Best Far Cry 6 settings for the NVIDIA RTX 2050 (laptop) (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 2050 (laptop) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Far Cry 6 runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 28FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 2050 (laptop) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Far Cry 6 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 28 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 40 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 23 FPS at 4K. Far Cry 6 supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2050 (laptop) can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Far Cry 6: Dunia engine - the optional HD texture pack needs 11GB+ VRAM; Volumetric Fog and ray tracing are the heaviest settings.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSBalanced+55% FPS
Far Cry 6 supports FSR. A good free FPS boost — enable it first, especially with ray tracing on.
Ray Tracing (Reflections / Shadows)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and sun shadows — heavy for a subtle gain. Turn it off first when chasing frames.
Volumetric FogLow+11% FPS
Atmospheric fog and light shafts — one of the heaviest settings here for a subtle look. Drop it a notch first.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is a strong step down from Ultra.
Geometry / Environment DetailLow+8% FPS
How detailed distant terrain and objects stay. High avoids pop-in cheaply.
VegetationMedium+3% FPS
Density of Yara’s jungle plants and grass. Medium/High is a solid saving in dense areas.
WaterMedium+2% FPS
Water surface detail and reflections. Medium is plenty on the island coasts.
Anti-AliasingSMAA+2% FPS
Edge smoothing. TAA is the clean default; SMAA is sharper but shimmers more.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. The optional HD texture pack needs 11GB+ VRAM — on 8GB cards keep it at High, not Ultra.
