Best War Thunder settings for the AMD RX 7900 XTX (2026)

On a AMD RX 7900 XTX (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), War Thunder runs at roughly 110 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 110FPS 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 War Thunder is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs great at 4K — about 110 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 205 FPS at 1080p and 194 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 110 FPS at 4K. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for War Thunder, 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.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
War Thunder supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest FPS gain — turn it on first, especially at 1440p and up.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range over large maps. High is a strong, good-looking step down from Ultra.
Grass RangeMediumbaseline
Density and render distance of grass. Costly, and lower settings also stop foliage hiding tanks at range.
Particle DensityHighbaseline
Explosion embers, sparks and smoke — and in War Thunder, smoke tanks FPS in busy fights. Lowering it keeps you steady when it counts.
Cloud QualityHighbaseline
Volumetric cloud detail — matters most in air battles. A cheap, near-invisible saving on the ground.
Water QualityHighbaseline
Water detail and the quality of reflections on its surface. Safe to lower with little visible loss in combat.
SSAOHighbaseline
Screen-space ambient occlusion — soft contact shadows (also enables small-object shadows). Low is a cheap, clean win.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine at High on most cards.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
