For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the medium preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.
At 1440p
Around 33 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 19 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
Upscaling
Satisfactory supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports DLSS — Quality mode is the best first change you can make. Compare upscalers.

What settings should I use?
Start at the medium 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.
