Best Silent Hill 2 (Remake) settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4090 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4090 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), Silent Hill 2 (Remake) runs at roughly 72 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 54FPS 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 Silent Hill 2 (Remake) 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 72 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 54 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 157 FPS at 1080p and 94 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 72 FPS at 4K. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for Silent Hill 2 (Remake), 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.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	158	157
1440p	95	94
4K	54	72

💡 Silent Hill 2 (Remake): Unreal Engine 5 — watch for traversal stutter; upscaling helps a lot.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — DLSSQuality+35% FPS

Silent Hill 2 (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS and FSR plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 traversal is demanding.

Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS

Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.

Global Illumination (Lumen)Highbaseline

Software 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.

Reflections (Lumen)Highbaseline

Reflections on wet streets - very visible in foggy Silent Hill. High is a clean trade.

Volumetric FogHighbaseline

The signature fog - heavy for the look but central to the atmosphere. High is a fair balance.

Effects QualityHighbaseline

Flashlight particles and combat effects. Lower is more readable in tense fights.

View DistanceHighbaseline

How far detail renders. Mild pop-in when lowered - the fog hides most of it.

Anti-AliasingHighbaseline

Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
