What are the best Black Myth: Wukong settings for RTX 3060?

Use our Mid tier: 1080p with DLSS Quality, Frame Generation On, Medium textures/shadows/GI, all Ray Tracing Off. Expect 60+ FPS with Frame Generation enabled.

Does Black Myth: Wukong support DLSS and Ray Tracing?

Yes — DLSS, FSR, Frame Generation, and Ray Tracing/Path Tracing are all supported. However, FSR frame gen is bugged and capped at 60 FPS — use DLSS frame gen instead. RT is extremely demanding and only recommended on Ultra tier hardware.

Why is FSR Frame Generation capped at 60 FPS in Wukong?

FSR/TSR frame generation in Black Myth: Wukong has a frame pacing bug that caps output at 60 FPS. DLSS Frame Generation does not have this limitation. If you have an NVIDIA RTX card, always use DLSS over FSR.

What GPU do I need for Black Myth: Wukong?

Minimum playable: GTX 1060/RX 580 at Low settings 1080p. Comfortable 60 FPS: RTX 3060+ with DLSS and Frame Gen. 4K with RT: RTX 4080+ required. This is one of the most demanding PC games — upscaling is recommended for all tiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

UE5 traversal stutter is inherent. Mitigate by: (1) setting NVIDIA Shader Cache Size to Unlimited, (2) using a fast CPU like 7800X3D, (3) enabling DLSS instead of FSR frame generation (FSR is capped at 60 FPS). Install WukongTweak mod for sharpening fix.
