💡 Control: A flagship ray-tracing showcase - RT is gorgeous but very heavy; pair it with DLSS.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable DLSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 61 FPS, at 1440p about 47 FPS, and at 4K roughly 27 FPS with optimized settings. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality.
