The Nvidia RTX 4060 is the latest in the lineup of budget 1080p gaming graphics cards from Team Green. It is built to play the latest games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (MW3). Although the initial promise was no-compromises 1080p gaming, the GPU falls short in games that don't support Nvidia's DLSS 3 upscaling technology and frame generation. The new Call of Duty installment is one such title.
Hence, gamers will have to rely on cranking down the settings for a decent experience. Like any other Call of Duty title, the new Modern Warfare bundles dozens of settings that can make manually going through them overwhelming for some. To help solve this issue, we will list the ideal graphics options combination for the 60-class GPU in this article.
Best Modern Warfare 3 (MW3) graphics settings for Nvidia RTX 4060
The Ada Lovelace architecture powers the RTX 4060, but it isn't a massive step up from the last generation. On top of that, it has a limited VRAM buffer of 8 GB, down from 12 GB on the 3060.
