Will not start This card has no ray-tracing hardware, and Gears E-Day requires it. No setting works around that — it is the same line the publisher draws for every GTX card and every Radeon older than the RX 6000 series, however fast the card is otherwise.
Below the minimum The card has ray-tracing hardware, so the game should start, but it sits well under the slowest card the publisher lists. Expect it to struggle even at the lowest settings.
Just under the minimum Within 15% of the slowest card the publisher lists. The lowest preset with upscaling on is likely to be playable; the publisher's minimum target is probably out of reach.
Minimum tier The publisher's target for this tier is 1080p · 60 fps · Medium, with upscaling. The next tier up asks for roughly 55% more than this tier's slowest card.
Recommended tier The publisher's target for this tier is 1440p · 60+ fps · High, with upscaling. The next tier up asks for roughly 106% more than this tier's slowest card.
Ultra tier The publisher's target for this tier is 4K · 60+ fps · Ultra, with upscaling. This is the top of the publisher’s table.

This is an integrated chip. If the PC also has a dedicated graphics card, the browser may simply be running on the integrated one — pick the dedicated card from the list.
Laptop chip: the speed is estimated from its desktop namesake and depends on how much power the laptop gives it, so treat the tier as a guide.
Steam Deck: the chip has ray-tracing hardware but runs at roughly a quarter of the slowest listed card, and the publisher lists no Steam Deck support.
