General Notes

Overall Note

Official PC system requirements from Ubisoft. Performance can vary significantly depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially dense settlements or large battles), and background applications. An SSD is strongly recommended.

Laptop Performance Note

Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs will require comparable performance, high TGP (Total Graphics Power), and excellent cooling. **Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a demanding title, especially at higher resolutions or with maxed-out settings due to its large, detailed world.**

Laptop Consideration: GPU TGP

Good TGP is important for consistent framerates.

Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals

Robust cooling is essential for sustained performance during raids and exploration.

Laptop Consideration: CPU Power Limits

A strong CPU is needed for NPC simulation, large-scale battles, and world streaming.

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

Supports AMD FSR 1.0 (later versions may require mods or specific game updates). DLSS support is not native but might be possible via mods on PC for some users.

Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact

World Details, Clutter, Shadow Quality, Volumetric Clouds, Water Quality, Screen Space Reflections, Character Texture Quality, and Anti-Aliasing heavily impact performance. The game offers an adaptive quality setting.
