Best GPU Under ¥100000 (2026) — Japan

$800 marks the entry into genuinely strong 4K gaming — native or lightly-upscaled 4K at high settings in most titles, with plenty of headroom left for 1440p at maximum settings and high refresh rates.

Best for 4K gaming at high settings, or maxed-out 1440p at very high refresh rates for competitive and single-player titles alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an $800 GPU for 4K, or can I spend less?

You can get playable 4K well below $800 with upscaling, but $800 is where native or lightly-upscaled 4K at high settings becomes consistent across most current titles.

Is this tier worth it for content creation, not just gaming?

Yes — cards in this range typically have enough VRAM and encode/decode throughput for comfortable video editing and rendering alongside gaming, though dedicated workstation cards suit heavier professional workloads better.

How much does ray tracing cost at this tier?

Full ray tracing (not just reflections/shadows) is playable at 1440p/4K with upscaling in most current titles at this performance level.
