Cities: Skylines on GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB

Well above recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is well above Cities: Skylines's recommended spec. We estimate 300+ fps at 1080p high (range 284–300+, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~248 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 5 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
