Best The Callisto Protocol settings for the AMD RX 6800 XT (2026)

On a AMD RX 6800 XT (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), The Callisto Protocol runs at roughly 72 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 73FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 6800 XT is a strong 1440p graphics card with 16GB of VRAM, and The Callisto Protocol is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 72 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 120 FPS at 1080p and 72 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 63 FPS at 4K. The Callisto Protocol supports ray tracing and the AMD RX 6800 XT can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for The Callisto Protocol, so textures can stay maxed. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 The Callisto Protocol: Prone to shader-compilation stutter - ray tracing makes it worse.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
The Callisto Protocol (Unreal Engine 4) supports DLSS and FSR. Enable it first - the game is demanding and stutter-prone.
Ray Tracing (Reflections / Shadows)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and shadows. Heavy and known to worsen the game's stutter - keep Off for smoother frames.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Screen Space ReflectionsMediumbaseline
Reflections on the prison's wet metal surfaces. Medium is plenty without ray tracing.
VolumetricsMediumbaseline
Fog and light shafts - core to the grim atmosphere but a real cost. Medium is a clean trade.
ParticlesHighbaseline
Gore and combat particle effects. Lowering smooths the brutal melee fights.
Ambient OcclusionMediumbaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium keeps the image clean cheaply.
