Can the NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti run The Last of Us Part I? (2026)

✅ Yes

~70 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti is a mainstream 1080p card with 11GB of VRAM, and The Last of Us Part I is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU it averages about 70 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 71 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	71	70
1440p	42	65
4K	24	53

💡 The Last of Us Part I: VRAM-hungry — on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.

At 1080p expect around 70 FPS, at 1440p about 65 FPS, and at 4K roughly 53 FPS with optimized settings. The Last of Us Part I doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
