Best Doom: The Dark Ages settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Doom: The Dark Ages runs at roughly 60 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 60FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti is a strong 1440p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Doom: The Dark Ages is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 60 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 99 FPS at 1080p and 60 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Doom: The Dark Ages 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.
