About running God of War Ragnarök
God of War Ragnarök (2024, Action) is one of the heavier titles on this list and rewards a recent GPU. Minimum spec is Intel Core i5-6600K and NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB. Recommended is Intel Core i7-9700K and NVIDIA RTX 4060. Memory goes from 8 GB at minimum to 16 GB recommended, and you'll want roughly 190 GB free on disk. At this level the gap between minimum and recommended is the gap between playable and comfortable, not between bad and good.
How to improve God of War Ragnarök performance
- Close what you're not using. Browsers, chat apps and launchers sit on RAM and CPU while God of War Ragnarök runs. On a machine near the minimum this is usually the single biggest win available.
- Check your actual refresh rate and resolution. Running below your monitor's native resolution costs less than most people expect; running above your refresh rate buys nothing at all.
- Update the graphics driver. New releases routinely ship driver-side fixes. For a 2024 title on an older card this can be the difference between stutter and smooth.
- Put the game on an SSD. God of War Ragnarök wants about 190 GB. On a mechanical drive the frame rate may be fine while texture pop-in and load times are not.
- Free the memory before you launch. Windows accumulates background services that never give memory back. FixKon clears them out in one pass, which matters most when you're on 8–16 GB.

- Can I run God of War Ragnarök on a NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB?
