You can usually forget about CPU requirements as you scale up to 4K, but not in Darktide. The ragdoll physics spread across immense hordes of enemies require a lot of parallel CPU processing That means the more cores you have, the better. That leads me to believe that Fatshark’s expected fps values are a bit optimistic - the RTX 4090 is somewhere around 35% faster than the RTX 4080 at 4K. I played the game on an RTX 4090 and saw about 110 fps in-game with DLSS Frame Generation turned on and DLSS set to its Automatic mode. A big reason why is DLSS Frame Generation, which is absolutely necessary to get the game running at 100-plus frames per second (fps) with ray tracing turned up. You don’t need that to run the game, but that’s the GPU that developer Fatshark recommends going with if you want to max out all of the settings at 4K.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide system requirementsĪs far as I’m aware, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is the first game that recommends an Nvidia RTX 4080 in its system requirements.
