Here are the optimal settings for playing No Man’s Sky on any of your RTX 40 Series GPUs at 1080p and beyond.

No Man’s Sky: Best Settings for RTX 4060, RTX 4060 Ti, RTX 4070

Gamers with an RTX 4060 can play this game comfortably with these settings at 1080p resolution. Terrain deformation, intensive mining, or engaging in dogfights with space pirates will be no problem. 4060 Ti and higher GPU power users can follow these settings, but can comfortably utilize the 1440p resolution. With the latest update, the game now brings in DLSS Transformer model support, making the image output better than the CNN model.

No Man’s Sky: Best Settings for RTX 4070 Super, RTX 4070 Ti, RTX 4070 Ti Super, RTX 4080, RTX 4080 Super, RTX 4090

From the 4070 Super onwards came incredible performance enhancements. The settings below ensure that you get a high frame rate alongside superb visual fidelity. Keep in mind that the 4070 Super requires a very capable CPU. As long as you have CPU power equal to that of the 12600K or the Ryzen 5 7600X, you are good to go.
At 4K, the 4070 Ti Super and higher GPUs can easily play the game at these settings. You can even try DLAA, and you will still get a very high framerate. You can also use RTSS to cap your frame rate and save power in the process. The in-game FPS cap also works, but RTSS is more efficient in doing so.
