Can the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super run Control? (2026)

Yes
~96 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super is a mainstream 1080p card with 8GB of VRAM, and Control is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU it averages about 96 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 96 FPS with everything on High.

💡 Control: A flagship ray-tracing showcase - RT is gorgeous but very heavy; pair it with DLSS.

At 1080p expect around 96 FPS, at 1440p about 79 FPS, and at 4K roughly 63 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. Control doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
