Can I Run The Turing Test PC?
BULKHEAD released The Turing Test PC in 2016. It is an adventure game, self published by the studio. It offers a single player campaign. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. With more than 6 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Its Metacritic score stands at 74. It carries 15 achievements. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a science fiction setting. Play is structured around self contained puzzle rooms. The publisher supplies 11 storefront screenshots of these environments. It is played from a first person view.
Why The Turing Test PC is demanding
Very little is asked of the GPU by The Turing Test PC. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 / ATI Radeon R9 280 or above scores low against the RTX 3060, putting The Turing Test PC within reach of laptop and integrated graphics. System memory expectations are modest at 8 GB. The install is small at roughly 10 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run The Turing Test PC?
The Turing Test PC targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 / ATI Radeon HD 5770 and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 / ATI Radeon R9 280 or above 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 | 3.15x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.77x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.79x |
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 The Turing Test PC'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.
