About running Wuthering Waves
Released in 2024, Wuthering Waves wants a reasonable mid-range PC rather than anything exotic. It sits in the Action RPG category. Officially it wants at least NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti alongside Intel Core i5-9400, and recommends NVIDIA RTX 2060 with Intel Core i7-9700. It asks for 16 GB of memory either way, plus about 40 GB of free disk space. Memory is the quiet failure here: clearing the CPU and GPU bars while sitting on the minimum RAM usually shows up as stutter rather than a low average.
How to improve Wuthering Waves performance
- Close what you're not using. Browsers, chat apps and launchers sit on RAM and CPU while Wuthering Waves 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. Wuthering Waves wants about 40 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 16–16 GB.
Wuthering Waves requirements FAQ
- What are the minimum requirements for Wuthering Waves?
- Wuthering Waves lists Intel Core i5-9400 or equivalent, NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti, 16 GB of RAM and about 40 GB of storage on Windows 10 64-bit.
- Can I run Wuthering Waves on a NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti?
- NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti is the published minimum graphics card, so it should start and run — at low settings, at 1080p, and with frame dips in heavy scenes. The recommended card is NVIDIA RTX 2060.
- How much RAM does Wuthering Waves need?
- 16 GB covers both the minimum and the recommended spec. Having more will not add frames, but it does leave room for everything else Windows is running.
- Will Wuthering Waves run better if I close background apps?
- Usually yes, and most on a PC near the minimum spec. Background processes compete for the same CPU time and memory the game needs. This is what FixKon automates.
