The Saboteur System Requirements FAQ

Can I run The Saboteur on a low-end PC?
The Saboteur can run on older hardware. Check the minimum specs: Intel Pentium D 3.0GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200, Nvidia Geforce 7800 GTX (256MB) or ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro (256MB), and 2GB of RAM. If you meet these, you should be able to play, but likely at lower settings.
What GPU do I need for The Saboteur?
For minimum settings, you'll need an Nvidia Geforce 7800 GTX with 256MB of VRAM or an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro with 256MB of VRAM. For better performance, an Nvidia Geforce 8800 GT with 512MB of VRAM or an ATI Radeon HD 3850 with 512MB of VRAM is recommended.
How much RAM does The Saboteur need?
The Saboteur requires a minimum of 2GB of RAM. While the recommended specs also list 2GB, having more RAM can improve overall system performance, especially if you're running other applications in the background.
Will The Saboteur run on integrated graphics?
It's unlikely that The Saboteur will run well, or at all, on most integrated graphics solutions from the time of its release. Integrated graphics generally lack the dedicated VRAM and processing power required for the game. You'll need a dedicated graphics card.
What is the best graphics settings for The Saboteur?
The 'best' settings depend on your hardware. Start with medium settings and adjust from there. Pay close attention to texture quality and shadow detail, as these can significantly impact performance. If your framerate is low, reduce these settings first.
