Best Avowed settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Avowed runs at roughly 60 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 61FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 11GB of VRAM, and Avowed is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 60 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 60 FPS at 1080p and 62 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 57 FPS at 4K. Avowed offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Avowed (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 is demanding.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Switches Lumen to hardware ray tracing for nicer reflections and GI. Heavy - Off is fine for high FPS.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Global Illumination QualityHighbaseline
Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Reflections on water and shiny surfaces. High is a clean trade.
Shading QualityHighbaseline
Material and lighting shading detail. High is a clean, cheap trade over Epic.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Plant and grass density in the colourful world. A real cost outdoors.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far detail renders. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Spell and combat effects. Lowering smooths flashy fights.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and colour grading. High keeps the look cheaply.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
