Until Dawn, the classic PS4 horror adventure title is out on PC. The RTX 3060 and 3060 Ti can play the game at smooth framerates thanks to the fantastic port that works on a wide range of hardware.

In this article, we have listed the ideal setting combinations for the last-gen 60-class video cards. You can use these recommendations to quickly get started in the game.

The Nvidia RTX 3060 is a 1080p gaming video card. It can play Until Dawn best at this resolution. The Ultra settings are a bit demanding in the game, but it looks fantastic with this option applied. We recommend setting DLSS to the Quality preset to maintain 60 FPS.

Until Dawn graphics settings for Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti
The RTX 3060 Ti is a bit more capable than its cheaper sibling. This card can play quite a few games at 1440p, however, we recommend sticking to FHD in Until Dawn. A similar set of Ultra settings with DLSS turned on works fine. However, you might choose to turn upscaling off if the loss in visual quality isn't to your liking.
The recommended combination is as follows:
Screen
- Screen mode: Fullscreen
- Resolution: 1920 x 1080
- Screen percentage: 100
- Framerate limit: Off
