Chief among them, unfortunately, is that it just doesn’t run very well. Now, you may have heard this already, but Mass Effect: Andromeda isn’t without its faults. Your numbers are going to vary based on the strength of your hardware, but they should be proportional - for instance, turning down your resolution or lighting settings won’t yield the exact same frame rates we experienced, but the relative amount they change should be about the same. It’s important to point out that we’re not testing this PC’s hardware, we’re testing how the game performs with different settings. We ran, jumped, and shot our way through a varied outdoor environment, gleefully frolicked in an extraterrestrial pond, and ran a circuit inside a space ship. For most of our tests, we’ll be running the game in 1440p. That’s a pretty powerful machine, so it should be able to get the most out of Mass Effect: Andromeda with all the settings maxed out. To make sure that our internal components weren’t going to drag performance down, we used an Intel Core i7-6950X CPU, clocked at 3.0GHz, 16GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 with 6GB of RAM. To test Mass Effect: Andromeda we used a PC with a mix of high-end and mid-range components. Whether you’re a seasoned PC gamer looking to get the most out of an old PC, or a newcomer looking to decipher all those settings in the graphics menu, we’ve got you covered. So, we’ve gone ahead and tested each individual setting in Mass Effect, to determine which ones have the biggest impact on your performance, and on how your game looks overall.
