Best The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered settings for the NVIDIA RTX 4090 (2026)

On a NVIDIA RTX 4090 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered runs at roughly 62 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 62FPS 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 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered 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 62 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 152 FPS at 1080p and 109 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 62 FPS at 4K. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered 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 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, 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.

💡 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered: UE5 rendering over the original engine - prone to traversal stutter; upscaling helps a lot.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSOff
Oblivion Remastered (Unreal Engine 5 rendering) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Basically required for a smooth experience.
Hardware Lumen (Ray Tracing)Offsaves FPS
Switches Lumen lighting from software to hardware ray tracing - nicer reflections but a big cost. Keep Off for high FPS.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
Global IlluminationHighbaseline
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest non-RT setting. High over Ultra frees real FPS.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Grass and tree density across Cyrodiil - a real cost in the open wilderness.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far detail renders - partly CPU-bound. Lower it if towns stutter.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Magic and combat effects. Lowering smooths busy fights.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom and depth of field. Cheap; set to taste.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps things clean cheaply.
