System needs compatible device and game version for Black Desert Online.
I've thought about the game's system needs and how a low spec can work. Do you have any details about the game or what you actually require? I'm curious if your setup could handle it at 1440p with around 75 FPS. Your current rig includes an Intel Core i5-6600, Nvidia GeForce GTX 960, 1278 MHz clock, 4GB GDDR5 RAM and 16GB DDR3 memory—please let me know if that helps!
It's unlikely you can reach the maximum settings, but adjusting them slightly—perhaps to medium or low—might help achieve around 60 fps (1440p).
The game demands minimal hardware since it initially suffered from significant bugs. It seems to be a short-term solution for poor early performance in Korea, but it hasn’t been fully resolved. Now it runs smoothly on high-end systems, supporting powerful GPUs and fast CPUs without dropping below 60 FPS everywhere. However, the engine and APIs still struggle, highlighting the need for better game development practices. On another machine with a 4770k and 980ti, similar results were observed. TLDR: Focus on overall playability rather than chasing perfect frame rates; performance will follow naturally.
Sorry but I doubt the claims are true. The game doesn’t perform well across all situations—it’s more about software limits than hardware. I’d bet on important system components not delivering consistent 60 FPS throughout. Typical player reports sit between 30 and 60 FPS, with 30-45 in cities, 40-60 in busy spots or villages, and up to 60 in open wilderness. Some reports even mention as low as 20 during intense fights. I’m always open to being proven wrong, especially if it leads to a positive result. Please share a video showing you maintain steady 60 FPS.
