Can I Run Divinity: Original Sin?
Larian Studios released Divinity: Original Sin in 2017. It is an adventure role playing game, self published by the studio. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. Its Metacritic score stands at 93. Its Steam review count passes 179 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Cloud saves are enabled. Builds exist for macOS as well as Windows. Workshop content is supported, so the published requirements describe the unmodded game only. At 9 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own. It is localised into 13 languages according to the store listing. Split screen on one PC is supported, a feature most releases have quietly dropped. Completionists have 97 achievements to work through.

Setting and environment
Divinity: Original Sin places its action in a fantasy world, and the player works through a board the player reads before committing. The publisher supplies 12 storefront screenshots of these environments. It is played from an isometric view.
Why Divinity: Original Sin is demanding
Divinity: Original Sin is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 or AMD R9 280 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Divinity: Original Sin. The install is small at roughly 60 GB. Divinity: Original Sin needs 64 bit Windows. System memory expectations are modest at 8 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Divinity: Original Sin?
Divinity: Original Sin targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 550 or ATI™ Radeon™ HD 6XXX or higher and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 or AMD R9 280 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 | Comfortable | 3.27x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.84x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.82x |
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.
