On a NVIDIA RTX 5060 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Marathon runs at roughly 94 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 94FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 5060 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Marathon is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs great at 1080p — about 94 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 94 FPS at 1080p and 78 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Marathon 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 94 | 94 |
| 1440p | 58 | 78 |
| 4K | 33 | 61 |

With FrameCoach's optimized balanced settings, the NVIDIA RTX 5060 averages around 94 FPS at 1080p in Marathon — up from about 94 FPS with everything on High.
At 1440p with optimized settings, the NVIDIA RTX 5060 averages roughly 78 FPS in Marathon — a smooth experience.
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.
