Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER run SCUM?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER clears the minimum bar for SCUM but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 38 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the low preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.
How the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER measures up
| Requirement | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER | Minimum | Recommended | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU performance score | 15 | 13 | 23 | Minimum |

Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the low preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.
At 1440p
Around 24 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 14 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
VRAM headroom
At 4GB you are under the 6GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 38 FPS at 1080p, 24 FPS at 1440p and 14 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the low preset at 1080p.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
