Best PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4090 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4090 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS runs at roughly 91 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 92FPS 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 PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs great at 4K — about 91 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 205 FPS at 1080p and 160 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 91 FPS at 4K. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, 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
PUBG supports DLSS and FSR. Often CPU-limited early game, so upscaling helps most at 1440p and 4K.
TexturesUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. Cheap if it fits your VRAM.
ShadowsHighbaseline
The biggest GPU cost in PUBG. Low/Medium is the standard competitive pick - shadows also carry tactical info, so do not go Very Low.
Post-ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and ambient effects. Low gives a cleaner competitive image.
EffectsHighbaseline
Smoke, fire and grenade effects. Lowering reduces visual clutter in firefights.
FoliageHighbaseline
Grass and bush density - a tactical setting. Keep at least Medium so cover is fair.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far terrain and objects render. Keep at Medium or higher for competitive spotting.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium is a good balance of clarity and performance.
SharpenOnbaseline
Sharpening filter to offset upscaler softness. Free; set to taste.
Motion BlurOffbaseline
Camera blur in motion. Nearly free; most competitive players turn it Off.
