Half-Life was released in 1998. No published benchmark of Half-Life is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate.
Frame rate cap: 100 FPS. Half-Life limits the frame rate to 100 FPS by default, so no graphics card shows more than that. Our estimates stop at 100 FPS too.

SteamHalf-Life FPS questions
- Does Half-Life have an FPS cap?
- Yes. Half-Life caps the frame rate at 100 FPS by default, so a faster graphics card will not show more than 100 FPS.
- What graphics card do I need for 60 FPS in Half-Life at 1080p?
- By our estimate (±30%), the GTX 1650 is the least powerful of our 10 reference cards to reach 60 FPS at 1080p High, at about 100 FPS. No published benchmark of Half-Life at that setting is in our data to confirm it.
- Can a GTX 1650 run Half-Life?
- By our estimate it gets about 100 FPS at 1080p Low (smooth) and 100 FPS at 1080p High (smooth), each ±30%.
