Alkahest

To run Alkahest on PC you need at least a 3.0 GHz Quad Core CPU processor and a GeForce GTX 1060 with 3GB of video RAM or Radeon RX 580 with 4GB of video RAM, with 8GB of RAM and 15GB of free storage. For higher settings and frame rates, the recommended specs are a 3.6 GHz Quad Core CPU and a GeForce RTX or Radeon RX5600 or above with 16GB of RAM.

Meeting the Alkahest minimum requirements (a GeForce GTX 1060 with 3GB of video RAM or Radeon RX 580 with 4GB of video RAM) is enough to launch the game, but it won't give you high frame rates at 1440p or 4K. The recommended GeForce RTX or Radeon RX5600 or above is a solid target, and stepping up to a GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5080 or Radeon RX 9070 XT gives you the headroom for ultra settings, ray tracing and high-refresh play. On mid-range cards, DLSS 4 and FSR frame generation can lift Alkahest's frame rate substantially, while a flagship RTX 5090 drives 4K at maximum settings.

The processor matters just as much: pairing your graphics card with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D or an Intel Core Ultra, at least 16GB (ideally 32GB) of DDR5 RAM and a fast Gen5 NVMe SSD removes the stutter and long load times that can hold Alkahest back. For modern textures at 4K, aim for a GPU with 12–16GB of VRAM so you never run short.

The same premium components also decide whether your rig is VR ready: if you game in virtual reality on a Meta Quest 3, Valve Index or PlayStation VR2, a strong GPU and CPU are what hold a steady 90 FPS.
