1060 6GB + i5-8400

[TerriblyDumb]

I really want to play this game but I'm worried about performance and such. Anyone with these specs out there? It might look bad now but are there optimizations coming?

You’re not going to be able to run it, I’m sorry man. I have a 3070 and a 5600X and I’m not gonna be able to run it well

Do you think in a week or two a optimization will roll out?

The 1060gpu is 7 years old. I have doubts you'll be able to run it even after optimizations.
The minimum requirements is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti (and that means Starfield will just barely run on the lowest settings, not recommended unless you are desperate).
Time to get an upgrade, The 2080Ti is at an okay price if you dont want a high-end graphics card (game runs great on my 2080Ti, so I can strongly recommend it)

(On comparison, my old GTX980 that was released back in 2014 performs better than your 1060 in benchmark, but I'd honestly dont think Starfield would be able to run on neither a 980 or a 1060)

buy an amd gpu if you want play starfield

it'll run, but very poorly. It even runs on the Steam Deck, 20-30fps at 720p on the lowest settings with FSR enabled lol

I have the same thing (except its a 3070 ti). Follow the Hardware unboxed youtube video on performance mode. I went to a stable 65-70 fps with excellent-looking graphics.

Previously I had 150 to 30 fps and crappy graphics. I hope we get some optimization and built-in DLSS.

Try turning one of your gpu's off and just use one to see if its better. I doubt many games support SLI so.. Thats just a thought

game is currently in a very bad optimized state, the performance is awful and its unstable.

Systems with GPUS which are at the minimum must wait for updates.

I got a 2080ti forget it, wont run

[bkjolly77]

I'm guessing this is a laptop and an older one at that. Either way I'm sorry but it won't be playable.

They won't get 30 fps with that rig even on low settings I don't think, I

That hits me right in the gut. It’s my desktop, I’m just broke.
