Think of the verdict column as a starting point. It judges every card on the High preset, so a modest result can often be improved by dropping one preset or using DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling.
In this game the RTX 5070 returns around 231 FPS at 1440p while the RTX 5060 returns 231 FPS, a gap of 0% that is worth considering against price.
Settings that hold 60 FPS at 1080p, 1440p and 4K, worked out for this game.
At 1080p, GTX 1660 Super, RTX 3060 12GB, RTX 4060 hold 60 FPS natively on High in our modelling, so you can leave DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling off and spend the headroom on settings.
Use the table as a starting point: it shows the highest preset that still hits 60 FPS for each card at 1080p.
| Card | Best preset | Upscaling | Est. FPS |
|---|---|---|---|
| GTX 1660 Super | Ultra | Native | 202 |
| RTX 3060 12GB | Ultra | Native | 231 |
| RTX 4060 | Ultra | Native | 231 |
| RTX 5060 | Ultra | Native | 231 |
1440p is straightforward on RTX 4060, RTX 5060, RTX 5070, which hold 60 FPS on High natively here, so you only need DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling for extra smoothness.
Pick your card in the table for the preset and DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling mode that keep 1440p above 60 FPS.
| Card | Best preset | Upscaling | Est. FPS |

If you want neither part to idle, RTX 5090 with Ryzen 7 9800X3D comes closest at 1440p, with a CPU ceiling near 266 FPS and a card good for around 360+ FPS.
None of these is a shopping list. They show how the balance shifts as you move up the range, and the bottleneck checker lets you try your own pair.
The memory and storage Steam asks for, and how to read it.
Memory first. Steam sets 8 GB RAM as the minimum and 8 GB RAM as the recommended amount. With Windows, a browser and a chat app open, 16 GB leaves comfortable headroom.
On disk, plan for around 2 GB free. At 100 Mbps with typical overhead that is roughly 3 min to download, or around 1 min at 500 Mbps.
Steam does not state an SSD requirement, so an SSD still improves loading times, but a hard drive should not stop the game launching.
Add up your own needs in the RAM calculator, which adds your usual background apps to what the game asks for. Check how long the install takes with the download time calculator.

Quick answers about S4U: CITYPUNK 2011 AND LOVE PUNCH requirements, GPUs, memory and settings.
Expect to need at least GTX1050, ideally GTX1050. Steam pairs that with Core i5-10600K, and memory of 8 GB RAM (minimum) or 8 GB RAM (recommended). Storage needed is 2 GB available space.
Start with the card-by-card verdicts, then run your own parts through the checker. The lowest card we tested at 60 FPS on 1080p High is the GTX 1060 6GB.
The GTX 1060 6GB is where 1080p at 60 FPS on High starts in our modelling, and the RTX 5050 is the cheapest RTX 50 way to get there.
For a smooth 1440p you want the GTX 1060 6GB at minimum, and among RTX 50 cards the RTX 5050 is the first that gets there.
At High settings it should manage around 231 FPS (1080p) and 231 FPS (1440p). 12 GB of VRAM is comfortable for 1440p, so you can usually raise the settings.
Roughly 231 FPS at 1440p on High, rising to around 231 FPS with Quality DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling. Drivers, the area you play in and your CPU will move that.
The RTX 5050 is the entry point for 4K here, and only with Quality DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling switched on.
Memory use comes out at roughly 2 GB (1080p), 2.6 GB (1440p) and 3.6 GB (4K) on High, which makes 8GB fine at 1080p and fine at 1440p. Leave some spare capacity.
High settings come out at roughly 2 GB, 2.6 GB and 3.6 GB for 1080p, 1440p and 4K. These are derived from the publisher recommended specs.
The recommended processor is Core i5-10600K and lists Core i5-10600K as the minimum. In the model, Core i3-12100F, Ryzen 5 3600, Core i5-12400F, Ryzen 5 5600 and faster keep a GPU fed above 60 FPS in this game.
The listing asks for 8 GB RAM minimum and 8 GB RAM recommended memory. In real use, 16 GB is a sensible target.
Plan for 2 GB available space of free space. Steam does not state an SSD requirement, but an SSD is recommended for loading times.
At typical wattage, RTX 5050 Laptop, RTX 5060 Laptop, RTX 5070 Laptop, RTX 5070 Ti Laptop, RTX 5080 Laptop, RTX 5090 Laptop reach 60 FPS at 1080p on High in our modelling. Power limit and cooling decide how close a real laptop gets.
Begin on High, switch on DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling if it is available, and trim the costliest options first. The table in the settings section shows a good place to start for each card.
It lands on 7 in our graphics demand scale (ahead of 28% of 937 games), a undemanding result. The CPU score of 35 beats 87% of the set.
