Sniper Elite: Resistance on GeForce RTX 3060 12GB
Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB meets Sniper Elite: Resistance's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~38 fps at 1080p high (range 26–49, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1080p, use the low preset. Its 12 GB of video memory covers the 6 GB the game requires at minimum. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB (~61 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

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: low preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: not reachable
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
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 3060 12GB back.
- Processor needed for ~38 fps: Core i3-10100 or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3060 12GB: 12 GB
- Minimum spec: 6 GB (+6 GB headroom)
