Best The Talos Principle: Reawakened settings for the NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), The Talos Principle: Reawakened runs at roughly 78 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 59FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and The Talos Principle: Reawakened is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 78 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 59 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 78 FPS at 1080p and 62 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 41 FPS at 4K. The Talos Principle: Reawakened supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super 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. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in The Talos Principle: Reawakened at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 The Talos Principle: Reawakened: Unreal Engine 5 remaster - upscaling is basically required at 1440p and up; turn off RT reflections and lower Lumen GI first.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

A separate hardware ray-tracing option (Partial/Full) layered on top of Lumen. Heavy — Off is fine, since Lumen already handles GI and reflections.
