Foundation on GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
Yes. The GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is well above Foundation's recommended spec. We estimate ~101 fps at 1080p high (range 81–122, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the high preset (~71 fps on high). Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 3 GB the game requires at minimum. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 172 | 121 | 72 |
| medium | 132 | 92 | 55 |
| high | 101 | 71 | 43 |
| ultra | 81 | 57 | 34 |
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: high preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: low 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 4060 Ti 16GB back.
- Processor needed for ~101 fps: Ryzen 3 3300X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 101.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 3 GB (+13 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Foundation; usually the cheapest.
