Best Fortnite settings for the Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) (2026)

On a Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Fortnite runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 33FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) is a handheld graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Fortnite is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 33 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 35 FPS at 4K. Fortnite offers ray tracing, but the Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Fortnite: Turn off Lumen/Nanite (the "Epic" lighting) for a big FPS jump on weaker GPUs.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Fortnite supports DLSS (RTX), FSR, XeSS and Epic’s own TSR. A big, easy FPS boost — and it pairs well with the DirectX 12 renderer.
Hardware Ray Tracing (Lumen)Offsaves FPS
Hardware-accelerated Lumen lighting/reflections. Pretty, but heavy and pointless competitively — keep it Off for high FPS.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Medium+9% FPS
Software Lumen bounce lighting — the heaviest non-RT setting in Fortnite. Competitive players set this Off (Performance mode) for a massive FPS jump.
ShadowsMedium+6% FPS
Shadow detail and range. Turning shadows Off is a classic competitive FPS boost (and arguably makes enemies easier to spot).
Reflections (Lumen)Medium+4% FPS
Reflections on water and shiny surfaces. Moderately heavy and rarely missed in a fast-paced match.
TexturesEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — cheap on FPS if it fits your VRAM. High is fine on 8GB cards; Epic for 12GB+.
Nanite Virtualized GeometryOnbaseline
Epic’s high-detail geometry system. On weaker GPUs, turning it Off (Performance mode) gains real frames at the cost of some environment detail.
EffectsHighbaseline
Explosions, storm and weapon effects. Lowering smooths out the chaotic late-game circles.
View DistanceFarbaseline
How far detail renders. Keep this at least Far/Epic competitively — you want to see distant players and builds.
FoliageHighbaseline
Grass, trees and bushes. Lower foliage gains FPS and can reduce spots for enemies to hide.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and ambient occlusion bundled together. Low is a common competitive choice for clarity and frames.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Sharpens ground textures at a distance — essentially free, leave it maxed.
Virtual Shadow MapsOnbaseline
High-detail UE5 shadows. Turning it Off (alongside Lumen) is part of the competitive Performance setup.
Motion BlurOffbaseline
Camera blur during fast movement. Most competitive players keep it Off for clarity.
