Best Warhammer 40,000: Darktide settings for the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) (2026)

On a NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Warhammer 40,000: Darktide runs at roughly 47 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 21FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 47 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 21 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 47 FPS at 1080p and 28 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 16 FPS at 4K. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (laptop) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 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
Supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first, especially with the screen full of enemies.
Ray Tracing (reflections / GI)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and lighting. Very heavy — turning it off is a large FPS gain on mid-range and laptop GPUs.
Shadow QualityLow+12% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is a strong, cheap step down from the top settings.
Particle / Effects QualityLow+10% FPS
Gunfire, blood and explosions — the biggest drain when a horde swarms you. Lower it to stay steady in the chaos.
World Geometry / DetailLow+8% FPS
Detail of the hive environments. Cheap to lower with little visible loss in a firefight.
Ambient OcclusionOff+5% FPS
Soft contact shadows. Subtle — safe to lower.
Post ProcessingLow+4% FPS
Bloom and lens effects. Low is a cheap, clean win.
Texture QualityExtreme-1% FPS
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps surfaces sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
