Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	56	75
1440p	33	60
4K	19	35

💡 Shadows of Doubt: The citizen simulation is CPU-bound - graphics settings mostly tame the fog and neon, not the sim itself.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 75 FPS, at 1440p about 60 FPS, and at 4K roughly 35 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality.
