Best God of War Ragnarök settings for the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), God of War Ragnarök runs at roughly 106 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 107FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and God of War Ragnarök is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs great at 1080p — about 106 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 106 FPS at 1080p and 64 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. God of War Ragnarök supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2080 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. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSOff
God of War Ragnarok supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A well-optimised port but demanding at 4K - upscaling is the biggest single gain.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced shadows and reflections - prettier but costs around 15-25 percent FPS. Keep Off unless you have headroom.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. Cheap if it fits your VRAM - keep it High on 8GB+ cards.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the sweet spot - Ultra adds little for a real cost.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Surface and water reflections. Moderate cost; High is fine for most scenes.
Atmospherics QualityHighbaseline
Fog, mist and god-rays. A solid FPS saving with little visible loss.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Medium is plenty for gameplay clarity.
Model QualityHighbaseline
Character and world geometry detail. High looks great without the Ultra cost.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps angled surfaces sharp - effectively free, use 16x.
Anti-AliasingMediumbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
Depth of Field / Motion BlurOnbaseline
Cinematic post-processing bundle. Nearly free; set to taste.
