Pros & cons

  • Generous 16.0GB VRAM — comfortable headroom for high-res textures and modding
  • Supports upscaling (FSR) for extra headroom at higher resolutions
  • Efficient — lower power draw, easier to cool and pair with a smaller PSU
  • Best suited to 1080p at Medium/High rather than 1440p or 4K

Frequently asked questions

It depends entirely on the game, resolution, settings and the CPU it's paired with — there is no single answer. Use the calculator above to get an estimate for your exact combination, or see the sample results table for a few reference points.

Based on its relative performance index (3/100), we'd suggest 1080p (Medium/Low) as the most comfortable target for this GPU at High/Ultra settings.

Yes — its ray tracing support tier is rated 'mid' in our catalog, meaning a moderate to significant frame rate cost when RT is enabled, partly offset by upscaling if supported.

For a balanced build, CPUs like AMD Athlon 3000G, Intel Celeron G6900 tend to match this GPU's performance tier well — see the recommended CPUs panel for links.
