Best God of War (2018) settings for the NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU), God of War (2018) runs at roughly 137 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 138FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti is a high-end graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and God of War (2018) is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-12900F, it flies at 1440p — about 137 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 227 FPS at 1080p and 137 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 78 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Shadow QualityOriginalbaseline
Shadow resolution and range - one of the heavier settings. 'Original' (the PS4 look) or High is the value pick.

Reflections on water, ice and metal. High is a clean trade over Ultra.
Ambient OcclusionOriginalbaseline
Soft contact shadows for depth. Original/High is plenty.
Atmospherics QualityOriginalbaseline
Volumetric fog and god rays across the Nine Realms. High is a clean trade.
Model QualityOriginalbaseline
Geometry detail on Kratos and the world. High looks great; lower for frames.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps the ground sharp into the distance - essentially free, use 16x.
