Performance Analysis
At 1080p high, our model places NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 near 63 FPS in Deadlock. At 1440p, that typically translates to around 47 FPS with similar quality targets. This places the card in the high tier for this title, with a playable experience profile. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 can run Deadlock reliably, but smart setting choices matter for consistency.
Deadlock is a third-person hero shooter built on Valve's Source 2 engine, featuring large maps, real-time physics, and up to 12 simultaneous players with ability-heavy characters, which pushes both CPU and GPU. The game's combination of MOBA-style lane structures and fast-paced shooter mechanics requires consistent frame delivery, making a mid-range GPU like the RTX 2080 advisable for smooth 1080p play. As the game is still in active development and beta, requirements are estimates and may increase at full release.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 supports DLSS 3 with Frame Generation in compatible titles. In games like Deadlock that support it, Frame Generation can push perceived frame rates well beyond the base estimate above — particularly useful at 1440p where the GPU is more heavily loaded.
- Use a medium/high mix and prioritize stable frame times over peak FPS spikes.
- Use selective ray tracing (shadows/reflections) and avoid ultra RT presets.
- Prioritize texture quality and reduce volumetrics/shadows first
In short, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is a playable option for Deadlock when tuned correctly.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I play Deadlock on a laptop with an integrated GPU?
- Integrated graphics are not supported. Deadlock requires at minimum a dedicated GPU equivalent to the NVIDIA GTX 960, so a discrete graphics card is necessary for playable performance.
- Is Deadlock optimized for AMD hardware?
- Deadlock runs on Valve's Source 2 engine which has broad driver support for both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. AMD cards equivalent to the RX 470 (minimum) and RX 6800 (recommended) perform comparably to their NVIDIA counterparts at the same tier.
