Best Escape from Tarkov settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4070 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4070 (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Escape from Tarkov runs at roughly 80 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 80FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 4070 is a strong 1440p graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and Escape from Tarkov is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 80 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 117 FPS at 1080p and 80 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 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	117	117
1440p	80	80
4K	45	61

💡 Escape from Tarkov: Heavily CPU-bound - maps like Streets can bottleneck even strong CPUs.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — DLSSOff

Escape from Tarkov added DLSS and FSR. A free FPS boost - but Tarkov is heavily CPU-bound, so don't expect it to fix low frames on busy maps like Streets.

Shadows QualityMediumbaseline

Shadow resolution and range. Many competitive players run Low for both FPS and visibility.

Overall VisibilityMediumbaseline

How far the world renders - a real cost on open maps. Lower to see (and run) better; raising it helps spot distant players.

Object LOD QualityMediumbaseline

Detail on distant objects - leans on the CPU. Medium keeps frametimes steady in fights.

Grass Shadows / DistanceLowbaseline

Grass density and its shadows. Lower it - tall grass also hides enemies, so many players reduce it.

SSR QualityOffbaseline

Screen-space reflections on water and glass. Off is the competitive default for free frames.

Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline

Edge smoothing. TAA is clean; some players prefer FXAA for a sharper image.

Texture QualityHighbaseline

Surface sharpness - cheap on FPS if it fits your VRAM. Tarkov likes 8GB+ on big maps.
