Best Dying Light settings for the NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti (laptop, 4GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dying Light runs at roughly 65 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 48FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Dying Light is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 65 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 48 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 65 FPS at 1080p and 60 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 37 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	48	65
1440p	29	60
4K	16	37

💡 Dying Light: The original Dying Light - View Distance is the biggest lever in the open world.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — DLSSQuality+35% FPS

The original Dying Light has no DLSS, but the render-resolution slider is the biggest GPU lever. (Above 100% it supersamples and costs FPS.)

View DistanceHighbaseline

How far the open world renders — the heaviest setting and partly CPU-bound. High avoids most pop-in for less than Max.

Shadow Map SizeHighbaseline

Shadow map resolution and range. Medium is a strong step down from High.

Foliage QualityHighbaseline

Density of grass and plants — partly a CPU cost. Medium is a safe trim.

Ambient OcclusionOnbaseline

Soft contact shading (with an NVIDIA HBAO+ option). Cheap — leave it on unless you need the frames.

Anti-AliasingHighbaseline

Edge smoothing. Cheap; drop it a notch if you need frames in the busy streets.

Texture QualityHighbaseline

Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
