Can you run Tenebrae?
Tenebrae targets a mainstream modern PC: Intel HD Graphics 520 or AMD Radeon Vega Integrated Graphics and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to AMD RX 480, NVIDIA GTX 970, 4 GB of Video Memory and above 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 | 1.98x |
| 1440p | Borderline | 1.11x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.49x |
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 Tenebrae'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.
