Best Borderlands 4 settings for the AMD RX 7900 XTX (2026)

On a AMD RX 7900 XTX (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), Borderlands 4 runs at roughly 64 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 48FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7900 XTX is a flagship 4K-class graphics card with 24GB of VRAM, and Borderlands 4 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs well at 4K — about 64 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 48 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 140 FPS at 1080p and 84 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 64 FPS at 4K. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for Borderlands 4, 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.
