Best Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 29FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1060 (6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 29 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 51 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 29 FPS at 4K. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Wildlands predates DLSS/FSR, but its render-scale slider is the biggest GPU lever — drop below 100% for a strong FPS gain at some sharpness cost.
Turf EffectsOff+7% FPS
Individually simulated grass blades that react to the player — a real cost. Off is a safe FPS win.
Godrays QualityMedium+7% FPS
Volumetric sun shafts through clouds and trees — notoriously the heaviest setting in Wildlands. High to Medium is a large free FPS gain.
Shadow QualityMedium+6% FPS
Shadow resolution and draw distance across the huge open world. High is a big saving over Ultra.
Ambient OcclusionOff+6% FPS
Soft contact shading. HBAO+ is the sensible middle; Ultra costs more for a subtle gain.
Terrain QualityMedium+5% FPS
Tessellation and detail of the ground and mountains. Ultra is costly for little gain over High.
Objects / Vegetation DetailMedium+4% FPS
Density and draw distance of grass, trees and world objects across Bolivia. Medium/High smooths flying and driving.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. High for 6GB cards, Ultra for 8GB+.
Anti-AliasingSMAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. SMAA is a clean, cheap default; TXAA is softer and slightly heavier.
