Can a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 run V Rising?

Yes — with compromises

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 clears the minimum bar for V Rising but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 29 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the low preset.

Recommended settings

For 60 FPS at 1080p

Use the low preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.

At 1440p

Around 18 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.

At 4K

Around 10 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.

VRAM headroom

At 2GB you are under the 8GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.
