Far Cry 6 at a glance
Far Cry 6 is a shooter game from 2023. The recommended graphics listed by the Steam store page: AMD RX Vega 64 (8 GB) or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (8 GB). It asks for 16 GB of RAM (minimum 8 GB).
Our estimate: you need about a GTX 1080 for a steady 60 FPS at 1080p High, while a GTX 780 can hold around 30 FPS on Low. The game is moderately demanding on the processor; a Core i5-9600K or better keeps up with 60 FPS. On basic Intel UHD 630 graphics expect only about 7 FPS on Low, so a dedicated graphics card makes a big difference.
