VRChat on GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

Meets minimumEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce GTX 1060 3GB meets VRChat's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~34 fps at 1080p high (range 24–44, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. 60 fps at 1080p is out of reach. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the Radeon RX 6600 (~61 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

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 1060 3GB back.
Processor needed for ~34 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
