On a NVIDIA RTX 4070 (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Marathon runs at roughly 78 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 80FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 4070 is a strong 1440p graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and Marathon is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 78 FPSwith 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 117 FPS at 1080p and 78 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 69 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 117 | 117 |
| 1440p | 80 | 78 |
| 4K | 45 | 69 |

Use a balanced preset, keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Shadow Quality and View Distance down a notch. The full per-setting breakdown is above.
FPS figures are estimates from a generalized model (hardware tier × game load × per-setting weights), not live benchmarks — real performance varies by scene, drivers and game version.
