The NVIDIA RTX 4070 is a strong 1440p card with 12GB of VRAM, and The First Descendant is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU it averages about 80 FPS at 1440p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 81 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 135 | 134 |
| 1440p | 81 | 80 |
| 4K | 46 | 61 |
At 1080p expect around 134 FPS, at 1440p about 80 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. The First Descendant doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
