Best The Last of Us Part II Remastered settings for the NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), The Last of Us Part II Remastered runs at roughly 79 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 59FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti is a strong 1440p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and The Last of Us Part II Remastered is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 79 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 59 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 96 FPS at 1080p and 79 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 62 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in The Last of Us Part II Remastered at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 The Last of Us Part II Remastered: VRAM-hungry - on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSQuality+35% FPS
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first; Quality mode is very close to native in this game.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and draw distance. High looks almost identical to Ultra while running noticeably faster.
Screen Space ReflectionsHighbaseline
Reflections on water and wet surfaces. One of the first things to lower — the drop is hard to spot in motion.
Bounced LightingHighbaseline
Indirect bounce lighting that defines the mood - one of the heaviest settings (turning it off can gain ~10%). High is a clean trade.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows that ground objects and characters. Medium is a fine, subtle saving.
Dynamic Objects QualityHighbaseline
Geometry detail of weapons and interactive objects by distance. Lowering is a small, safe gain.
Level of Detail (Geometry)Highbaseline
How far full-detail models render before simplifying. Lowering causes mild pop-in on distant scenery.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. This game is VRAM-hungry; on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.
Motion Blur / Depth of FieldOnbaseline
Pure preference and barely touches FPS — many players switch these off for a cleaner image.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at glancing angles. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
