Best Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales settings for the NVIDIA GTX 960M (laptop, 4GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 960M (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales runs at roughly 29 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 14FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 960M (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 29 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 14 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 29 FPS at 1080p and 17 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 10 FPS at 4K. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 960M (laptop, 4GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales 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.

💡 Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales: Fast traversal is CPU-heavy; ray-traced reflections add more load - lower RT and Traffic Density first.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Miles Morales supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest free FPS boost — enable it first, especially with ray tracing on.
Ray-Traced ReflectionsOffsaves FPS
RT reflections on the glass towers look stunning but are heavy. Off keeps FPS high; Low/Medium is a good compromise on RTX cards.
Traffic & Crowd DensityLow+10% FPS
How many cars and pedestrians fill the city — a CPU cost that hits hardest while swinging fast. Medium smooths traversal.
Shadow QualityLow+9% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is a strong step down from Very High.
Level of Detail (Geometry)Low+8% FPS
How detailed distant buildings stay — also a CPU cost during fast traversal. High is plenty.
Ambient OcclusionOff+6% FPS
Soft contact shading. SSAO is the cheap option; HBAO+ looks better for a small cost.
Texture QualityVery High-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps street and building textures sharp at angles. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
