Backburner System Requirements: Minimum & Recommended PC Specs

Minimum System Requirements

Before diving into the world of food truck management in Backburner, ensure your PC meets the baseline specifications. These minimum requirements allow you to run the game at lower settings with acceptable performance.

Backburner is currently in Early Access on PC. System requirements may change as the developer, Jankyhand Games, continues to optimize and expand the game.

The following are the confirmed minimum system requirements needed to launch and play Backburner:

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • Processor: Intel Core i3-6100 or AMD FX-4350
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 (2 GB VRAM)
  • DirectX: Version 11
  • Storage: 4 GB available space

For a smoother experience with higher visual fidelity and stable frame rates, especially in busier areas of the open world, Jankyhand Games recommends the following hardware.

Meeting the recommended specs will allow you to enjoy Backburner with improved textures, shadows, and draw distances.

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit) or Windows 11
  • Processor: Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580 (4 GB VRAM)
  • DirectX: Version 11
  • Storage: 4 GB available space (SSD recommended)

Performance Tips and Optimization

Even if your system falls between the minimum and recommended specs, you can adjust several in-game settings to achieve a playable frame rate. Here are some practical tips for optimizing your experience.

Adjust Resolution Scale

Lowering the resolution scale can significantly boost performance without drastically reducing visual quality. Start at 90% and work your way down.

Disable Shadow Quality

Shadows are often the most demanding setting. Setting shadow quality to Low or Medium can provide a substantial FPS increase on older hardware.

Update Your Drivers

Always ensure your graphics card drivers are up to date. New driver versions often include optimizations for Early Access titles like Backburner.

Understanding the Specs

This section breaks down why certain components are important for running a simulation game like Backburner.

CPU and RAM: The game's simulation aspects—tracking customer orders, food preparation, and business finances—require a steady CPU. The recommended 16 GB of RAM ensures smooth multitasking and prevents stuttering when the game loads new areas of the handcrafted open world.

GPU and Storage: While the game's art style is not hyper-realistic, the GPU is still crucial for rendering the open world at a stable framerate. An SSD is highly recommended if you want to minimize loading times when transitioning between different zones or starting a new service day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run Backburner on a laptop? Yes, as long as your laptop meets the minimum system requirements. Laptops with dedicated graphics cards (such as an NVIDIA GTX 1650 or better) will perform significantly better than those with integrated graphics.

Will Backburner support Mac or Linux? Currently, Backburner is only available for PC (Windows). The developer has not announced plans for Mac or Linux versions.

Does Backburner require an internet connection? No, Backburner is a single-player game and does not require a persistent internet connection to play. You will need an internet connection to download the game from Steam.
