Braving the BTs in Hideo Kojima’s highly anticipated sequel requires serious pixel-pushing power. If you are exploring the haunted landscapes of Death Stranding 2, you need buttery-smooth framerates... especially when dodging those terrifying tar creatures. Today we are looking at the RTX 4070 Super Death Stranding 2 at 1080p performance. Let us find out if this graphics card delivers the ultimate cinematic experience for South African gamers.

The Raw FPS Benchmark 🚀

The Decima Engine is notoriously beautiful but incredibly demanding. At 1080p, the RTX 4070 Super absolutely flexes its graphical muscles. In our testing, running native 1080p with maximum graphical settings yields an incredibly stable 110 to 130 FPS. Even during heavy combat sequences with particle effects filling the screen, the 1% lows rarely dip below 90 FPS.

This means you get a flawless, stutter-free journey across the wasteland. If your current rig is struggling to keep up with these demanding environments, it might be time to browse the latest graphics cards to give your system a fighting chance.

Finding the Optimal Settings ✨

You do not need to sacrifice visual fidelity to maintain high framerates. To get the absolute best RTX 4070 Super Death Stranding 2 at 1080p experience, we recommend leaving textures and model quality on 'Ultra'.

TIP

Optimal Settings Pro Tip 🔧

Turn down Volumetric Fog and Screen Space Reflections to 'High' instead of 'Ultra'. You will barely notice the visual difference, but you will instantly gain a solid 10 to 15 percent FPS boost during heavy weather sequences.

For gamers building a completely new setup from scratch, pairing this GPU with a solid CPU is vital. You can explore some of the best gaming PC deals to ensure your processor does not bottleneck your shiny new hardware.

DLSS 3 and Frame Generation Magic

Nvidia's DLSS 3 is where the real performance magic happens. While the RTX 4070 Super handles native 1080p effortlessly, enabling DLSS Quality mode pushes framerates well past the 144Hz mark. This is perfect for high-refresh-rate monitors. Frame generation technology ensures your gameplay remains incredibly fluid.

If you prefer a plug-and-play solution without the hassle of building, grabbing one of our pre-built PC deals ensures you get this frame-generation tech straight out of the box. You will not have to worry about cable management or BIOS updates.

Alternatively, if you are a gamer on the move... perhaps dodging loadshedding schedules by heading to a friend's house... modern gaming laptops equipped with RTX 40-series chips offer incredible portable performance. You can optimise your battery life while still enjoying stunning colour accuracy on the go.
