5 Stutter – Insufficient data. Similar graphics cards stutter, the game is likely to show a low frame rate. There will be some lags.
May Stutter – Insufficient data. Similar graphics cards stutter, the game is likely to show a low frame rate. There will be some lags.
30 Fluent – According to the results of benchmarks the game should run at 25 frames per second (fps)
40 Fluent – According to the results of benchmarks the game should run at 35 frames per second (fps)
60 Fluent – According to the results of benchmarks the game should run at 58 frames per second (fps)
May Run Fluently – Insufficient data. Similar graphics cards show a smooth frame rate, comfortable for the game.
? Uncertain – Graphics cards testing has shown that a slower card can provide a high and stable frame rate for the same operation.
Uncertain – The work of the video card in the game is still being studied. Interpolation among analogs is not possible.
