About
For a smooth experience in Absence, an entry-level GPU like the GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is sufficient, allowing players to run the game comfortably at 1080p with medium settings. Since the game was released in 2016, it is not particularly demanding, making it accessible even for budget-conscious gamers. If you have a more powerful GPU, such as a GTX 1660 or RX 5600 XT, you can easily push settings to high and enjoy the game with improved graphical fidelity.
Players with lower-end hardware may still find a playable experience at 720p with low settings, ensuring that the gameplay remains fluid despite reduced visual quality. Overall, the game is well-optimized for a variety of systems, making it a great choice for casual gamers or those looking to explore a unique narrative without needing high-end specifications. For the best balance between performance and visuals, targeting 1080p with a GTX 1650 or equivalent is recommended.
Performance profile
Released in February 2016, Absence sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.
Absence is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.
Extremely light — Absence runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
