Mortal Kombat 1 PC Benchmark

Testing the Mortal Kombat 1 PC Benchmark to see how well it runs on newer and older Gaming PCs using an RTX 4070 and a GTX 1060 6GB.

Mortal Kombat 1 is a fighting game published by Warner Bros. Studios and developed by NetherRealm Studios. This is their 12th game in the series, and the story is a sequel to the previous Mortal Kombat 11 game. The game is available on all the current gaming platforms like the Playstation 5, Nintendo Switch, Windows, Xbox X and S.

The game has been a hit amongst the players, bringing in many of the older and newer fan favourites. These features are paired with beautiful graphics, and it can be a real treat to your eyes if you crank up the graphics settings as high as possible. But to do that, you need a modern high-end gaming system because the graphics packs a punch.

So, if you are confused about the game running properly on your system, we have run a Mortal Kombat 1 benchmark using the RTX 4070. We built a similar machine with the older GTX 1060 Graphics card, and we will show you how much of a difference you can expect.
