PC Settings & Performance

The source test identifies film grain and chromatic aberration as major causes of a soft image. Low disables those effects and also improves performance.

The tester found little visible benefit in most scenes and noted that enabling ray tracing disables screen-space reflections.

Texture tiers reportedly use similar memory. Pair the highest texture setting with a conservative VRAM limit rather than filling all available memory.

The middle limit leaves headroom for streaming spikes and may reduce sudden stutter caused by exhausting VRAM.

High preserves grass detail and draw distance. The maximum setting was reported to cost closer to 6%.

High and maximum settings were much more expensive in the source test, with worst-case loss reported around 14%.

The reported difference between high and maximum was small, making this a lower-priority setting.

The source test found limited visible improvement above medium while high and maximum carried a large performance cost.
