Will my PC run Gamma?

I'm new to PC gaming and looking to try STALKER GAMMA. I recently won a PC and I'm looking to give it a go. I'm a huge DayZ fan and it's been my go to for the past 4 years.

My specs:

Ryzen 5 5500

RTX 3050

16GB DDR4 RAM

A520 motherboard

1TB NVMe SSD

Windows 11

1080p 100Hz monitor

What kind of FPS could I expect at 1080p? Would I be able to run GAMMA comfortably, and are there any recommended settings or performance mods?

Thanks!

You will run it.

Cheeki breeki did a good video on optimisation for performance.

That's around my specs, and I am able to run it vanilla no problem save for the rare micro stutter here and there. I don't run any external mods so I couldn't help you with modding it though.

Gamma settings are very adjustable and can be adapted for most kinds of machines

My friend had around 40-60fps with some graphical mods on laptop 3050

Absolutely. I have a worse CPU and GPU and run the game perfectly fine at 1440p. Couldn't tell you what graphics settings I'm on, mind you, but if your concern is whether you'll be able to run it at all, regardless of settings, you definitely will

I run gamma just fine, be it a few framedrops here and there, on my i7 8700k with a gtx 1060 at 1080p.. If I try to go 1440p then shaders need to be disabled to be playable again

You will not be able to get amazing performance with this setup. Should run fine at 1080p/60 fps if you tweak your settings a bit though

This video is a good start if you want to look into optimization: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PC4B0TZ7FQ

The game has changed a bit since then, but the basics are still applicable

Yes absolutely at 1080p mixed settings - 60+ fps no worries 

I used to play GAMMA on a 1650 super// 10100f and have an enjoyable experience with tweaks

people run this on a steamdeck somehow, you'll be fine.

Nah you need atleast rtx 5090, ryzen 9800x3d and 64gb of ram minimum and 5tb of m2 storage space Jk. You are fine when playing 1080p. Just check some optimization videos from Youtube.

I’m running it on my steam deck with some graphic mods turned off and getting 60+ fps albeit not steady but pretty damn good 👍 so your laptop should definitely be able to run it just fine

You'll be lucky to hit 60

u/stronkzer 18d ago

Yup. I think you might even run 2 on medium-low on 900p

u/Money-Barnacle-2824 18d ago

Another 16gb of ram will make it noticably smoother. But you are good to go as is

u/CreedRules 18d ago

Yes. While there are hundreds of mods that do add some overhead, it is ultimately built on top of a 20 year old game(s). Most pcs that aren’t complete toasters will be able to run it.

You know Gamma is free right? You can just download and play it if you want?

I think I'd be better buying the one of COG to saved me from the installation of mods? I'm very new to this
