Escape from Tarkov on GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
No. The GeForce GTX 1060 3GB is below Escape from Tarkov's minimum spec (GeForce GTX 1660). Our model still estimates ~30 fps at 1080p low (range 24–37, medium confidence, ±20%), but cards below the minimum may not be supported. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the GeForce RTX 4070 (~60 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

- 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 1060 3GB back.
- Processor needed for ~30 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, ~18 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce GTX 1060 3GB: 3 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
