Graphics Settings
The Graphics menu lets you balance visual quality and performance. Higher settings improve image quality but require more GPU and CPU performance.
Quality Preset – Changes all major quality settings at once.
Global Illumination – Controls the quality of indirect lighting. Higher settings improve realistic light distribution.
Shadows – Controls shadow quality, detail and rendering distance.
Anti Aliasing Quality – Reduces jagged edges and visual flickering.
View Distance – Controls how far detailed objects are rendered.
Textures – Controls texture resolution. Higher settings require more VRAM.
Effects – Controls the quality of particles and visual effects.
Reflections – Controls reflection quality.
Foliage – Controls vegetation quality and rendering distance.
Shading Quality – Controls material and surface shading quality.
Post Processing – Controls additional image effects and processing.
Advanced
Global Illumination Method – Selects the lighting technology. Lumen provides high-quality dynamic indirect lighting but requires more GPU performance.
Reflection Method – None disables real-time reflections, Screen Space offers a good performance/quality balance, and Lumen provides higher-quality dynamic reflections.
Motion Blur – Adds blur during movement.
Lens Flares – Enables lens effects around bright light sources.
Bloom – Adds glow around bright lights.
Ambient Occlusion – Adds contact shadows and depth around nearby surfaces.
Resolution
Resolution Scale – Controls the internal rendering resolution. Lower values significantly improve performance at the cost of sharpness.
Anti Aliasing Method – Selects the anti-aliasing technology. TSR provides high-quality temporal anti-aliasing and upscaling.
TAA Upsampling – Enables temporal upsampling when supported by the selected anti-aliasing method.
Upscale Quality – Controls the quality of image upscaling.
NVIDIA DLSS – AI-based upscaling for supported NVIDIA RTX GPUs to improve performance.
NVIDIA Frame Generation – Generates additional frames on supported NVIDIA GPUs for higher displayed frame rates. You should set the frame rate target to unlimited for best performance.
NVIDIA Reflex – Reduces input and rendering latency on supported NVIDIA GPUs.
FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 – AMD’s cross-vendor upscaling technology for improving performance.
Tip: For more FPS, first try DLSS/FSR or Resolution Scale, followed by reducing Global Illumination, Reflections and Shadows.
