At 1080p expect around 97 FPS, at 1440p about 80 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. Horizon Forbidden West doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
