NBA 2K27 on GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB
Yes. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is well above NBA 2K27's recommended spec. We estimate ~104 fps at 1080p high (range 83–125, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the high preset (~73 fps on high). Its 16 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 | 176 | 123 | 74 |
| medium | 135 | 94 | 57 |
| high | 104 | 73 | 44 |
| ultra | 83 | 58 | 35 |
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: high preset
- 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 5060 Ti 16GB back.
- Processor needed for ~104 fps: Core i7-10700K or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-10600K): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 104.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 5 GB (+11 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+8 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in NBA 2K27; usually the cheapest.
