Halloween: The Game on GeForce GTX 980

Meets minimumEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce GTX 980 meets Halloween: The Game's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~30 fps at 1080p high (range 21–38, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. 60 fps at 1080p is out of reach. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the GeForce RTX 4060 (~60 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

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 980 back.
