Graphics Requirements

To run PokerStars VR it is recommended that you have a minimum of an NVIDIA GTX 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 480 or greater. The recommended graphic card for the best visual experience is an NVIDIA GTX 1070 or greater (or better).

Running PokerStars VR on a graphics card that is above the recommended specifications will allow you to achieve the highest levels of visual detail and the best frame rates. Good frame rates can be beneficial when playing competitive games. A higher frame rate will reduce input lag allowing you to react more quickly to events on screen.

To easily see how your graphics card compares to these specifications use our interactive GPU checker.

CPU Requirements

PokerStars VR requires that you have a minimum of an Intel i5-4590 / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X or greater processor. For the best game experience an Intel i7 or greater (or better) processor is recommended.

Some games require a powerful CPU in order to manage the game engine. The game engine deals with things like processing network communications for multi-player games and the AI of your enemies in strategy games. Some games are considered CPU intensive or CPU dependent. Most modern games offload work directly to the GPU and don't require a powerful CPU for demanding visuals.
