Mass Effect Legendary Edition on GeForce RTX 4080
Well above recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%
Yes. The GeForce RTX 4080 is well above Mass Effect Legendary Edition's recommended spec. We estimate ~225 fps at 1080p high (range 180–270, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~158 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 4 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: ultra 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 4080 back.
- Processor needed for ~225 fps: Core i9-14900K or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-7700): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 225.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 4080: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 2 GB (+14 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 4 GB (+12 GB headroom)
