Quick Answer

For smooth Zenless Zone Zero at 1440p ultrawide, an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT (about R7,000-R10,000 in SA) is the comfortable pick, holding 70-110 fps at high settings. Zenless Zone Zero is a stylised, well-optimised title, so you don't need a flagship; a RTX 4060 / RX 7600 (R5,500-R7,000) still manages 55-75 fps with a couple of settings trimmed. Pair with DLSS or FSR for extra headroom.

How demanding is Zenless Zone Zero at 1440p ultrawide?

Zenless Zone Zero is a stylised, efficiently built game, far lighter than a heavy AAA title, so it doesn't need a top-end GPU even at 1440p ultrawide. The main load comes from resolution and crowd-dense scenes, not raw graphical complexity. An RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT drives it smoothly at high settings, and turning on DLSS Quality (or FSR) lifts frame rates further with almost no visible loss, which is the easiest way to add headroom on a mid-range card.

GPU picks by budget at Evetech

Value: a RTX 4060 / RX 7600 (R5,500-R7,000) handles Zenless Zone Zero at 1440p ultrawide with 55-75 fps once you trim shadows or volumetric effects and enable upscaling. Sweet spot: an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT (R7,000-R10,000) gives a comfortable 70-110 fps at high settings for a steady, high-refresh feel. Above that, a flagger card is overkill for this title; the money is better spent on a faster monitor or more system RAM. All are stocked locally, so check the current price band on each product page.

Building around the GPU for SA gamers

Pair the GPU with a Ryzen 5 7600 or Core i5 (these gacha and indie titles are not CPU-heavy), 16-32GB of DDR5, and a fast NVMe so areas load quickly. A 1440p ultrawide or 4K high-refresh monitor is the real luxury here, since the game runs well enough to feed it. Enable DLSS/FSR for the smoothest result, and you'll have plenty of headroom for other titles in your library on the same RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT.
