Keep on: DLSS/FSR Quality, Texture Quality High
Turn down: Crowd Density, Model Quality in Act 3

BottleneckGPU

The GPU limits FPS first at 1080p on Ultra (62–78 FPS band).

Try resolution or upscaling before spending time on small graphics toggles.

What to know about this profile

These notes explain the main assumptions behind this game's RightRig profile. Cited benchmarks, when present, are listed under More detail. Not summarized again here.

Calibrated at 1080p Ultra Vulkan native against ComputerBase's Trielta-Felsen (Act 1) GPU-bound scene on a Ryzen 9 7950X3D rig. Ray tracing is not applicable to this title's PC benchmark path; calibration is raster-only (no RT on/off toggle in the measured suite). Act 1 anchors hold; Act 3 Lower City is a different, more CPU-bound scenario and is explicitly not the calibrated case. Predictions at other preset/resolution combinations inherit the engine's scaling curves. DX11 is unusable in this game — the calibration assumes Vulkan, which the game uses by default on modern GPUs.
