💡 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered: UE5 rendering over the original engine - prone to traversal stutter; upscaling helps a lot.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 48 FPS, at 1440p about 29 FPS, and at 4K roughly 16 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.
