Can I Run Maize?
Maize is a first-person adventure game about what happens when two scientists misinterpret a memo from the U.S. Government and create sentient corn. And that last sentence is pretty much the least rid...

Can you run Maize?
Maize targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GeForce 460 GTX | AMD Radeon 6870 HD series or higher and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to AMD Radeon RX 480 | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or higher for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 3.95x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 2.22x |
| 4K | Borderline | 0.99x |
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 Maize'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.
