|---|
| 1080p | 6 | 18 |
| 1440p | 4 | 11 |
| 4K | 2 | 5 |
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Renders the game at a lower internal resolution, then AI-reconstructs it to your screen size. The closest thing to "free FPS" — often +30-70% for a small sharpness loss. Almost always the first thing to enable.
Ray Tracing / Path TracingOffsaves FPS
Physically accurate lighting, reflections and shadows. Gorgeous, but by far the heaviest setting in modern games — it also adds CPU load. Turn it OFF first when chasing frames; turn it on only with plenty of headroom (and ideally upscaling enabled).
Shadow QualityLow+14% FPS
Controls shadow resolution and how far shadows render. One of the best FPS-for-looks trades: Ultra→High or Medium is often invisible in motion but frees real performance.
Volumetric Lighting / FogLow+12% FPS
God-rays, light shafts and thick atmospheric fog. Expensive for the visual payoff — dropping a notch is an easy win that few people notice mid-gameplay.
Reflections (SSR)Low+10% FPS
Screen-space reflections on water, glass and shiny floors. Moderately heavy and often subtle in fast games.
View / Draw DistanceLow+9% FPS
How far detailed objects render before fading in. Heavy in open-world games and partly CPU-bound. Lowering causes visible "pop-in," so we cut this only when needed.
Anti-AliasingTAA (light)+8% FPS
Smooths jagged edges. Older MSAA modes are very expensive; modern TAA is cheap. Switching a heavy AA mode to TAA reclaims a lot with little visible cost.
Ambient OcclusionOff+7% FPS
Soft contact shadows where objects meet. Adds depth but is moderately costly; Medium is usually plenty.
Effects / ParticlesLow+6% FPS
Explosions, smoke, sparks. Cheap most of the time, but can tank FPS in chaotic moments — lowering smooths out the worst dips.
Post-Processing (Motion Blur, etc.)Low+3% FPS
Bloom, depth of field, motion blur, film grain. Cheap on FPS and mostly personal taste — many players disable motion blur for a clearer competitive image.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface detail sharpness. Costs almost no FPS as long as it fits in your GPU’s VRAM — but overflow your VRAM and you get severe stutter. We push this as high as your card’s memory safely allows.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps textures sharp at oblique angles (floors, roads stretching away). Essentially free on any modern GPU — leave it maxed at 16x.
