Can the NVIDIA GTX 1660 run Borderlands 4? (2026)

✅ Yes

~63 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA GTX 1660 is a entry-level card with 6GB 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 63 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 28 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	28	63
1440p	17	49
4K	10	28

💡 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 63 FPS, at 1440p about 49 FPS, and at 4K roughly 28 FPS with optimized settings. With only 6GB 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.
