Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The resolution scaling data reveals a clear trend: as resolution increases, average FPS drops significantly across all settings, but the rate of decline varies by preset. At Low settings, the combo delivers 201 FPS at 1080p, 133 FPS at 1440p, and 74 FPS at 4K. This represents a 33.8% drop from 1080p to 1440p and a 44.4% drop from 1440p to 4K, totaling a 63.2% reduction from 1080p to 4K.

At High settings, the scaling shows 127 FPS at 1080p, 84 FPS at 1440p, and 46 FPS at 4K. The percentage drops are 33.9% from 1080p to 1440p and 45.2% from 1440p to 4K, with an overall 63.8% reduction from 1080p to 4K. These percentages are remarkably consistent with the Low settings pattern, suggesting that the scaling behavior is resolution-dominated rather than settings-dominated.

Medium settings show the same trajectory: 159 FPS at 1080p, 105 FPS at 1440p, and 58 FPS at 4K. The drops are 34.0% and 44.8% respectively, for a 63.5% total reduction.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1080p, Ultra settings deliver 99 FPS average, which is above the 60 FPS threshold commonly considered playable, making it a viable choice for users with 60Hz monitors. For higher refresh rate displays at 1080p, High settings at 127 FPS or Medium at 159 FPS offer smoother experiences, with Medium providing the best balance of visual quality and performance.

At 1440p, the data suggests Medium settings provide the best experience among the tested presets. The 105 FPS average with a range of 89 to 120 FPS ensures consistent frame delivery above 60 FPS, while High settings at 84 FPS remain playable but offer less headroom for demanding multiplayer scenarios. Ultra settings at 65 FPS dip close to the 60 FPS threshold and may experience noticeable frame drops during intense gameplay moments.

At 4K, Low settings at 74 FPS is the only preset that maintains an average above 60 FPS. Medium settings at 58 FPS are marginally below the threshold but may still provide a playable experience on VRR displays. High at 46 FPS and Ultra at 36 FPS are below ideal playability standards and are not recommended for consistent multiplayer performance.

The Medium preset across all resolutions shows the most stable frame time data, as evidenced by the recorded minimum and maximum values. At 1080p, the 135-183 FPS range; at 1440p, the 89-120 FPS range; and at 4K, the 49-67 FPS range all indicate reasonable consistency without extreme frame spikes.
