Important: The listing publishes a minimum specification rather than a guaranteed FPS target. Competitive settings, resolution, and refresh rate still matter. This page does not guarantee FPS, frame-time stability, or a particular graphics preset.

Build around the game, not only the GPU

Check CPU headroom, system memory, storage, power supply, cooling, and monitor resolution together. A graphics card that meets a minimum list can still be a poor fit for a weak power supply, a cramped case, or a CPU-bound competitive setup.

Open the AbuAlu PC Builder to compare compatible components and current Iraq catalog prices. You can also browse graphics cards and processors directly.
