Can I run the game with these specs?

[Ser Benjy]

I'm not at all bothered about running Starfield on max settings - and I know the min specs have been released which I think are still above what I have here. But I just want to know if people think I will be able to run the game on the following. Thanks.

NVIDA GTX 1650
Intel i5-9300H CPU 2.40ghz
7g Ram

You're going to have a bad time on that machine on the lowest possible settings at 720p.

EDIT: Of course this is based off of measuring your system vs the minimum system requirements for Starfield.

Your GPU is <50% strength of the minimum req.
Your RAM is <50% of the minimum req.
Your processor is really weak for an AAA title.

Minimum and recommended are not always spot on but even in this case you better get huffing some hopium.

You would certainly need to get creative with the game settings .ini files to reduce it more than what the in-game settings allow.

You're out of VRAM and RAM for this game. You might be able to if you have 16g RAM, that way your GTX 1650 can allocate some for VRAM purposes.

But I would wait for footage of 4g VRAM GPU devices running this game.

no one knows for now, get the gamepass for one month and test it yourself.

Do you have an SSD ?

Bro just try and save for a console if you can't afford a PC, even the Series S is going to be better than trying to run games on a toaster.

this would be the right way.


@Benjy
u have very low speccs for 2023 released games.
if you don't want to ruin your gaming experience, you shouldn't buy it on your system in the first place.

or just invest 1000€/$, with that you get nowadays already quite gaming suitable pcs.

Games are poorly optimized for PC these days, it's why people still keep to consoles these days. Personally I won't be buying Starfield unless it's on Geforce now or the Steam deck. Besides we have game pass that allows us to play Starfield without having to worry about system requirements.

@ OP,

NOPE.

Couple of builds a math teacher shows some ways to order up all the parts and come in on a tight budget while still getting a really good play time experience!

Sure its not the best top end build but uh, those still cost about ~2000-3000, true those feature 4090's and best stuff, those things might go 10+ years cause only a really big new thing would dent the performance really.

The Minimum required specs for Starfield are
A 6+ Core CPU
16GB of RAM
A GPU with 8GB of VRAM and DirectX 12 Ultimate Support
and an SSD

So with a Quad-Core CPU a low end GPU and miss-matched RAM sticks and a lack of an SSD I'd be impressed if it launched... I doubt it'd be enjoyable even at 1280x720 (720p)
