The NVIDIA RTX 4060 is a mainstream 1080p card with 8GB of VRAM, and The First Descendant is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU it averages about 89 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 90 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 90 | 89 |
| 1440p | 54 | 73 |
| 4K | 31 | 61 |
At 1080p expect around 89 FPS, at 1440p about 73 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 First Descendant doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
