On a NVIDIA RTX 3070 (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Battlefield 2042 runs at roughly 71 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 71FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 3070 is a strong 1440p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Battlefield 2042 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 71 FPSwith 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 117 FPS at 1080p and 71 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 63 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Battlefield 2042 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 117 | 117 |
| 1440p | 71 | 71 |
| 4K | 40 | 63 |
