Best League of Legends settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), League of Legends runs at roughly 143 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 143FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and League of Legends is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it flies at 1080p — about 143 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 143 FPS at 1080p and 86 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 57 FPS at 4K. League of Legends doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.
