On a NVIDIA RTX 4070 (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), War Thunder runs at roughly 125 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 125FPS 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 War Thunder is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it flies at 1440p — about 125 FPSwith 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 158 FPS at 1080p and 125 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 71 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 158 | 158 |
| 1440p | 125 | 125 |
| 4K | 71 | 71 |
