No Man's Sky on GeForce GTX 1070

Well above recommendedEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes. The GeForce GTX 1070 is well above No Man's Sky's recommended spec. We estimate ~253 fps at 1080p high (range 177–300+, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~177 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 3 GB the game requires at minimum. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · low confidence, ±30%

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

This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 1070 back.
Processor needed for ~253 fps: Ryzen 9 9900X3D or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).

Video memory

GeForce GTX 1070: 8 GB
Minimum spec: 3 GB (+5 GB headroom)
