Match the official performance tiers and adjust upscaling, frame generation and memory-heavy settings.
Applies to: Windows 10/11 PC · current store build
Quick answer
The official minimum targets 720p/30 on Low with 16 GB RAM and a 150 GB SSD; the recommended tier targets 1080p/60 on Medium. The PC version supports DLSS 3, FSR 3.1/4, XeSS, ultrawide and HDR on compatible hardware. Choose the preset for your GPU before adding frame generation.
Official performance tiers
Minimum targets 720p/30 Low with an i3-8100 or Ryzen 3 1300X, GTX 1650 or RX 5500 XT, 16 GB RAM and a 150 GB SSD. Recommended targets 1080p/60 Medium with an i5-8600 or Ryzen 5 3600 and RTX 3060 or RX 5700. The official 4K/60 Very High tier lists 32 GB RAM and RTX 4080 or RX 7900 XT.
Upscaling and frame generation
The official PC feature list includes DLSS 3, FSR 3.1 and FSR 4 on compatible hardware, plus XeSS. Frame generation improves displayed smoothness but does not repair a CPU bottleneck or insufficient base frame rate.
Safe tuning order
Start from the closest official tier, set resolution and upscaling, then adjust texture memory, shadows and reflections. Change one group at a time and retest the same scene.
