- 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 3060 8GB back.
- Processor needed for ~102 fps: Core i5-10600K or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-9600K): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 102.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3060 8GB: 8 GB
- Minimum spec: 2 GB (+6 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 3 GB (+5 GB headroom)
