Recommended settings
Sun Shadow DetailLow+10% FPS
The main shadow setting and a real GPU cost — Low/Medium is the standard competitive pick.
Anti-AliasingNone+6% FPS
TSAA smooths edges cheaply. Some competitive players run None for maximum clarity and a few extra frames.
Spot Shadow DetailDisabled+6% FPS
Extra dynamic shadows. Disabling is a common FPS boost with little gameplay downside.
Volumetric LightingDisabled+5% FPS
God-rays and light shafts. Disabling gains frames in smoky, lit areas.
Ambient Occlusion QualityDisabled+5% FPS
Soft contact shadows. Cheap to lower; many pros disable it.
Sun Shadow CoverageLow+5% FPS
How wide an area gets sun shadows. Low is a common competitive saving.
Model DetailLow+4% FPS
Character and weapon geometry detail. Modest cost; High looks best, Medium for frames.
Effects DetailLow+4% FPS
Explosions and ability effects. Lowering smooths chaotic final rings.
Dynamic Spot ShadowsDisabled+4% FPS
Moving shadows from spot lights. Disabling frees a few frames indoors.
RagdollsLow+2% FPS
Death-body physics detail. Nearly free; set to taste.
Texture Streaming BudgetInsane-1% FPS
Texture sharpness, tied directly to your VRAM. "Insane" needs 8GB+ — match it to your card to avoid stutter.
Texture Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps surfaces sharp at angles — effectively free, use 16x.
