Setting and environment
Chivalry is set in a medieval setting. The publisher supplies 16 storefront screenshots of these environments. Play is presented from a first person view.
Why Chivalry is demanding
Demand in Chivalry is ordinary. The publisher has Nvidia GTX 1070 or AMD RX Vega-56 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. The DirectX requirement is undemanding, at version 10. Chivalry takes about 35 GB of disk space. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Chivalry needs 64 bit Windows. At only 2 GB of VRAM, memory capacity is not what limits Chivalry. The chip itself is.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Chivalry?
Chivalry targets a mainstream modern PC: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 2 GB and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to Nvidia GTX 1070 or AMD RX Vega-56 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Runs well | 1.31x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.74x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.33x |
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.
