Best Avowed settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4090 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4090 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), Avowed runs at roughly 66 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 67FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA RTX 4090 is a flagship 4K-class graphics card with 24GB of VRAM, and Avowed is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs well at 4K — about 66 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 195 FPS at 1080p and 117 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 66 FPS at 4K. Avowed supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 4090 can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for Avowed, 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.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSOff
Avowed (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 is demanding.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Switches Lumen to hardware ray tracing for nicer reflections and GI. Heavy - Off is fine for high FPS.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Global Illumination QualityHighbaseline
Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Reflection QualityHighbaseline
Reflections on water and shiny surfaces. High is a clean trade.
Shading QualityHighbaseline
Material and lighting shading detail. High is a clean, cheap trade over Epic.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Plant and grass density in the colourful world. A real cost outdoors.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far detail renders. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Spell and combat effects. Lowering smooths flashy fights.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and colour grading. High keeps the look cheaply.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
