Can I run Starfield?
Check your PC against Starfield's requirements (2023). If you fall short, we'll point you straight to the upgrade that fixes it — checked for fit, power and bottleneck against your exact PC.
On the GPU side, Starfield is a demanding game and puts more load on your graphics card than your processor. To match the recommended specs, aim for roughly a RTX 2080 / RX 6800 XT with Core i5-10600K / Ryzen 5 3600X and 16 GB of RAM, installed on an SSD.
