Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 run Halo Infinite?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 clears the minimum bar for Halo Infinite but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 55 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the medium preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.

Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the medium preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.
At 1440p
Around 34 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 20 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
