Best Saros settings for the AMD RX 7900 XTX (2026)

On a AMD RX 7900 XTX (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), Saros runs at roughly 80 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 81FPS 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 Saros is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs well at 4K — about 80 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 235 FPS at 1080p and 141 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 80 FPS at 4K. Saros supports ray tracing and the AMD RX 7900 XTX 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 24GB of VRAM is plenty for Saros, 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.

💡 Saros: From the Returnal team - particle effects are the heaviest setting in busy bullet-hell fights.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Saros (from the Returnal team, Housemarque) supports DLSS and FSR. A free FPS boost - and this fast roguelike wants high, steady frames.
Ray-Traced ReflectionsOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections on the rain-slicked alien world. A real cost - keep Off for the high frame rates twitchy combat needs.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness, shown with a VRAM estimate. On 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Epic.
Particle QualityHighbaseline
Housemarque's signature bullet-hell particle storms - the heaviest setting in chaotic fights. High is the value pick over Epic.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks nearly identical to Epic while running faster.
Screen Space ReflectionsMediumbaseline
Reflections on wet ground when ray tracing is off. Medium is plenty.
Volumetric FogMediumbaseline
Atmospheric fog and god-rays. Medium is an easy, near-invisible win.
Ambient OcclusionSSAObaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. SSAO is cheap and good-looking.
Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
