OFFICIAL REQUIREMENT CHECKDOOM Eternal
DOOM Eternal
× GeForce RTX 4090
How the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 compares with the minimum and recommended graphics cards that the publisher lists for DOOM Eternal.
NVIDIA · Desktop24 GBAda Lovelace
FrameScope does not include measured FPS yet. This verdict is estimated from the publisher's official requirements and published hardware specifications. How the estimate works
Estimated from official requirements: clearly above the recommended GPU
24 GB of VRAM, more than the official recommended 4 GB.
The engine matches the official GPU lines to reference models, compares their relative tier scores with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, and checks the VRAM figure. "Clearly above" means at least 1.5 times the recommended tier score. The result says where this card sits relative to the publisher's lists; it does not predict a frame rate.
| Item | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Official GPU | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti (4GB), GTX 1060 (3GB), GTX 1650 (4GB) or AMD Radeon R9 280(3GB), AMD Radeon R9 290 (4GB), RX 470 (4GB) | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB), NVIDIA GeForce 970 (4GB), AMD RX 480 (8GB) |
| Matched reference | GeForce GTX 1060 3GB, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, GeForce GTX 1650, Radeon R9 270 / 270X / 280 / 280X, Radeon RX 470 / 570, Radeon R9 290 / 290X / 390 | GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, Radeon RX 480, GeForce GTX 970 |
| VRAM stated | 3 GB | 4 GB |
| System RAM | 8 GB | 8 GB |
Resolution and settings: what the requirements do and do not tell you
- Publishers rarely state which resolution and preset their recommended specs target. Many aim at 1080p, but check the game's store page or patch notes before assuming so.
- Moving from 1080p to 1440p or 4K raises the number of pixels the GPU has to render and usually the VRAM in use, so a card that only just meets the recommendation has less room at higher resolutions.
- Upscalers (DLSS, FSR, XeSS) render at a lower internal resolution. Quality mode is the usual starting point when you want a higher output resolution.
- VRAM is above the official recommendation, so texture quality is unlikely to be the first setting you need to lower. Watch for stutter in the largest areas and adjust from there.
- Shadows, volumetric effects and ray tracing are usually the heaviest options. Lower them one step at a time and compare in the same scene.
