How the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 measures up
| Requirement | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 | Minimum | Recommended | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU performance score | 9 | 2 | 2 | Recommended |

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 180 FPS on high.
At 4K
Around 105 FPS on high — genuinely viable.
Upscaling
No Man's Sky supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports FSR — Quality mode is worth 25–40% more frames. Compare upscalers.

Frequently asked questions
Can the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 run No Man's Sky?
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 falls below the minimum requirement for No Man's Sky. Expect it to run poorly or refuse to launch.
What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 291 FPS at 1080p, 180 FPS at 1440p and 105 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.
