Phasmophobia PC build in 2026

Phasmophobia runs on modest hardware, but co-op sessions punish unbalanced PCs. In 2026 a mainstream entry/mid-tier build is more than enough for comfortable 1080p play.

Recommended configuration

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600/5500 or Core i3-12100F. GPU: GTX 1660 Super or RX 6600. RAM: 16 GB. Storage: NVMe SSD.

This baseline keeps co-op stable, loads maps quickly, and leaves headroom for voice chat and background apps.

Expected performance

At 1080p you can target 90–144 FPS depending on the GPU and map complexity. VR needs extra GPU headroom to avoid reprojection.

The same build also handles GTA V, Apex Legends, and Elden Ring if you tune settings realistically.

What budget should you plan?

For Phasmophobia alone, €500–€700 is often enough. If you also want heavy AAA titles like Hogwarts Legacy, plan closer to €800+.
