Dead by Daylight on GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
Yes. The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti meets Dead by Daylight's recommended spec. We estimate ~69 fps at 1080p high (range 55–82, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~48 fps on high). Its 4 GB of video memory covers the 4 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 117 | 82 | 49 |
| medium | 89 | 62 | 37 |
| high | 69 | 48 | 29 |
| ultra | 55 | 38 | 23 |
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: high preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: medium preset
- 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 ~69 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, ~69 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce GTX 1050 Ti: 4 GB
- Minimum spec: 1 GB (+3 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 4 GB (+0 GB headroom)
