Can the NVIDIA GTX 1650 Super run The Last of Us Part I? (2026)

✅ Yes

~63 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA GTX 1650 Super is a entry-level card with 4GB of VRAM, and The Last of Us Part I is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 63 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 34 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	34	63
1440p	20	45
4K	11	25

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

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

At 1080p expect around 63 FPS, at 1440p about 45 FPS, and at 4K roughly 25 FPS with optimized settings. With only 4GB 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.
