✅ Yes

~78 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA GTX 980 is a entry-level card with 4GB of VRAM, and Resident Evil Village is a moderately demanding game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 78 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 79 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	79	78
1440p	48	63
4K	27	58

At 1080p expect around 78 FPS, at 1440p about 63 FPS, and at 4K roughly 58 FPS with optimized settings. Resident Evil Village doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
