Best Hitman World of Assassination settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1070 (laptop, 8GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1070 (laptop, 8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Hitman World of Assassination runs at roughly 81 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 61FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1070 (laptop, 8GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Hitman World of Assassination is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 81 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 61 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 81 FPS at 1080p and 64 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 42 FPS at 4K. Hitman World of Assassination offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1070 (laptop, 8GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
