Can you run Runes?
Runes scales across a wide range of hardware. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, 6GB, AMD Radeon RX 5600XT or Intel Arc A750, 8GB is enough to get in at minimum settings, while NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070, 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT, 8GB and 8 GB of RAM is what it recommends for a smoother experience. Where you land mostly comes down to the settings you're willing to trade.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Borderline | 1.03x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.58x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.26x |
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 Runes'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.
