Can I Run Bor?

Bor is an action adventure game from Gearbox Software, released in 2025. 2K published it. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Controller support is partial, so some input still falls back to the keyboard. Completionists have 52 achievements to work through. Its Steam review count passes 56 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. Steam lists support for 14 languages. Metacritic places it at 81. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation. An age check at 17 sits in front of the store page.

Setting and environment

The game is set in a science fiction setting. Play is structured around one continuous open world. The publisher supplies 17 storefront screenshots of these environments. It is played from a first person view. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Bor has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs.

Why Bor is demanding

Bor asks a lot of the graphics card. It targets NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 / AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Intel Arc B580, which our tables put above the RTX 3060, so Bor tends to define the machine you build rather than fit around one you own. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Bor scales hard with the hardware you give it. Windows 11 appears in the requirements, which is worth checking before buying Bor. At 32 GB, the RAM requirement is the one most likely to catch an otherwise capable PC out. Installation is large at roughly 100 GB, and an SSD is specified rather than suggested.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.

Can you run Bor?

70%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), system RAM is the tightest fit.

Bor is one of the more demanding games on PC. To reach its recommended tier you'll want a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 / AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Intel Arc B580-class graphics card, with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 / AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT / Intel Arc A580 the floor just to launch at minimum settings. Plan for a recent high-end GPU rather than a mainstream one.

Bottleneck: RAM

Borderline on RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. If you are buying today, plan a modest upgrade to system RAM to be comfortable, otherwise it is worth waiting for a better price or a stronger build.

Large install. Bor needs about 100 GB of SSD of free storage.

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pBelow the bar0.64x
1440pBelow the bar0.36x
4KBelow the bar0.16x

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.

Each card is compared against Bor'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.
