PEAK FPS Calculator & System Requirements

PEAK is a lightweight co-op climbing adventure developed by Landfall Games, released June 2025, focused on stylized visuals rather than graphical fidelity, which keeps hardware demands modest. To run the game your PC must reach a CPU performance score of at least 30 and a GPU score of at least 38. As a visually intensive title, PEAK rewards hardware above the recommended threshold — particularly for ray tracing, high-resolution shadow maps, and ambient occlusion. At the recommended tier (CPU 55, GPU 62) expect around 60 FPS at 1080p on high settings. Enter your CPU and GPU in our calculator for a personalized estimate.

PEAK lists these minimum specifications: CPU — Intel Core i5-2520M or equivalent; GPU — NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT; RAM — 8 GB RAM; Storage — 4 GB available space; OS — Windows 10 64-bit. At the minimum tier, expect the game to run at low or medium presets with frame rates around 30 FPS at 1080p. Demanding scenes — dense environments, complex lighting, or heavy particle effects — may dip below this. Disabling ray tracing and lowering shadow quality deliver the highest performance recovery on minimum-spec hardware.

For the best PEAK experience, the recommended specifications are: CPU — Intel Core i5 @ 3.0 GHz or AMD Ryzen 5; GPU — NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT; RAM — 16 GB RAM; Storage — 6 GB available space. This hardware level targets smooth 60 FPS at 1080p on high settings with stable frame times. Enabling ray tracing, high-resolution shadow maps, and ambient occlusion simultaneously calls for a GPU above the recommended tier. If you are targeting 1440p on ultra presets, check our FPS calculator for the exact scores required.

On hardware meeting PEAK's recommended specifications, expect around 60 FPS at 1080p on high settings. Enabling ray tracing, ultra shadow resolution, or screen-space ambient occlusion can reduce that figure by 15–30% depending on your GPU. Minimum-spec hardware typically achieves 25–40 FPS at 1080p on low-to-medium presets. Moving to 1440p costs roughly 30% of your 1080p frame rate, and 4K approximately 50–60%. Enter your exact hardware in our FPS calculator for a personalized estimate across every quality preset.

For high graphics settings in PEAK at 1080p, your GPU needs a performance score of at least 62. The officially recommended card is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT, which targets 60 FPS at 1080p. Enabling ray tracing on top of high settings demands significantly more GPU headroom — plan for a score well above 62 if RT is a priority. For 1440p on high settings, a GPU scoring around 81 or better is advisable. The FPS calculator lists every compatible GPU ranked by expected performance for this title.

PEAK requires a CPU with a minimum performance score of 30 — roughly the level of Intel Core i5-2520M or equivalent or better. For a smooth experience without CPU bottlenecks, target the recommended score of 55 (around Intel Core i5 @ 3.0 GHz or AMD Ryzen 5). As a graphically rich title, it can stress the CPU in densely populated areas, complex physics sequences, or large set-piece moments. A CPU at the recommended score paired with 16 GB RAM ensures the processor does not throttle your GPU's potential output in those scenarios.

At 1440p, expect roughly 25–35% lower frame rates than 1080p in PEAK. On hardware at the recommended tier (GPU score 62), this translates to around 42 FPS on high settings. To maintain 60+ FPS at 1440p, target a GPU scoring around 81 or higher. Use the FPS calculator above to get a precise estimate for your specific CPU and GPU combination at 1440p across every quality preset.

4K demands roughly 55–65% more GPU power than 1080p in PEAK. On the recommended GPU (score 62), expect around 25 FPS at 4K on high settings. Reaching a consistent 60 FPS at 4K requires a GPU scoring around 102 or better. Upscaling technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3 can recover 40–60% of the resolution overhead with minimal visual cost on supported hardware.

PEAK supports both solo and co-op play. You can attempt the climbing adventure alone, but the game is designed with up to 4-player co-op in mind, and many challenges are more manageable with teammates.

This is a known oddity in PEAK's official Steam requirements. The GTX 1060 and RX 6600 XT are from different generations with different performance levels. The GTX 1060 represents the true minimum baseline, while the RX 6600 XT listing likely reflects AMD driver/feature compatibility rather than a strict performance floor.
