This article talks about the Hogwarts Legacy PC Performance Benchmarks, and we also will show you how much FPS you can get with different PCs.

Hogwarts Legacy is a brand new title that is developed by Avalanche Studios and published by Warner Brothers. It is a story driven Harry Potter type of Game where you will be getting in to a shoes of a Wizard who joins in as a fifth year student of Hogwarts School. The School is located in a land of wizardry and magic where you will be learning new spells, uncover mysteries and defeat the evil.

You can also build relationships with other students in the school so they can help you later on in the game. This is a single player third person action adventure game set in the 1800s. The game recieved extremely good reviews and we have been enjoying it for a couple of days since its release as we had the deluxe edition which gave us 72 hours early access.

Even though the game and the storyline is very gripping, the performance can let down a lot of people. Yes it is quite graphically intensive and you will be needing flagship hardware to max it out. A lot of the gamers have been complaining regarding its performance issues both everything will be resolved with future updates, the devs promised.

However we still decided to go on and benchmark the game on different systems to find out how it performs on all of them. We also included a comparision to see if the game improves performance when moving from a 16GB RAM to 32GB RAM.

So without further delay, let’s quickly check out the performance of Hogwarts Legacy on different test systems.

So this was all about the Hogwarts Legacy Performance on different Gaming PCs. We would like to add here that although the game had one of the best launches this year and it is a AAA title that even non-Potter fans would enjoy.

But we would like to comment on the performance of the game and it does need a litte bit more optimization because of the frequent frame drops specially when you are outside Hogwarts School. Those small microstutters sometimes disturb the experience of the game and this is the only issue that needs to be addressed by the devs.

Thats all folks!
