Best Tekken 8 settings for the NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Tekken 8 runs at roughly 112 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 113FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Tekken 8 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs great at 1080p — about 112 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 112 FPS at 1080p and 67 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
