War Thunder on GeForce RTX 2080 Super

Well above recommendedEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes. The GeForce RTX 2080 Super is well above War Thunder's recommended spec. We estimate ~154 fps at 1080p high (range 108–200, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~108 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. 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: high 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 2080 Super back.
Processor needed for ~154 fps: Ryzen 7 7700X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 5 3600): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 154.

Video memory

GeForce RTX 2080 Super: 8 GB
The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
