Red Dead Redemption 2 on GeForce GTX 1660

Meets recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes. The GeForce GTX 1660 meets Red Dead Redemption 2's recommended spec. We estimate ~69 fps at 1080p high (range 55–83, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~48 fps on high). Its 6 GB of video memory covers the 6 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · medium confidence, ±20%

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: high preset
60 fps at 1440p: medium preset
144 fps at 1080p: not reachable

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 1660 back.
Processor needed for ~69 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i7-4770K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~69 fps.

Video memory

GeForce GTX 1660: 6 GB
Minimum spec: 2 GB (+4 GB headroom)
