Age of Empires was released in 1997. No published benchmark of Age of Empires is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists Local SVGA bus video display as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Age of Empires, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
