Can I Run Black Myth: Wukong?
Choose the two parts in your machine and this page says whether Black Myth: Wukong will run, roughly what frame rate to expect from Black Myth: Wukong, and what its developer actually asked for when they published the Black Myth: Wukong requirements, with nothing to download and no detection tool to install.
Yes, comfortably
Comfortably. The GeForce RTX 4060 is well past what Black Myth: Wukong recommends, so expect roughly 79 fps at 1080p (1920 x 1080) with room to raise settings further.

Black Myth: Wukong system requirements, as published
Reproduced exactly as the developer of Black Myth: Wukong wrote them, so every figure in this table is theirs rather than our reading of what Black Myth: Wukong needs.

|---|---|---|

| Graphics | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 / AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT / INTEL Arc A750 |
| Memory | 16 GB | 16 GB |
The Black Myth: Wukong requirements above were retrieved from its own Steam listing, app 2358720, and reproduced unchanged, and because a patch to Black Myth: Wukong can change them that listing is the authority if a figure here looks stale. The verdict and the frame rate shown for Black Myth: Wukong are ours, modelled from our hardware index rather than measured on a test bench. Steam listing. How we calculate this.
What the Black Myth: Wukong requirements actually mean
For Black Myth: Wukong the minimum card resolves to 14.0 on our index and the recommended one to 25.0, a step of 79%, which is the normal shape of a requirements sheet: the minimum keeps Black Myth: Wukong running and the recommended figure is the one to aim at if the frame rate is meant to stay steady.
Of the 89 graphics cards we track, 85 clear the Black Myth: Wukong minimum and 66 clear its recommended spec, so 19 cards land in between: fast enough to start Black Myth: Wukong and slow enough that the settings menu is where the rest of the work gets done.
The cheapest card still on sale that clears what Black Myth: Wukong recommends is the Arc A580 at 25.0 on our index against the 25.0 Black Myth: Wukong asks for, and since everything below it on the current shelf falls under that bar, the Arc A580 is where the Black Myth: Wukong question stops being about the card.
The oldest card in our database that still gets over the Black Myth: Wukong minimum is the GeForce GTX 980 Ti from 2015, which is worth knowing before replacing anything: if what you have is that card or newer, Black Myth: Wukong will start, and the question becomes which settings rather than whether.
Black Myth: Wukong asks for 16 GB of system memory and names no higher figure, so 16 GB is the whole memory requirement for Black Myth: Wukong and anything above it is spare rather than useful.
Black Myth: Wukong states 6 GB of card memory in its own minimum, which is below the roughly 6 GB a 1080p build generally wants and 8 GB for 1440p, so on a card at the Black Myth: Wukong floor the texture setting is the first control to come down and the one that buys back the most.
The Black Myth: Wukong processor requirement is one of the few we could resolve against our own index, at 42.0 for the minimum, and 83 of the 83 processors we track clear it, which is why the Black Myth: Wukong verdict above leans on the card: the chip is rarely the part that decides whether Black Myth: Wukong runs.
