Best Settings per Resolution

Based on the measured FPS data, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS at each resolution is Ultra for all three tested resolutions. At 3840x2160, Ultra settings achieve an average of 86.3 FPS, which is the highest quality preset tested and still provides a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS threshold. The data shows that High settings at 4K produce 89 FPS, but since Ultra is also playable, it is the recommended choice for maximum visual fidelity.

At 2560x1440, Ultra settings deliver 165 FPS on average, which is more than double the playable threshold. This resolution benefits from the GPU's massive memory bandwidth of 1.79 TB/s and 512-bit bus width, allowing for high-quality textures without performance penalties. The 165 FPS average also means that users with 144Hz or 165Hz monitors can experience fully smooth gameplay without needing to compromise on settings.

At 1920x1080, Ultra settings reach an average of 256.7 FPS, making this the best setting for players with high-refresh-rate displays. The performance difference between Ultra and High at 1080p is 12.6 FPS, but the absolute frame rate is so high that the choice between these presets becomes irrelevant for smoothness. For all resolutions, the verdict data explicitly lists Ultra as the best settings, confirming that there is no need to reduce quality to achieve playable frame rates.
