💡 Starfield: Unusually CPU-bound in cities — a CPU upgrade often helps more than a GPU one.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 81 FPS, at 1440p about 66 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
