Use the dedicated Kingdom Come: Deliverance II FPS calculator with the game already selected. Compare CPUs, GPUs, resolutions, and optional settings, then review practical guidance for visual quality, GPU load, resolution scaling, and stable frame times.
Practical 1440p starting preset with a balanced CPU, GPU, 16 GB RAM, and High graphics
This Kingdom Come: Deliverance II guide focuses on the scenes most likely to disturb smooth aaa open-world play. Because dense environments, traversal, lighting, crowds, and asset streaming shift the bottleneck from area to area, one quiet screenshot should not be used as the only benchmark.
No engine is named because the offline source registry does not contain a reliable engine citation for this title. The stored demand model rates CPU sensitivity as High and GPU sensitivity as Extreme. Settings such as shadows, volumetrics, reflections are the first places to test, but the limiting component should be confirmed with utilization and frame-time data.
A low preset can reveal CPU or simulation limits, while higher resolutions and visual settings shift more of the workload to the GPU. Compare both a performance-focused and a quality-focused setup before deciding which component needs attention. This page is intended for players planning visually rich 1080p, 1440p, ultrawide, or 4K open-world setups. The loaded hardware configuration is only a sensible example for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II; every visible calculator input remains editable.
This is an editable example, not a universal recommendation.
The stored profile rates CPU sensitivity as High. Strong per-core performance and healthy memory behavior matter because the processor must keep up when the game becomes busy. In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, lowering resolution may not help when the GPU is already underused and one CPU thread is saturated.
GPU sensitivity is rated Extreme. High resolutions and demanding effects are expected to place sustained pressure on the graphics card. In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, test shadows and volumetrics before reducing every setting at once, and confirm that FPS rises when GPU load is reduced.
The internal profile uses 16 GB as a planning value, not an official requirement. For Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, dual-channel operation and enough free memory for the operating system matter more than simply installing an excessive capacity. Watch committed memory during the busiest scene you actually play.
VRAM sensitivity is rated High because Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is profiled as a demanding graphics workload. High-resolution textures, ultrawide or 4K output, and heavy effects can consume headroom quickly. Reduce textures only when memory pressure is visible; otherwise tune effects first.
Use these presets as starting points and adjust them after checking a busy, repeatable scene.
| Preset | Resolution | Quality | Anti-aliasing | Refresh target | Textures | Shadows | View distance | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Balanced | 1080p or 1440p | Medium to High | Game default or light temporal AA | 60–144 Hz | High if memory allows | Medium | Medium/High | Start here before changing one heavy option at a time. |
| High Quality | 1440p | High | Quality-focused AA | 60–120 Hz | High | High | High | Keep a realistic cap and watch GPU utilization. |
| Maximum Visuals | 1440p or 4K | Very High, selectively tuned | Highest practical AA | 45–90 Hz | High | High | High | Use only after the balanced preset is stable. |
| Low-End PC | 720p or 1080p | Low | Off or lightweight AA | 30–60 Hz | Low/Medium | Low | Low/Medium | Reduce shadows and volumetrics before lowering render resolution further. |
| Resolution | Practical guidance | Best fit | Likely limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 720p | Useful for older hardware and CPU-limit diagnosis. A small gain over 1080p suggests the processor or simulation is already the constraint. | Low-end hardware; native rendering first. | Usually CPU-limited at high FPS; VRAM pressure is normally lower. |
| 1080p | The practical baseline for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, suitable for low-end to mid-range systems and clean setting comparisons. | Low-end to mid-range; 60–240 Hz depending on genre and hardware. | CPU limits become more likely at low settings and high refresh. |
| 1440p | A useful target for mainstream GPUs. Check 1% lows and GPU headroom before raising every option. | Mid-range to high-end hardware. | More likely GPU-limited; texture memory begins to matter more. |
| 3440×1440 ultrawide | Renders about one-third more pixels than standard 1440p, increasing GPU and VRAM load. Verify interface and field-of-view behavior. | Upper-mid-range to high-end hardware. | Usually GPU-limited; lower effects or shadows before textures when memory is healthy. |
| 4K | Primarily a GPU test. Native 4K may be impractical on modest hardware. Use an upscaler only after current support is verified. | High-end hardware or a carefully tuned 60 Hz target. | Strongly GPU-limited; VRAM and texture settings deserve close attention. |
Allow shader compilation to finish after updates. Repeated traversal should become more consistent if cache building was the cause.
Keep the game on a healthy SSD with free space. Texture pop-in and traversal hitches can be worsened by storage pressure.
Check VRAM use before raising texture quality at ultrawide or 4K. Exceeding the practical budget can cause severe frame-time spikes.
Test Kingdom Come: Deliverance II while moving quickly through a dense area. Indoor scenes can hide streaming, crowd, and traversal limits.
If performance drops only in busy districts while GPU use falls, reduce crowd or simulation settings and inspect per-core CPU load.
Results are estimates based on selected hardware, game demand, resolution, graphics settings, and optional inputs. Actual performance may vary because of drivers, game updates, cooling, power limits, RAM configuration, background applications, and individual system conditions.
Use the result to compare scenarios, then validate the final build with current independent testing in a repeatable scene. The tool does not run Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, inspect the computer, or provide a measured result supplied by the game publisher.
The profile rates CPU sensitivity as High and GPU sensitivity as Extreme. Resolution, preset, scene complexity, and frame target can change the limit; confirm it with utilization data.
Start with shadows, volumetrics, reflections. Change one setting at a time and check GPU utilization and frame time.
16 GB is an internal planning value, not an official requirement. The RAM rating is Medium; mods, recording, hosting, and large saves can raise use.
Start at 1080p. Use 720p to diagnose a CPU limit, 1440p for sharper output, and ultrawide or 4K as GPU and VRAM tests.
VRAM sensitivity is rated High. Resolution, textures, mods, and effects raise use; stutter or pop-in can indicate pressure.
