Valorant was released in 2020. We list 8 published FPS results for it from Notebookcheck, covering 4 graphics cards. Steam lists Intel HD Graphics 4000 as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today. Against those results our estimate landed within ±30% 4 of 8 times.

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