Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Ray-Traced ReflectionsOnbaseline
Adds ray-traced reflections on top of the RT lighting. A real cost - turn Off first if you need frames.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
TessellationNormalbaseline
Adds rounded 3D detail to surfaces and rubble. Normal is plenty.
