Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Warframe (Evolution Engine) supports DLSS, FSR and its own TAA upscaler. Helpful at 4K, though the game is light overall.
Particle System QualityLow+9% FPS
Ability and weapon effects - the heaviest setting given how many abilities fly around. Medium smooths big fights.
Volumetric LightingOff+7% FPS
Atmospheric light shafts and fog. A solid, low-risk saving when lowered.
Shadow QualityLow+6% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. Medium is a clean trade.
Local ReflectionsOff+5% FPS
Screen-space reflections on shiny floors. A small saving when off.
BloomOff+4% FPS
Glow around bright lights and effects. Cheap; set to taste.
Depth of FieldOff+3% FPS
Background blur in cutscenes. A tiny saving - off is fine.
Anti-AliasingOff+3% FPS
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps floors and distant surfaces sharp - essentially free, use 16x.
Texture MemoryHighbaseline
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
