PUBG is the game that started the battle royale craze. Here are its PC requirements and what you need for smooth 60 FPS+ gameplay.

What Is PUBG?

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is the game that defined the modern battle royale genre. 100 players parachute onto a large island, scavenge for weapons and vehicles, and fight to be the last person or squad standing. Developed by PUBG Corporation (Krafton), PUBG launched in early access in 2017, reached 3 million concurrent players, and transitioned to free-to-play in 2022.

PUBG PC Requirements

Minimum:
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-4430 / AMD FX-6300
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (2 GB) / AMD Radeon R7 370 (2 GB)
  • RAM: 8 GB
  • Storage: 40 GB SSD
  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
Recommended:
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K / AMD Ryzen 5 1600
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB) / AMD Radeon RX 580 (8 GB)
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • Storage: 40 GB SSD
Ultra (competitive 144 FPS):
  • CPU: Intel Core i7-12700 / AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3070 / AMD RX 6700 XT
  • RAM: 16 GB DDR4

FPS Targets and Settings

PUBG is CPU-demanding during the early game when many players are visible simultaneously. A mid-range CPU (Ryzen 5 5600, Core i5-12400) comfortably runs competitive settings at 144+ FPS on the Erangel map. Competitive players use low or very low graphics settings to maximize frame rates — enemy visibility improves at low settings because bushes and foliage render less densely.
