NBA 2K27 on GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti meets NBA 2K27's recommended spec. We estimate ~78 fps at 1080p high (range 62–93, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~54 fps on high). Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 8 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 132 | 92 | 55 |
| medium | 101 | 71 | 42 |
| high | 78 | 54 | 33 |
| ultra | 62 | 43 | 26 |
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: medium preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
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 Ti back.
- Processor needed for ~78 fps: Ryzen 3 3300X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-10600K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~78 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3060 Ti: 8 GB
- Minimum spec: 5 GB (+3 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+0 GB headroom)
