Can this PC run Saints Row: The Third?

The 2011 PC build and Remastered publish different minimums. Match your CPU, RAM, and GPU to the row for the app you own. This checker does not guess frames per second, including on a new GPU such as a 5080.

Two spec sheets

2011 minimum, from Steam: Windows XP, a 2 GHz dual core, 2 GB RAM, a 320 MB Shader Model 3.0 GPU, DirectX 9.0c, 10 GB. Recommended: Windows 7, a quad core or a 3 GHz dual core, 4 GB RAM, a 1 GB Shader Model 4.0 GPU, DirectX 11. Co-op notes on the wiki add extra VRAM on some 2008-era cards.

Remastered minimum: Windows 10 64-bit, a 3.4 GHz class CPU (FX 6000 or Core i5-3000), 8 GB RAM, 4 GB VRAM with DirectX 11 and Shader Model 6.0, 25 GB. Recommended: 3.5 GHz class, 16 GB RAM, 6 GB VRAM and Shader Model 6.1. I copy those strings rather than translating them into a “can run” percentage.

Steam’s Remastered sheet has a discrepancy: its DirectX field says 9.0, while its GPU text requires DirectX 11 and Shader Model 6.0 or 6.1. Both strings are preserved rather than combined into a new requirement. The 2011 operating-system lines are historical game minimums; current Steam-client support is a separate requirement.

Phone specs are a different page

Android and iOS minimums are not PC specs. Use the phone checker if the question is a Redmi or an iPhone. Polish readers looking for “wymagania” can use the Polish page, which repeats these same two PC sheets.

FAQ

How much RAM does Remastered need?

8 GB minimum and 16 GB recommended, according to the Steam Remastered page.

Will a 5080 run it?

No official 5080 note exists. The GPU line to compare is the 4 GB / 6 GB VRAM requirement, not a frame estimate.
