iRacing Studios NASCAR 26 on Radeon RX 9070 XT
Well above recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%
Yes. The Radeon RX 9070 XT is well above iRacing Studios NASCAR 26's recommended spec. We estimate ~156 fps at 1080p high (range 125–187, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~109 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 8 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · medium confidence, ±20%
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: ultra preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: high preset
AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon RX 9070 XT back.
- Processor needed for ~156 fps: Ryzen 9 9950X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 9 3900X): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 156.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 9070 XT: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 4 GB (+12 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+8 GB headroom)
