Best Palworld settings for the RTX 4090 Laptop (2026)

On a RTX 4090 Laptop (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU), Palworld runs at roughly 99 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 100FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The RTX 4090 Laptop is a high-end graphics card with 16GB of VRAM, and Palworld is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-12900F, it runs great at 1440p — about 99 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 165 FPS at 1080p and 99 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 76 FPS at 4K. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Palworld, 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.

Upscaling — DLSSOff
Palworld (Unreal Engine 5) supports FSR and DLSS. The biggest single FPS lever.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
ShadowsHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range - the heaviest setting outdoors. High is the value pick.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Tree and plant density across the open world. A real cost outdoors.
Grass DetailHighbaseline
Ground grass density. Lower it for a cheap gain and clearer sightlines.
View DistanceHighbaseline
How far the world renders at full detail. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Combat and capture effects. Lowering smooths busy base fights.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Contact shadows in corners and under foliage. Low is a cheap trade.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, motion blur and depth of field. Low is a cheap, clean win.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing (TAA). Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
