Apex Legends on GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti meets Apex Legends's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~40 fps at 1080p high (range 32–48, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1080p, use the low preset. Its 4 GB of video memory covers the 2 GB the game requires at minimum. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB (~73 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 68 | 48 | 29 |
| medium | 52 | 36 | 22 |
| high | 40 | 28 | 17 |
| ultra | 32 | 22 | 13 |
Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: low preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: not reachable
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti back.
- Processor needed for ~40 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU: still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~40 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce GTX 1050 Ti: 4 GB
- Minimum spec: 2 GB (+2 GB headroom)
