NBA 2K27 on Radeon RX 9070
Yes. The Radeon RX 9070 is well above NBA 2K27's recommended spec. We estimate ~148 fps at 1080p high (range 118–177, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~103 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.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 251 | 176 | 105 |
| medium | 192 | 134 | 81 |
| high | 148 | 103 | 62 |
| ultra | 118 | 83 | 50 |
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 back.
- Processor needed for ~148 fps: Ryzen 5 9600 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 148.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 9070: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 5 GB (+11 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+8 GB headroom)
