Playground Games has announced the official PC system requirements for the highly anticipated new Fable. All hardware details from 1080p to 4K Ultra settings are here.
Playground Games has shared the official PC system requirements for Fable, the new role-playing game that has been eagerly awaited for many years. The development team detailed the hardware requirements that players will encounter when stepping into the world of Albion with four different graphics profiles: Low, Medium, High, and Ultra. It is noteworthy that all configurations require Windows 10 (version 22H2) and a solid-state drive (SSD).
Fable PC System Requirements
Fable, one of the most established series in the gaming world, opens the door to relatively accessible hardware at minimum settings. The starting profile, aiming for 30 FPS at 1080p resolution, shows that even veteran hardware can run the game.
However, the bar is raised a bit for a smooth experience and the goal of 1440p.
Low and Medium Graphics Profile Requirements
| Profile | Target Performance | Processor (CPU) | Graphics Card (GPU) | Memory & VRAM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low | 1080p @ 30 FPS | AMD Ryzen 5 2600 / Intel Core i7-6850K | NVIDIA RTX 5050 / RTX 2060 / AMD RX 6600 / Intel Arc A580 | 12 GB RAM / 6 GB VRAM |
| Medium (Medium / Recommended | 1440p @ 30 FPS or 1200p @ 60 FPS | AMD Ryzen 5 5600 / Intel Core i5-11600KF | NVIDIA RTX 5060 / RTX 3060 Ti / AMD RX 9060 XT / RX 6700 XT | 16 GB RAM / 8 GB VRAM |
High Detail and 4K Ultra Performance Monsters
For gamers who don’t want to compromise on visual quality and aim for the 60 FPS standard, top-tier components are needed.
Especially when going to Ultra settings at 4K resolution, powerful next-generation hardware comes to the fore. However, the fact that the system memory requirement remains at 16 GB even on Ultra settings is a positive detail in terms of optimization.
High and Ultra Graphics Profile Requirements
| Profile | Target Performance | Processor (CPU) | Graphics Card (GPU) | Memory & VRAM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High (High) | 1440p @ 60 FPS | AMD Ryzen 7 7700X / Intel Core i7-12700K | NVIDIA RTX 5070 / RTX 3080 Ti / AMD RX 9070 / RX 7900 XT | 16 GB RAM / 12 GB VRAM |
| Ultra | 4K @ 60 FPS | AMD Ryzen 9 7900X / Intel Core i9-13900K | NVIDIA RTX 5080 / RTX 4080 | 16 GB RAM / 16 GB VRAM |
Optimization and Performance Tips
Playground Games offers critical hardware recommendations to maximize frame rate stability.
The development team specifically recommends enabling the XMP profile for RAM and the Resizable BAR (ReBAR) feature, which allows direct memory access for the graphics card, via the system BIOS settings. These technologies speed up the flow of information in the open world and prevent stuttering.
