Best Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 settings for the NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 runs at roughly 69 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 70FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 69 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 69 FPS at 1080p and 65 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 58 FPS at 4K. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 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 2: Fast traversal is CPU-heavy; ray tracing adds even more CPU load.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. With CPU-heavy web-swinging traversal, upscaling frees GPU headroom effectively.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and shadows. NYC looks stunning with RT on, but it adds CPU and GPU load. Low is a good middle ground.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. Needs 10GB+ for Ultra - ease off on 8GB cards.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the sweet spot.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Glass skyscrapers make reflections very visible. High is a solid choice.
Level of DetailHighbaseline
World geometry detail at distance - partly CPU-bound during fast traversal.
Crowd DensityHighbaseline
NPC density on city streets - CPU-bound. Lower it if you hit a CPU bottleneck during traversal.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. Medium is plenty for fast traversal.
Traffic DensityHighbaseline
How many cars fill the streets - CPU-bound. Lower it if you hit a CPU bottleneck.
Hair QualityHighbaseline
Strand detail on hair and fur in close-ups. A modest cost.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps rooftops and streets sharp at angles - effectively free, use 16x.
