30 FPS cap at 1080p.

Processor (CPU)

No measured limit

We couldn't place the publisher's processor requirement ("2GHz+") on our scale. We have no measured processor limit for Undertale, so the frame rates on this page assume your processor isn't holding the graphics card back.

Video memory (VRAM)

128 MB min · 512 MB rec

The minimum spec lists 128 MB of video memory and the recommended spec 512 MB, less than any current graphics card has, so it won't limit you.
