Building a PC to play Crash Bandicoot™ 4: It’s About Time at its best

Meeting the Crash Bandicoot™ 4: It’s About Time minimum requirements (a Nvidia GTX 660/AMD Radeon HD 7950) is enough to launch the game, but it won't give you high frame rates at 1440p or 4K. The recommended Nvidia GTX 970/AMD R9 390 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 Crash Bandicoot™ 4: It’s About Time'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 Crash Bandicoot™ 4: It’s About Time 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.
