Estimated average fps by resolution and preset.
Our estimate puts the GeForce RTX 3080 at about 82 fps on High at 1080p in ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE, which means it runs well. On Low the same card manages about 155 fps, and on Ultra about 59.
The graphics card is the limit here, so lowering the resolution or the quality preset is what raises your frame rate.
For a steady 60 fps, our estimate says: 1080p: High (about 82 fps); 1440p: Medium (about 82 fps); 4K: Low (about 62 fps).
ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE lists 16 GB of RAM (recommending 32 GB) and a processor of the Intel Core i7-12700K class. Our estimate assumes a processor that does not limit the GeForce RTX 3080, so enter yours in the checker above if it is older than that.
For reference, the next card up in our list, the GeForce RTX 5070, is estimated at 83 fps on High at 1080p, so you have room to raise settings or resolution on the GeForce RTX 3080.
Our estimate is about 82 fps on High at 1080p, and about 155 fps on Low. Verdict: Yes, runs well.
At 1080p, High holds about 82 fps. At 1440p, Medium holds 60 fps. Even 4K is possible on Low.
ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE lists 16 GB as its minimum and recommends 32 GB. The graphics card does not change that: with less memory than the minimum the game can stutter or fail to start whatever card you have.
