Check FPS on your GPU

The Talos Principle was released in 2014. No published benchmark of The Talos Principle is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists DirectX 11 class GPU with 1GB VRAM (nVidia GeForce 480 GTX, AMD Radeon HD 5870) as the minimum graphics card, an entry-level card by today's standards.

Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for The Talos Principle, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.

No measured data yet. We have not found a published benchmark of The Talos Principle with a source we can link. The figures below come from our model and carry a ±30% band. How the estimate works.
