Best Resident Evil Requiem settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1080 (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1080 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Resident Evil Requiem runs at roughly 64 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 65FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1080 is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Resident Evil Requiem is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 64 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 64 FPS at 1080p and 62 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 50 FPS at 4K. Resident Evil Requiem offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1080 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.

💡 Resident Evil Requiem: Capcom RE Engine (RE9) - VRAM-hungry; on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Max.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Resident Evil Requiem runs on Capcom's RE Engine with DLSS and FSR. A near-free FPS boost - enable it first, especially with ray tracing.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and lighting in the dark, detailed interiors. The single heaviest setting - keep Off for high FPS or pair with upscaling.
Texture QualityMax-1% FPS
RE Engine textures are VRAM-hungry and the menu shows an estimate. On 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Max.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick over Max.
Mesh QualityHighbaseline
Geometry detail on characters and environments. High looks great; Medium for frames.
Volumetric LightingMediumbaseline
Atmospheric fog and light shafts - a real cost in the gloomy corridors. Medium is a clean trade.
Screen Space ReflectionsOnbaseline
Reflections on wet floors when ray tracing is off. A small saving when disabled.
Ambient OcclusionSSAObaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. SSAO is a cheap, good-looking option.
Subsurface ScatteringOnbaseline
Realistic light through skin. Cheap; leave On for the close-up horror.
Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
