General Notes

Overall Note

Official PC system requirements from Arkane Studios/Bethesda. Performance can vary depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially detailed city districts), and background applications. An SSD is recommended for optimal loading times.

Laptop Performance Note

Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs will require comparable performance, high TGP (Total Graphics Power), and good cooling. **Dishonored 2 can be demanding, particularly at higher settings or resolutions, due to its detailed environments and complex AI.**

Laptop Consideration: GPU TGP

Good TGP is important for consistent framerates.

Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals

Robust cooling is essential for sustained performance.

Laptop Consideration: CPU Power Limits

A decent CPU is needed for AI pathfinding and complex level interactions.

Laptop Consideration: RAM Speed Dual Channel

Fast dual-channel RAM benefits performance.

Laptop Consideration: MUX Switch Optimus

Using a MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is recommended.

Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech

NVIDIA Ansel support for screenshots. No native widespread upscaling tech like DLSS/FSR in original release, but this could vary with patches or PC driver features.

Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact

Texture Quality, View Distance, Shadow Quality, Anti-Aliasing, Decal Quality, Water Quality, and Post-Processing effects heavily impact performance.
