Upscaling — FSROff
RDR2 added DLSS and FSR. A big, easy FPS boost on this demanding open world.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface detail. Cheap if it fits your VRAM — Ultra needs a roomy card.
Water Reflection QualityHighbaseline
The single most expensive setting in RDR2 — high-quality water reflections can cost a huge chunk of FPS. Medium/High is the classic optimization.
Volumetrics QualityHighbaseline
Fog, clouds and god-rays. Very heavy at Ultra for a subtle gain — a top FPS saving.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution. High is a strong value pick over Ultra.
Tree Quality / Grass DetailHighbaseline
Foliage density and draw distance — heavy in forests and fields, and the biggest hit to the game’s natural beauty when lowered.
Global Illumination QualityHighbaseline
Bounced ambient lighting. Moderately heavy; Medium/High is fine.
Far Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadows far from the camera. Cheap to lower with little visible difference.
Water Physics QualityHalfbaseline
Simulated water — the slider tanks FPS near Full. Keep it around Half unless you have headroom to spare.
Screen Space Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Low is a cheap, good-looking middle ground.
Anti-Aliasing (TAA)Highbaseline
RDR2’s TAA cleans up shimmer but softens the image at higher settings. Medium is a good balance.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp into the distance — essentially free, use 16x.
