Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Render resolution scaling is the biggest GPU-side lever — vital for the high, steady FPS sim racing (and VR) needs.
Shadow QualityLow+12% FPS
ACC (Unreal Engine 4) is notoriously shadow-heavy. Dropping from Epic to Medium is one of the biggest gains with little visible loss at speed.
Mirror Quality / ResolutionLow+10% FPS
How sharp and how often your mirrors render. Medium is fine for race awareness and frees up a lot of frames.
Opponent VisibilityLow+8% FPS
How many cars are drawn around you — leans on the CPU in a full pack. Lower it if the start of a race stutters.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
Effects / Smoke QualityMediumbaseline
Tyre smoke and spray. Drops most during heavy braking and in the wet — lower it if those moments dip.
Foliage QualityMediumbaseline
Trackside grass and trees. You blow past most of it — Medium is invisible at racing speed.
Anti-AliasingMediumbaseline
Smooths jagged edges — important for distant track limits and curbs. Lower a notch if you need frames.
