💡 Sons of the Forest: Dense forests are the heaviest load and partly CPU-bound; lower Vegetation Density first.

At 1080p expect around 87 FPS, at 1440p about 72 FPS, and at 4K roughly 63 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. Sons of the Forest doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
