Best The Last of Us Part II Remastered settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4070 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4070 (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), The Last of Us Part II Remastered runs at roughly 75 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 76FPS 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 The Last of Us Part II Remastered is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs well at 1440p — about 75 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 125 FPS at 1080p and 75 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 66 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	127	125
1440p	76	75
4K	43	66

💡 The Last of Us Part II Remastered: VRAM-hungry - on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — DLSSOff

Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first; Quality mode is very close to native in this game.

Texture QualityUltra-2% FPS

Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. This game is VRAM-hungry; on 8GB cards keep textures at High, not Ultra.

Shadow QualityHighbaseline

Shadow resolution and draw distance. High looks almost identical to Ultra while running noticeably faster.

Screen Space ReflectionsHighbaseline

Reflections on water and wet surfaces. One of the first things to lower — the drop is hard to spot in motion.

Bounced LightingHighbaseline

Indirect bounce lighting that defines the mood - one of the heaviest settings (turning it off can gain ~10%). High is a clean trade.

Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline

Soft contact shadows that ground objects and characters. Medium is a fine, subtle saving.

Dynamic Objects QualityHighbaseline

Geometry detail of weapons and interactive objects by distance. Lowering is a small, safe gain.

Level of Detail (Geometry)Highbaseline

How far full-detail models render before simplifying. Lowering causes mild pop-in on distant scenery.

Motion Blur / Depth of FieldOnbaseline

Pure preference and barely touches FPS — many players switch these off for a cleaner image.

Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline

Keeps ground textures sharp at glancing angles. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
