Yasuke Simulator PC requirements, FPS and best settings

Quick answer: can your PC run Yasuke Simulator?

Where Yasuke Simulator ranks for hardware demand

How this game ranks among 937 modelled titles, and how that plays out for entry, mid-range and high-end cards.

On our demand scale Yasuke Simulator scores 23. That makes it harder to run than 68% of the 937 games in our data set, which we class as a mid-weight game for graphics hardware.

The score is derived from the recommended GPU in the publisher requirements, gtx 1070, scaled to a 1080p High equivalent. It is a modelling choice rather than a measurement, so read it as a ranking more than a promise.

What it means by card class

• As a mid-range card, the RTX 5070 manages 282 FPS at 1080p, 182 FPS at 1440p and 104 FPS at 4K. Comfortable at 4K on High, around 104 FPS before any upscaling.
• As an entry card, the RTX 5060 manages 164 FPS at 1080p, 106 FPS at 1440p and 61 FPS at 4K. Reaches 61 FPS at 4K on High, so native 4K is realistic.
• As an enthusiast card, the RTX 5090 manages 360+ FPS at 1080p, 360+ FPS at 1440p and 226 FPS at 4K. Holds roughly 226 FPS at 4K, so resolution is not the limit.
• Take a high-end card, the RTX 5080: close to 360+ FPS at 1080p, 248 FPS at 1440p and 143 FPS at 4K on High. Comfortable at 4K on High, around 143 FPS before any upscaling.

For the processor we score Yasuke Simulator at 19, which is above 18% of our data set.

Yasuke Simulator system requirements

Official minimum and recommended specs for Yasuke Simulator, translated into frame rates.

Published by the developer on Steam and subject to change with patches.

Reading the specs against real hardware

The minimum card, gtx 1060, is the floor Steam sets. In our model it manages close to 94 FPS at 1080p on Low settings, and 52 FPS if you push it to High.

The recommended card, gtx 1070, reaches roughly 80 FPS at 1080p and 52 FPS at 1440p on High by our model. That is above 60 FPS at 1080p, so the recommended spec reads as a comfortable 1080p target.

Steam asks for Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz at the recommended level. That class of processor tops out near 102 FPS in Yasuke Simulator by our model.

Steam sets memory at 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB RAM recommended, and asks for 20 GB available space of storage.

Best graphics card for Yasuke Simulator by target

Pick a target and see the card it needs in Yasuke Simulator.

Our estimates put 1080p 60 FPS on High within reach of the GTX 1660 Super and above, with the RTX 5050 as the cheapest RTX 50 route there.

Moving up to 1440p, the RTX 2060 is the lowest card that holds 60 FPS on High, and the RTX 5050 is the first RTX 50 option.

For 4K, upscaling does most of the work: with Quality DLSS, FSR or XeSS-style upscaling the RTX 5050 is the first RTX 50 card to hit 60 FPS on High.

NVIDIA, AMD and Intel cards all appear in the list. For a personal answer with your own CPU and RAM, use the can my PC run it checker or look for a CPU bottleneck with the bottleneck checker.

All numbers are for High settings paired with a quick CPU. Upscaled columns assume the Quality mode of whichever upscaler the game provides. Figures above 360 FPS are shown as 360+. Put two cards side by side in the GPU comparison tool.

Graphics card verdicts: how each one handles Yasuke Simulator

Twelve popular cards, with a plain-English verdict for each.

Each verdict compares the card with a 60 FPS target on the High preset. Where a card falls short, the usual fix is a lower preset or upscaling, which the settings section prices in.

A useful comparison: RTX 5060 at roughly 106 FPS and RTX 5070 at roughly 182 FPS at 1440p, so the dearer card is close to 71% faster here.

Resolution playbook for Yasuke Simulator: 1080p, 1440p and 4K

Settings that hold 60 FPS at 1080p, 1440p and 4K, worked out for this game.

1080p playbook

For 1080p play, GTX 1660 Super, RTX 3060 12GB, RTX 4060 clear 60 FPS on High without any upscaling by our estimates, which leaves room to raise individual settings.

Each row below is the best-looking combination that still holds 60 FPS at 1080p by our model.

1440p playbook

For 1440p play, RTX 4060, RTX 5060, RTX 5070 clear 60 FPS on High without any upscaling by our estimates, which leaves room to raise individual settings.

Use the table as a starting point: it shows the highest preset that still delivers 60 FPS for each card at 1440p.

4K playbook

Native 4K works on RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 4080 Super, RTX 5080, all above 60 FPS on High by our model. Upscaling then becomes optional rather than required.

Pick your card in the table for the preset and upscaling mode that keep 4K above 60 FPS.

Is a graphics card upgrade worth it for Yasuke Simulator?

What each step up the RTX 50 range adds at 1440p on the High preset.

The biggest single step in Yasuke Simulator is RTX 5080 to RTX 5090, worth roughly 59% at 1440p by our model. The smallest is RTX 5070 to RTX 5070 Ti at roughly 17%.

Do not overspend for Yasuke Simulator. Past the mid-range the extra graphics power goes unused, and a better processor would help more.

Compare options directly in the upgrade value calculator or the GPU price to performance calculator.

How much VRAM does Yasuke Simulator need?

Modelled VRAM use at High settings. Falling short of VRAM causes stutter even with a quick GPU.

Expect roughly 4 GB of VRAM at 1080p, 5.2 GB at 1440p and 7.2 GB at 4K on High. Remember that this is an estimate derived from the recommended GPU.

A single step down in textures, to Medium, reduces the 1440p estimate to close to 4.4 GB, which is often enough to avoid stutter.

Budget tiers: 6, 8, 12 and 16 GB cards

• 6 GB of VRAM reads as comfortable for 1080p, tight for 1440p and short of memory for 4K on the High preset here. Where it is short, Medium textures and upscaling are the practical fixes.
• On an 8 GB card, 1080p is comfortable, 1440p is comfortable and 4K is tight on High. Where it is short, Medium textures and upscaling are the practical fixes.
• On a 12 GB card, 1080p is comfortable, 1440p is comfortable and 4K is comfortable on High. Memory is rarely a worry at these settings.
• 16 GB of VRAM reads as comfortable for 1080p, comfortable for 1440p and comfortable for 4K on the High preset here. Memory is rarely a worry at these settings.

Matching a processor to a graphics card for Yasuke Simulator

How seven common processor and GPU pairs behave in this game.

The processor is not the limit in any of the seven pairings here at 1440p, so spend on the GPU first.

For balance, look at RTX 5090 with Ryzen 7 9800X3D. The CPU can prepare around 360+ FPS and the card can draw close to 360+ FPS at 1440p, which is a close match.

These pairings are examples, not recommendations to buy. Swap in your own parts with the bottleneck checker to see which side limits you.

How much RAM and storage does Yasuke Simulator need?

RAM and disk space from the Steam page, with a practical view.

Memory first. Steam sets 8 GB RAM as the minimum and 16 GB RAM as the recommended amount. With Windows, a browser and a chat app open, 16 GB leaves comfortable headroom.

Storage is listed at close to 20 GB. Expect around 31 min to download on a 100 Mbps line, or roughly 6 min on 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.

Work out your total in the RAM calculator, which adds your usual background apps to what the game asks for. Time the download with the download time calculator.

Yasuke Simulator best graphics settings

Starter settings for six well-known cards. Cells list the highest-quality preset that keeps 60 FPS.

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

• Adjust a single setting at once and note the effect on FPS before moving on.
• Reach for upscaling first. It gives up little detail for a large frame-rate gain. Choose the best-looking mode that still hits your target.
• Keep textures high when your card has the memory. They barely touch frame rate. Our estimate for this game is 5.2 GB for 1440p.
• Then trim the costliest options. Shadows, volumetric effects and draw distance usually cost the most, if the game offers them.
• Cap your frame rate at your monitor refresh rate to save power and noise, then use the VRR and frame cap calculator to pick the figure.

An upscaler is assumed throughout; confirm the game has one in its graphics options. Get a personal recommendation in the best settings generator, or compare modes in the DLSS and frame generation estimator.

Tips for an Action, Casual and Simulation games like Yasuke Simulator

General guidance for this kind of game, chosen from the Steam genres and features.

Treat these as rules of thumb for games of this type. They come from the genres on the Steam page, not from testing Yasuke Simulator directly.

• Because the load is light, a frame cap and power-saving settings are worth more than extra graphics options.
• Action games feel best when frame times are even, so lowering one costly setting is usually better than chasing a high peak.
• Large builds, towns or factories can push memory and processor use up over time, so leave some headroom beyond the stated minimum.

How the Yasuke Simulator estimates work

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

The inputs for Yasuke Simulator are a graphics demand of 23 (taken from the recommended card), a processor score of 19 (from the listed processor line) and 4 GB of VRAM at 1080p High (estimated from the demand score).

The model divides a card's performance score by the game demand, scaled for resolution, preset and upscaling, with a penalty when memory runs short and a ceiling set by a fast reference processor.

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.
