Nvidia's RTX 3090 and 3090 Ti continue to be superb graphics cards for playing the latest and greatest titles available. Although they lose to the newer RTX 4090 in terms of performance, both GPUs pack enough horsepower to play every modern AAA title at 4K with minimal sacrifices. Thus, players can expect a solid experience in Starfield on either 3090 card.

That said, since Starfield is an extremely demanding title, tweaking its settings will be necessary to ensure optimal and stable FPS. Although the tweaks are minimal, they are essential to derive a smooth experience from this game even when it's running on Nvidia's RTX 3090 or 3090 Ti.

Nvidia's RTX 3090 Ti packs more rendering prowess than the 3090, thanks to its higher core counts, faster clock speeds, and power draw. This allows gamers to crank up the settings in Starfield further without losing out on a ton of performance.

We still recommend a bit of temporal upscaling with FSR 2 for the best experience in the title.
