Best Horizon Forbidden West settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti Super (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti Super (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU), Horizon Forbidden West runs at roughly 60 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 61FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti Super is a high-end graphics card with 16GB of VRAM, and Horizon Forbidden West is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-12900F, it runs well at 4K — about 60 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 168 FPS at 1080p and 106 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 60 FPS at 4K. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Horizon Forbidden West, so textures can stay maxed. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

How far full-detail geometry renders. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.
