Rust on GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
Yes. The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is well above Rust's recommended spec. We estimate ~130 fps at 1080p high (range 104–156, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~91 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 220 | 154 | 93 |
| medium | 168 | 118 | 71 |
| high | 130 | 91 | 54 |
| ultra | 104 | 73 | 44 |
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: medium 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 4070 Ti back.
- Processor needed for ~130 fps: Core i7-10700K or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 7 3700X): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 130.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 4070 Ti: 12 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Rust; usually the cheapest.
