The NVIDIA RTX 3070 is a strong 1440p card with 8GB of VRAM, and The Last of Us Part I is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU it averages about 70 FPS at 1440p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 70 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 117 | 115 |
| 1440p | 70 | 70 |
| 4K | 40 | 61 |
At 1080p expect around 115 FPS, at 1440p about 70 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The Last of Us Part I doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
