Upscaling — XeSSOff
The Next-Gen update adds DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A big GPU-side boost, especially with ray tracing on.
Ray Tracing (GI / Reflections / Shadows)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced global illumination and reflections — beautiful but very heavy. Turn Off for big FPS; pair with upscaling if you want it.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — cheap if it fits your VRAM. Keep it Ultra on 8GB+ cards.
NVIDIA HairWorksOffbaseline
Physically simulated hair and fur. Surprisingly costly (especially on monsters) — most players leave it Off or Geralt-only.
Foliage Visibility RangeHighbaseline
How far grass and bushes render — a real cost in the open world. High is a great trade.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks nearly identical to Ultra.
Grass DensityHighbaseline
How thick the grass is. Lowering is an easy saving in fields.
Detail LevelHighbaseline
Overall world geometry detail and draw distance.
Ambient Occlusion (HBAO+)HBAO+baseline
Contact shadows for depth. SSAO is a cheaper alternative to HBAO+.
Water QualityHighbaseline
Water detail and reflections. Modest cost.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps the ground sharp into the distance — essentially free, use 16x.
