Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the high preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Around 37 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 22 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
Upscaling
Minecraft: Java Edition supports DLSS. Your card does not support the upscalers this game offers. Compare upscalers.

Start at the high 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 is unusually CPU-heavy, so it matters more than usual here.
