Method: a game's demand tier maps to a “GPU index needed for ~60 FPS at 1080p”; each GPU's relative index produces an estimate via a diminishing-returns curve, then scaled for resolution. Source: TechPowerUp GPU database (relative performance), 2026-08-29.

General tuning rules: drop Shadows, Reflection Quality andVolumetric Fog first (biggest GPU savings, low visual cost); use Render Scale / Resolution Scaling before lowering geometry; enable DLSS/FSR 3 on supported titles; cap FPS to your monitor's refresh rate to smooth frame pacing.

About Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the third entry in the franchise and takes part as a prequel to the original Deus Ex. To save his life, Adam Jensen, a former SWAT officer must fill his body with augmentations. Humanity has battled any threat to it and now live in a cyberpunk world of future. When a new form of augmentations must be revealed, Sarif Industries is attacked by the group called the Tyrants. When Adam tries to save the facility, group leader Namir heavily wounds Jensen and kills Megan Reed. David Sarif saves Adam's life, and he places augmentations in his body making him a supernatural human being, Jensen must investigate the problem of extremists in the modern world.

One of the key features of the game is a flexible storyline. Based on your actions, the game will actually react to it by hiding some subplots or changing the main plot a little depending on your subject choices. The gameplay on its own is a stealth shooter with a big using implemented use of augmentations and experience system in order to level up your abilities.

How the Deus Ex: Human Revolution optimization card & FPS estimate are computed

Each game is scored on a 0–9 demand tier from its published PC requirements (and a year/genre fallback when requirements are absent). The FPS estimate compares your selected GPU's relative-performance index against the tier's required index using a diminishing-returns curve, then scales for resolution. The settings card maps the demand tier and your hardware to a starting preset, an FPS band and an upscaler recommendation. All outputs are planning guides — verify in-game with the built-in benchmark when available.
