Best Broken Arrow settings for the RTX 4080 Laptop (2026)

On a RTX 4080 Laptop (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Broken Arrow runs at roughly 90 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 91FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The RTX 4080 Laptop is a strong 1440p graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and Broken Arrow is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it runs great at 1440p — about 90 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 149 FPS at 1080p and 90 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 69 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Broken Arrow: Large-scale modern-warfare RTS - big battles are partly CPU-bound; lower Unit Detail and Effects first.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — DLSSOff
Broken Arrow supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest free FPS boost — enable it first, especially in big battles.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
Unit / Model DetailHighbaseline
How detailed the many on-screen units are — partly a CPU cost in large battles. High is a safe trim when the field fills up.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range — heavy across a big map. High is a strong step down from Ultra.
Effects / ExplosionsHighbaseline
Explosions, smoke and tracer effects — these tank FPS in heavy firefights. Medium smooths the worst dips.
Terrain & FoliageHighbaseline
Ground detail and vegetation density. High is fine; lower it for frames on weaker GPUs.
Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. TAA gives a softer image; SMAA is sharper but shimmers on the zoomed-out map.
