🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSBalanced+55% FPS
Escape from Tarkov added DLSS and FSR. A free FPS boost - but Tarkov is heavily CPU-bound, so don't expect it to fix low frames on busy maps like Streets.
Shadows QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. Many competitive players run Low for both FPS and visibility.
Overall VisibilityLow+10% FPS
How far the world renders - a real cost on open maps. Lower to see (and run) better; raising it helps spot distant players.
Object LOD QualityLow+8% FPS
Detail on distant objects - leans on the CPU. Medium keeps frametimes steady in fights.
Grass Shadows / DistanceOff+7% FPS
Grass density and its shadows. Lower it - tall grass also hides enemies, so many players reduce it.
Anti-AliasingOff+4% FPS
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean; some players prefer FXAA for a sharper image.
SSR QualityOffbaseline
Screen-space reflections on water and glass. Off is the competitive default for free frames.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness - cheap on FPS if it fits your VRAM. Tarkov likes 8GB+ on big maps.
