NBA 2K26 benchmark on RTX 4060: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
NBA 2K26 FPS with a RTX 4060 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 93FPS min 66Good | 63FPS min 55Good | 32FPS min 28Acceptable |
| High | 120FPS min 85Excellent | 82FPS min 71Good | 41FPS min 36Acceptable |
| Medium | 157FPS min 111Excellent | 108FPS min 94Good | 54FPS min 48Acceptable |
| Low | 204FPS min 144Excellent | 139FPS min 121Excellent | 70FPS min 62Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 28% | balanced | GPU 49% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 4060. There is 21% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders NBA 2K26 at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 4060 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 93 | 116 | 135 | 197 |
| 1440p | 63 | 85 | 104 | 145 |
| 4K | 32 | 46 | 59 | 78 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 4060 does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the RTX 4060 has headroom to spare in NBA 2K26: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RTX 4060 Enough for NBA 2K26?
The RTX 4060 delivers 93 FPS at 1080p Ultra in NBA 2K26. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 63 FPS and at 4K 32 FPS at Ultra quality.
