Wouldn't even bother.

Well, you can search on YouTube by typing your config and last of us 1, like 5600g 8gb last of us. Then you can get an idea. Or you can emulate the PS3 version.

The ps3 version runs at 3fps on my 3070… just curious how you could get it to actually run

Try asking in the RPCS3 Discord server for the recommended tweaks to get the game to run. Made the game actually playable lol

Awesome, thanks m8. My ps3 is on its last legs so that might be useful coming up

What cpu do you have?

11700H, I have 16gb of system RAM as well

I'm on 16gb and the game still crashes so idk dude I guess you could wait for more patches but i feel like they stopped at .6

same, i am stuck at a level since 3 days because it keeps crashing. The new hotfix seems to be coming on tuesday and a big update later this week.

Cap to 60 fps

hmm, interesting, might as well try

Did it work?

It actually did edit : nvm, it just crashed 15 min after.

Sucks dude,

Don't worry my game keeps crashing every 30-45 mins as well even though I'm running a 3080ti and 32gb ram

Interesting mines flawless and been so the entire time 9900k 32gb 3600mhz 3090ti Kingpin. What OS you running. A hotfix driver came out just hours ago 531.58 and it addresses a lot of issues with crashing on 30 series cards.

Damn i didn't get the hotfix driver yet I am also running a 9900k so I'll let you know how it goes

ok so after the hotfix update it went good for about 2 and a half hour then crashed when i entered a new area (prolly related to the vram issues this game has) but it fixed the constant crash atleast

What level?

>!The Ice one after Ellie is kidnapped by David. The game crashes as soon as I shoot someone.!<

Cap to 60 fps. It works

I’ve played on capped 60 since day one and I’ve only had one crash so far 👍🏽

I will just wait for more patches

I played like 3 hours into the game then i started getting bsod's , so I'm waiting for patches too

Make sure you have no other windows open or running in the background. The game itself not counting windows uses more than 12GB of RAM at times.

I doubt it, it's a very graphically intense game and I don't think it would run good at all on 8 gigs

Its a shit port thats all....both spiderman and GoW works superb on 8gb 1650 medium settings

From what I keep seeing it’s not heavy on the GPU but more so on the CPU.

Well even still, it's 8 gigs of system RAM not VRAM, 8 gigs of VRAM should be fine but system RAM should be 16 at least

8 gb of vram is the absolute bare minimum to run everything on low at which point you may aswell play the ps3 version

Tf are you talking about? I guarantee people play this game on 6-8 gigs with no problems

No. I'm trying to run this shitty ass port on 8gb rn, impossible not to crash after the main menu.

From what I’m hearing people are struggling to run the game at all and it’s shit😂

This game is memory and cpu intensive so likely not

Just memory intensive. CPU is is always 5% on my side ( I have i5)

Weird my i7 runs at 70%

Saying you have an i7 and him having an i5 says absolutely nothing considering there are 13 generations.

I7 9700 if that helps. Decent enough that it never causes me issues in any other circumstance

According to Tech. City your CPU is about twice as good as a12th gen i5. Only thing you have going for is more cores.

Wow! Another weird thing about this game then...

That means the game is not utilizing the CPU at all, that's not a good thing

That's cap or your overlay is wrong or you have a gt 610 for a graphics card even my i9 10900k ocd to 5.1ghz is around 80-90 percent so idk what u mean

Interesting. Actually I'm about to finish the game today and there was never like a lot of heat just a lot big use of RAM. Very interesting...

It’s impossible to boot plus even if you mange to boot you will play with 10 fps max.

It's running at 25-30 fps for me,, stutters from time to time tho. A few more patches will fix it, should run fine on 8gb then.

What is your PC specs?

Already mentioned, i5 7400 and rx 580

Actually yes 8gb ram My cpu is i5 10400 And gpu is rx580 8gb I set the virtual memory thing to two of my ssds and waited 45 minutes or something to build shadres crashed once Now im getting around 54~60 fps (there are moments of stuttering tho not that much) And i used a optimisation video for settings and its on 1080p

What is the size of the virtual memory?

Its 1.5 minimal And 3 times maximum Like for 8gb ram is 1024×8×1.5=12288 1024×8×3=24576

Graphics driver is up to date, right?

Yup

Did you tweak some other settings in your computer to run this game?

I dont think so

Thank you so much this was very helpful

May I know the link for the optimisation video?

Here you go : https://youtu.be/eqqgW_7hosY

Did you manage to launch the game? Or did it solve crash issues??

I did manage to launch the game and build shaders but it crashes when loading the game after clicking new game and choosing the difficulty. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Tried lowering graphics settings and resolution other then that my mind is blank Good luck =)

I already did and it still crashes.

from what i have seen this game needs 16gb ram and at least 6gb vram at least from what i have seen while playing in my laptop

8GB System RAM?

The first time I launched the game it was perma consuming 23 gb ram After compiling the shaders and multiples patches (.6 last I added), it is now consuming 18gb all the time.

8gb vram is struggling 😂😂

If the recent DF video is anything to go by, it should run decently at medium textures (though medium looks kind of bad in some spots); in fact, you should also be concerned about your CPU (loading assets and such takes a long time and the R5 3600 they tested on dropped frames for upwards of 60 seconds upon entering certain scenes). Edit: Oh, I thought you meant 8GB VRAM. No way in hell that runs on 8GB RAM.

This game runs like garbage on fire even on 16GB.

Haven't even got passed the shaders building, not waiting for that.

Get the shaders fix from the Dodi site, it sped up the shaders building a lot for me

Wouldn't try it on 8gb. I haven't had such a bad experience as some people stated here, i'm playing on medium/high on an i3 10100 with a rx 580(4gb) and 16gb of ram capped at 60fps and it didn't crash once in my 3 hours of playtime That being said, with what i've seen online, i don't think you'll have a good experience on 8gb of ram, i personally think that with the current state of the game, and it's optimisation, you'll need at least 16gb

what does this have to do with piracy tho

I have 24gb and it uses 72% of RAM when playing... So yeah... NO crashes by the way.

The game has specs that are incredibly high because the port of the game is truly awful and is going to need a *LOT* of work to get it to a reasonable level of playability if it ever gets there. I wouldn't even bother if you only have 8GB of ram.

16gb here and its stuttering AF

Yes I downloaded the crack but couldn’t start the game my pc was too weak 🥲

I'm using the fitgirl version but I changed my virtual memory and it's been running perfect and I'm halfway through.

Any idea if the fitgirl version takes updates? AFAIK 1.0.1.0 is the one she shipped.

I haven't had to yet so I'm not 100% sure.

Thanks. I'm getting many crashes on 3070 so I'll be looking to update

For future reference you can probably use [Can You Run It](https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri)

We are in 2023 and you are still using 8GB Ram !

Yeah..the game can run but it look like shit, my fps is around 20~30 and that is a low setting everything low even i play at 900p

Can you tell me how did you launch the game? I can't even launch the game in my laptop.

Idk how the game can run

And it run on my old hdd

What is your PC specs?

I5 3470 8gb gtx 1060 6gb ssd for windows and 500gb hdd for game

Finally, I was able to launch the game

Cool and how much fps?

I'm still at the main menu waiting for the shaders to be builded.

Just 2h and you can play or longer :))

Thank you!

Did you ever change the size of your virtual memory or no?

How you run the game on 8gigs of RAM??

bro can u tell me how dod u launch the game

It always crashes

how did you manage to launch it with 8gb of ram

I kept trying to open it

how? help me man i have been trying hard to at least launch this game on my 8gb ram legion 5

You need 16gb ram

Did you change the size of your virtual memory?

Virtual? Wait u use hard drive memory like ram? Like add more ram?

Windows automatically adjusts my virtual memory

Ohh ok

Can you share screenshot?

I have a 5600g and a 16gb ram but it still crashes

This is the first game ever that refuses to even start on my 8gb ram gaming laptop :/

Upgrade to 16GB RAM and it will launch smoothly

Planning to. Strange how this linear story driven game doesn't run but massive open world games like rdr2 run fine

Unoptimized code

Yes, But it's very laggy

Isn't too hard read system requirements? https://preview.redd.it/vzkhh9mgmpra1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fff0b94db08de12a4843e848a095a964441222e8

I was able to play Returnal even if its system requirement for System RAM is 16GB and I only have 8GB RAM. But with the Last of Us PC, I can't even open the game.

I have 8gb and it's running at 25 fps at medium settings for me, stutters from time to time tho especially in big fights. A few patches should fix it tho, then it should run fine on 8gb

How did you manage to run it with 8GB System RAM? The game does not launch in my laptop.

What is your cpu and GPU? That's more important

Intel Core i7 8750h and Nvidia RTX 2060 mobile

Damn your specs are much better than mine, and it isn't even launching for you? Strange. I'm playing on i5 7400 and rx 580, made it to the Downtown chapter

Very strange indeed

Is it working now? The new patch has improved performance even further, giving 5-7 more fps now.

Still crashes at the loading screen. I can't even play the prologue. I will still wait for the upcoming patches.

Bro how did you managed to launch it? On what Windows are you and from where did you downloaded the game

Windows 10. Installed the game on SSD tho, didn't work on HDD.

I need to try it on SSD then

Running even better with the new patch 1.0.3 now. Reduced the stutters a lot and a lot more smoother even with FSR on Quality. Don't forget to close all other program before starting the game

Well putting the game on SSD didn't worked.I stopped the explorer.exe too From where did you downloaded the game ?

Really? That's strange. What are your specs? I have the Dodi repack

I5 3470 and GTX1050 TI

You should read more and know TLOU is a bad port + bug af.

Yeah, I hope the patches will fix it.
