Best Marvel Rivals settings for the NVIDIA RTX 2080 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 2080 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Marvel Rivals runs at roughly 97 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 98FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 2080 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Marvel Rivals is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs great at 1080p — about 97 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 97 FPS at 1080p and 79 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. Marvel Rivals supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2080 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.

Upscaling — DLSSOff
Supports DLSS (RTX), FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. The biggest, easiest FPS lever — most players run it for the frames.
Texture DetailUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — cheap if it fits your VRAM. High on 8GB cards, Ultra for 12GB+.
Global IlluminationSSGI Low0% FPS
Bounced lighting. SSGI is the cheap screen-space mode; Lumen is software ray tracing and by far the heaviest setting. Competitive players keep this on SSGI Low for high refresh.
Reflection QualityScreen Spacebaseline
Surface reflections. Screen Space is cheap and plenty; Lumen reflections are heavy and rarely noticed mid-fight.
Model DetailHighbaseline
Character and hero model detail. Modest cost; High looks best.
