Can you run Algorithm?
Algorithm is one of the more demanding games on PC. To reach its recommended tier you'll want a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070-class graphics card, with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 the floor just to launch at minimum settings. Plan for a recent high-end GPU rather than a mainstream one.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Below the bar | 0.77x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.43x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.19x |
A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.
Common GPUs
| Graphics card | Verdict |

| GTX 1060 6 GB | Below minimum |
| GTX 1060 Laptop | Below minimum |
| GTX 1650 4 GB | Below minimum |
| GTX 1650 Laptop | Below minimum |
| RTX 2060 6 GB | Playable |
| RTX 2060 Laptop | Playable |
| RTX 3060 12 GB | Runs well |
| RTX 3060 Laptop | Playable |
| RTX 4060 8 GB | Runs well |
| RTX 4060 Laptop | Playable |
| RTX 3070 8 GB | Runs great |
| RTX 3070 Laptop | Runs well |
| RTX 4070 12 GB | Runs great |
| RTX 4070 Laptop | Runs well |
| RX 6600 8 GB | Runs well |
Each card is compared against Algorithm's published GPU requirement, assuming an otherwise-capable PC. Laptop rows use the real mobile chip's benchmark, a mobile GPU is always slower than its desktop namesake.
