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

At 1080p expect around 65 FPS, at 1440p about 54 FPS, and at 4K roughly 31 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 FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
