Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Supports DLSS (RTX), FSR and XeSS. A big GPU-side boost, though Diablo IV is well optimized to begin with.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and filtering. High is a clean trade over Ultra.
Screen Space Ambient OcclusionOff+6% FPS
Soft contact shadows. Cheap; Medium is plenty for the top-down view.
Fog QualityLow+6% FPS
Volumetric fog in dungeons and the open world. A low-risk saving.
Reflection QualityLow+6% FPS
Reflections on wet floors and water. Often subtle from the isometric camera.
Clutter / Particle QualityLow+5% FPS
On-screen effects and debris. Lowering smooths busy fights with lots of mobs.
Anti-AliasingLow+5% FPS
Edge smoothing. Medium keeps the image clean cheaply.
Geometric ComplexityLow+5% FPS
Detail on environment and dungeon geometry. High over the top-down camera is plenty.
Shadow Filtering QualityLow+4% FPS
How softly shadow edges blur. Medium is a cheap, clean middle ground.
Water Simulation QualityLow+4% FPS
Ripples and flow on water surfaces. A low-risk saving from the isometric view.
DistortionOff+2% FPS
Heat-haze and magic-warp effects. Nearly free; set to taste.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Diablo IV is VRAM-hungry — Ultra textures want 10GB+. On 8GB cards, High avoids stutter.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps the ground sharp at angles — essentially free, use 16x.
