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 77 FPS on high.

At 4K

Around 45 FPS. Workable with upscaling on Performance mode.

Upscaling

Rust supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports DLSS — Quality mode is the best first change you can make. Compare upscalers.

Frequently asked questions

Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti run Rust?

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti handles Rust comfortably — roughly 124 FPS at 1080p and 77 FPS at 1440p on high settings.

What FPS will I get?

On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 124 FPS at 1080p, 77 FPS at 1440p and 45 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 is unusually CPU-heavy, so it matters more than usual here.
