Mass Effect 3 was released in 2012. No published benchmark of Mass Effect 3 is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists Supported chipsets: NVIDIA 7900 or better; ATI X1800 or better. Please note that NVIDIA Ge… as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today.
Frame rate cap: 60 FPS. Mass Effect 3 limits the frame rate to 60 FPS by default, so no graphics card shows more than that. Our estimates stop at 60 FPS too.

Mass Effect 3 FPS questions
- Does Mass Effect 3 have an FPS cap?
- Yes. Mass Effect 3 caps the frame rate at 60 FPS by default, so a faster graphics card will not show more than 60 FPS.
- What graphics card do I need for 60 FPS in Mass Effect 3 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 60 FPS. No published benchmark of Mass Effect 3 at that setting is in our data to confirm it.
- Can a GTX 1650 run Mass Effect 3?
- By our estimate it gets about 60 FPS at 1080p Low (smooth) and 60 FPS at 1080p High (smooth), each ±30%.
- What are the minimum system requirements for Mass Effect 3?
- Steam lists Supported chipsets: NVIDIA 7900 or better; ATI X1800 or better. Please note that NVIDIA GeForce 9300, 8500… graphics, 1.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (equivalent AMD CPU) and 2 GB of RAM as the minimum.
