Black Desert on GeForce RTX 3090 Ti
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3090 Ti is well above Black Desert's recommended spec. We estimate ~183 fps at 1080p high (range 147–220, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~128 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 300+ | 218 | 131 |
| medium | 238 | 167 | 100 |
| high | 183 | 128 | 77 |
| ultra | 147 | 103 | 62 |
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: ultra preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: ultra preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
NVIDIA RTX card: turn on DLSS in quality mode before dropping the preset; FSR and XeSS also work if the game lacks DLSS.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti back.
- Processor needed for ~183 fps: Ryzen 5 5600X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU: CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 183.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3090 Ti: 24 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
