Best Palworld settings for the NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU), Palworld runs at roughly 103 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 104FPS 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 Palworld is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-12900F, it runs great at 1440p — about 103 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 171 FPS at 1080p and 103 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.

Upscaling — DLSSOff
Palworld (Unreal Engine 5) supports FSR and DLSS. The biggest single FPS lever.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
ShadowsHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range - the heaviest setting outdoors. High is the value pick.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Tree and plant density across the open world. A real cost outdoors.
Grass DetailHighbaseline
Ground grass density. Lower it for a cheap gain and clearer sightlines.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far the world renders at full detail. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Combat and capture effects. Lowering smooths busy base fights.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Contact shadows in corners and under foliage. Low is a cheap trade.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, motion blur and depth of field. Low is a cheap, clean win.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing (TAA). Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
