Diablo 4 is a top-down ARPG game with an exceptional storyline. In terms of optimization, very few games are made like this, that not only run great with 8GB VRAM, that too at 1440p, but also, natively, maintain a 55-60FPS framerate with ray tracing enabled. Now, Diablo 4 looks stunning even without RT, but the difference in enabling RT is quite noticeable, particularly when the weather changes, such as from snow to rain. That said, here are the settings you need to adjust on your 4060 for optimal performance while playing this game.

Note: Diablo 4 is well optimized, but it’s also quite CPU-intensive. The 4060 requires pairing with a Core i5 12400F or equivalent CPU to avoid CPU bottlenecks, particularly when RT is utilized.

A few keynotes to consider:

  • Without RT, with these settings, you can expect around 75 – 80 FPS at 1440p. Add in Frame Generation, of course, and keep an eye on VRAM usage; then, FPS will easily cross the 144+ mark.
  • You will enjoy a stutter-free experience during dungeon and mob farm runs because the game’s optimization ensures smooth gameplay. If frame drops occur, you can adjust a few settings, such as Fog Quality, Ambient Occlusion, and Shader Quality.

Verdict

This concludes the recommendation for the RTX 4060 for Diablo 4. DLSS is by default off in this guide, as the level of sharpness offered by native rendering is replaceable. You now receive the new transformer-based DLSS model by default, as the game’s recent update fully integrates and utilizes it for improved performance and image quality.. Doing so will result in a noticeable FPS enhancement, but there will be a very minute softness to the visuals.
