Valorant is a competitive tactical 5v5 first-person shooter from Riot Games, the developers of the MOBA League of Legends juggernaut. The character-based shooter emphasizes solid shooter play and will use dedicated 128 tick servers to give you the best possible experience while playing.
As you would expect from Riot Games, Valorant was designed to run on as many systems as possible, so the minimum and recommended requirements are extremely reasonable.
Material specs
According to Riot Games, “Valorant is optimized to run on a wide variety of PC hardware, allowing a global audience to compete. Much like League of Legends, the game is designed and optimized to perform well even on the lowest spec systems.
Recommended specs - 60 images per second:
- Processor: Intel i3-4150
- GPU: Geforce GTX 730
High-end specifications - 144+ frames per second:
- Processor: Intel Core i5-4460 3,2 GHz
- GPU: GTX 1050 Ti
Minimum specifications - 30 images per second:
- Processor: Intel i3-370M
- GPU: Intel HD 3000
PC hardware recommendations:
- Windows 7/8/10 64 bits
- 4 GB of RAM
- 1 VRAM Go
Unlike the system requirements above, we can look at the Steam Hardware Survey January results to get a good idea of the average system specs for PC gamers.
With the average GPU on Steam being the GTX 1060, gamers with high refresh rate monitors should have no problem getting 144 fps while playing. To get 60 FPS, all you need is an Intel i3-4150 and a GTX 730, or an AMD equivalent. We are currently assuming that all of the above hardware combinations will give the marked results at 1080p resolution.
