Can the NVIDIA GTX 1070 run Borderlands 4? (2026)

✅ Yes

~61 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA GTX 1070 is a entry-level card with 8GB of VRAM, and Borderlands 4 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 61 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 30 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	30	61
1440p	18	53
4K	10	30

💡 Borderlands 4: Unreal Engine 5 - notoriously heavy at launch; upscaling is basically required.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 61 FPS, at 1440p about 53 FPS, and at 4K roughly 30 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
