Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the ultra preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Comfortable — around 80 FPS on high.
At 4K
Around 47 FPS. Workable with upscaling on Performance mode.
Upscaling
Hogwarts Legacy supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports DLSS — Quality mode is the best first change you can make. Compare upscalers.
VRAM headroom
At 12GB you are under the 16GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 129 FPS at 1080p, 80 FPS at 1440p and 47 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the ultra preset at 1080p. Then enable upscaling on Quality mode before lowering anything further.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
