Can I run Alan Wake 2 with a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super?

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super already carries the 16 GB that ultra asks of Alan Wake 2. What it does not have is the core: that tier is a GeForce RTX 4090, and this card reads 38 against its 63.

Of the 8 cards that reach this same point in Alan Wake 2, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super is the slowest - index 38 is the least this game will accept for that tier among the hardware we track.

  4. ultra blocked by GPU

The weakest link is graphics card: this rig brings 38 against the 63 that Alan Wake 2 asks for at the ultra tier. Everything else in the rig is already past that line.

That readout is the best this card can do in Alan Wake 2: it assumes nothing else in the machine holds it back. Your own processor and memory can only lower it, never raise it.

The same card with three different processors

In Alan Wake 2 the processor beside a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super changes the answer, which is why a card-only verdict is not worth much here. Each row assumes 16 GB of system memory.

Ryzen 9 5900X 70 Runs well system memory

Cheapest way up one tier

graphics card: GeForce RTX 4090

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super sits at index 38 and the ultra tier starts at 63.

That is the smallest part in our catalogue that clears the ultra tier - not the fastest one, and not a price claim: we hold no price data, so "cheapest" here means "least upgrade that does the job".
