Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti run Planet Coaster?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti clears the minimum bar for Planet Coaster but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 92 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the ultra preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.

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
Around 57 FPS on high. Playable, but drop to medium or enable upscaling for a stable 60.
At 4K
Around 33 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
VRAM headroom
At 3GB you are under the 4GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.
