Recommended Mina the Hollower settings by graphics card

Starter settings for six well-known cards. Each cell is the highest preset that still delivers 60 FPS.

Each cell shows the highest preset that still delivers 60 FPS in Mina the Hollower, with the upscaling mode it needs.

• Start with upscaling. It costs little image quality and gains many frames. Pick the highest quality mode that reaches your target.
• Then trim the costliest options. Shadows, volumetric effects and draw distance usually cost the most, if the game offers them.
• Adjust a single setting at once and compare the result, so you can tell what helped.
• Do not cut textures first when your card has the memory. The speed cost is small. Our estimate for this game is 2.6 GB at 1440p.
• Set a frame cap to match your display and keep the PC cooler, then use the VRR and frame cap calculator to pick the figure.

These tables assume the game includes an upscaler, so look in its graphics menu. Get a personal recommendation in the best settings generator and compare upscaling modes in the DLSS and frame generation estimator.

Steam features

Facts come from the public Steam store page. We have not tested the game on every card, so frame rates on this page are modelled figures.

How we estimated Mina the Hollower performance

A short, honest note on how the numbers are produced.

Three numbers drive this page: graphics demand 4 (from the minimum card), CPU score 32 (from an assumed processor line) and VRAM of 2 GB at 1080p High (estimated from the demand score).

Frame rates scale each graphics card against that demand, then adjust for resolution, preset, upscaling and a memory penalty when a card runs short of VRAM. CPU limits cap the result using a fast reference processor in the GPU tables.

Please read the figures as estimates rather than measurements. Drivers, game updates, temperatures and the part of the game you are playing can all move them.
