💡 Star Citizen: Famously CPU- and server-bound - a fast CPU and 32GB RAM matter more than your GPU; Volumetric Clouds is the heaviest graphics setting.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 77 FPS, at 1440p about 63 FPS, and at 4K roughly 60 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
