Building a PC to play Dragon Age™ Inquisition at its best

Meeting the Dragon Age™ Inquisition minimum requirements (a AMD Radeon HD 4870/Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT) is enough to launch the game, but it won't give you high frame rates at 1440p or 4K. The recommended AMD Radeon HD 7870 or R9 270/Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 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 Dragon Age™ Inquisition'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 8GB (ideally 32GB) of DDR5 RAM and a fast Gen5 NVMe SSD removes the stutter and long load times that can hold Dragon Age™ Inquisition 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.
