Is This a Good Graphics Card For This Game?

[thelostgirl74]

I am considering buying an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 as it is a good price and an upgrade from my NVidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. How much more of a boost will this give me?

Depends on the resolution u want. a 6750 xt is good 4 1080p and a 6900xt is good 4 1440p. Thats AMD I'm not aware of the Nvidia results.

Sorry but a 4060 won't be nearly as powerful to run this properly. You will struggle on 1080p. You need a 4080 at least, 4090 is optimal.

I am no tech expert, but from what I'm seeing it sounds like your processor is probably more important. You can get improvement from better GPU, but if your processor is lacking, it's probably not going to matter. Supply your processor info and someone will help for sure.

Userbenchmark is 100% fraudulent and incorrect information, you are WAY behind the curve. Gamer's Nexus and others have already destroyed their credibility years ago.

also blatantly false, game runs perfectly fine on a 7900xt at 1920x1080 which is what this guy would be playing at with a 1660ti

Lmao don't buy the 4060, it's an awful card

[Darklord]

This game is extremely unoptimized, it looks like different variations of hardware run differently with this game. Honestly I would just wait for a patch that bethesda will probably take their sweet time to push out.

Huge...but and its a big BUT if your CPU is up to par. You dropping that in an intel I5 processor? Then you'll probably get a whooping 25% boost before you CPU becomes your bottle neck. With a new gen intel I7 series, ya, you'll gain from 100-200%.

But now you'll need to also factor in your monitor resolution.

If your on a 1080p monitor and you move to a 4060 you'll actually lose FPS cause your not at 1440p as contrary as that sounds.

If your on an i5 with a 1080p monitor a 3070 is as big as you can go before you start bottle necking.

Source: I5-8600k, 1070Ti, 16GB DDR4, 1920x1080p monitor. Currently in your position with probably near identical PCs.

You are a total idiot. 7900xt is comporable to a 4080, which is exactly what I said. 4060 is a POS. Please take some adderall because you are low functioning, or keep your mouth shut, loser

lol the 7900xt performs worse than the 4080, and you shouldn't call people low functioning when you haven't bothered looking in a mirror.

It's an unoptimized turd show.
Even the best PC can't keep 60 fps at 4k so....keep that in mind

[Fading_Drifter]

i have seen it run on a 2070 just fine. the ssd is required though so no matter what graphics card or cpu you have it will suck without an ssd. they are cheap as hell now and if you are willing to spend a couple grand on graphics card there is no reason you cant spend 50 bucks on an ssd.

My processor is Intel Core i5 4670k

I can't run Starfield at Ultra settings, but my visual quality at 1080p and framerate is decent for a potato powered by an i7-12700K with only 64 GB of DDR4, NVMe and SATA 6Gbit SSDs, and an RTX2060 that was on the shelves the first week it released. With DLSS mod, I am routinely seeing 40 to 60 FPS in the big cities and consistent over 60 FPS in space, inside instances, and "wilderness."
