Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. With the CPU-heavy destruction engine, upscaling is the most effective relief.
Global IlluminationLow+12% FPS
Bounced lighting - the heaviest non-RT setting. Medium frees real frames.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution. Medium/High is the standard competitive pick.
