Overclocked RTX 4060 Ti Gameplay Performance – 1080p

We are going to focus first on the 1080p gameplay performance with the Overclocked GeForce RTX 4060 Ti video card.  We will include DLSS and FSR performance on the same graph in the games that are supported.  We will use DLSS on NVIDIA GPUs and FSR on AMD GPUs.  Ray Tracing performance will be shown on a separate page.  For video card comparisons we are using a Radeon RX 6650 XT and GeForce RTX 3060 Ti video cards.

Returnal

Returnal was launched on the PC in February of 2023 and is based on Unreal Engine 4. The game supports real-time ray tracing effects, particle systems, and volumetric rendering. We utilize the graphics preset to set EPIC graphics settings with unlocked framerate, and everything is enabled except ray tracing, we have screen-space reflections on. We use the built-in benchmark.

Returnal 1080p

In Returnal, at 1080p and EPIC game settings, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti offers a playable experience at 99FPS. Overclocking the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti improves performance by 6% and puts performance at 105FPS. DLSS improves by 5%. When overclocked, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is now 14% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti.

The Callisto Protocol

The Callisto Protocol was released in December of 2022 on the PC and is based on Unreal Engine 4. We run the game in DX12 mode with unlimited framerate, and all graphics settings enabled and at the highest graphics settings. This game supports ray tracing, and FSR upscaling only, we use FSR2 for testing. We use the built-in benchmark.

The Callisto Protocol 1080p

In The Callisto Protocol, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is playable at 93FPS at 1080p with the highest quality settings. Overclocking the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti increased performance by 6% and brought it up to 98FPS. When overclocked, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is now 14% faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II was released on October 27, 2022, on the PC and uses the IW 9.0 gaming engine. The game supports all upscaling methods, and we use the highest quality option of each. We customize every graphics setting to the maximum value for the best image quality and enable everything. We use the built-in benchmark.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II 1080p

In Call of Duty Modern Warfare II the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is playable at 116FPS with the highest settings at 1080p. Overclocking the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti did not increase performance a whole lot, just 4%, and no real noticeable change in performance. When overclocked, the RTX 4060 Ti is 26% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti, which is impressive in this game.

Chernobylite Enhanced Edition

Chernobylite, based on Unreal Engine 4, was released on the PC in 2021, but the Enhanced Edition update for the game was released in April 2022. The Enhanced Edition provides a visual overhaul of the game with better textures, plus introduces tessellation and ray tracing features. It features raytraced reflections, raytraced translucency, raytraced caustics, and raytraced dynamic diffuse global illumination. It supports upscaling, and we use the highest quality. We use the built-in benchmark.

Chernobylite Enhanced Edition 1080p

In Chernobylite Enhanced Edition the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is more than playable at the highest settings at 1080p at 150FPS. Overclocking the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti increased performance by just 5%, which wasn’t much. When overclocked, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is now 24% faster than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti which is decent.

Dying Light 2

Dying Light 2 was released in February 2022 on the PC and uses Techland’s C-Engine.  The game supports Ray Tracing, DLSS, and FSR2.  We use the built-in preset to set “HIGH QUALITY” which sets the highest game graphics, without Ray Tracing.  We manually enable DX12 and ASYNC Compute.  We use the built-in benchmark.

Dying Light 2 1080p

In Dying Light 2 the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is playable at 128FPS at 1080p with the highest game settings. Overclocking the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti increases performance by 8% up to 138FPS, which is decent. When overclocked the RTX 4060 Ti is 12% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti, which overall isn’t a large uplift.

Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077 was released in December 2020 and uses the REDengine 4. We have the game patched to version 1.62 and utilize the built-in benchmark. We test using the Graphics Preset option to set graphics settings to “Ultra”.  We utilize the highest quality upscaling. 

Cyberpunk 2077 1080p

In Cyberpunk 2077 the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti is playable at over 100FPS at 1080p with “Ultra” settings. Overclocking the RTX 4060 Ti improves performance by 7% up to almost 110FPS. When overclocked the RTX 4060 Ti is 16% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti.
