On a NVIDIA GTX 1660 Super (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Silent Hill 2 (Remake) runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 31FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1660 Super is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Silent Hill 2 (Remake) is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 31 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 48 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 27 FPS at 4K. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Silent Hill 2 (Remake) 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
Silent Hill 2 (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS and FSR plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 traversal is demanding.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Medium+6% FPS
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityMedium+5% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Reflections (Lumen)Medium+4% FPS
Reflections on wet streets - very visible in foggy Silent Hill. High is a clean trade.
Volumetric FogMedium+3% FPS
The signature fog - heavy for the look but central to the atmosphere. High is a fair balance.
Effects QualityMedium+3% FPS
Flashlight particles and combat effects. Lower is more readable in tense fights.
View DistanceMedium+2% FPS
How far detail renders. Mild pop-in when lowered - the fog hides most of it.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
