Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
War Thunder supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest FPS gain — turn it on first, especially at 1440p and up.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range over large maps. High is a strong, good-looking step down from Ultra.
Grass / Forest DensityOff+9% FPS
Ground cover across the battlefield. Costly, and lower settings also stop foliage hiding tanks at range.
Effects Quality (smoke / fire)Low+8% FPS
Explosions and smoke — and in War Thunder, smoke tanks FPS in busy fights. Lowering it keeps you steady when it counts.
Cloud QualityLow+7% FPS
Volumetric cloud detail — matters most in air battles. A cheap, near-invisible saving on the ground.
Water / Reflection QualityLow+6% FPS
Reflections on water and vehicles. Safe to lower with little visible loss in combat.
Post FX / SSAOLow+4% FPS
Bloom and contact shadows. Low is a cheap, clean win.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine at High on most cards.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
