Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 run The Evil Within?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 clears the minimum bar for The Evil Within but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 67 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the high preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.

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 42 FPS on high. Playable, but drop to medium or enable upscaling for a stable 60.
At 4K
Around 24 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
VRAM headroom
At 2GB you are under the 4GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 67 FPS at 1080p, 42 FPS at 1440p and 24 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the high preset at 1080p.
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.
