Pros & cons

  • Among the strongest GPUs in this catalog
  • Generous 24GB VRAM — comfortable headroom for high-res textures and modding
  • Supports upscaling (FSR) for extra headroom at higher resolutions
  • High power draw (355W) — needs a capable PSU and case airflow

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 (88/100), we'd suggest 4K 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 Ryzen 9 9950X, Intel Core i7-14700K tend to match this GPU's performance tier well — see the recommended CPUs panel for links.
