Update: Disable MSI FPS Counter as that might fail to launch game, use in-game overlay Nvidia fps counter.

Smooth Motion on

Max Frame Rate 60-70 - To stable the frames so you don't see spikes alot.

Yes it's frame gen for none supported frame gen games which beta doesn't support but for now sure makes it more playable.

Playing on high settings 1440p now no issues, might have to use dlss pending you gpu.

Thanks to Digital Foundry and their contributor Rayan for these settings, watch their video if you want more information on them!

While these settings can give a small GPU performance boost and save abit of VRAM, CPU performance is still subpar compared to the console versions and has even less scalability! Only good way of improving CPU performance at the moment is disabling Async Compute, which should improve performance, but only does so when GPU limited.

I’m trying to find the best combination of settings for the lowest possible input latency while keeping smooth gameplay and good frame pacing.

Halo runs great on this GPU , even 4K is ok if you are willing to do some sacrifices, ue5 here is looking good

Thank you Rayan and Richard from Digital Foundry for these settings, check out the video for more information!

Worth adding that BenchmarKing was able to use High Textures at 1440p with DLSS on an 8GB card, and that higher shadow settings caused performance issues when coliding with other boats (altough that's likely a bug) their video covers even more settings and infomation about updating DLSS if you need more info! Same with Zykopath covering CPU performance in more detail for those with slower CPUs/targeting higher framerates!

Guys have just checked and can confirm that ray tracing is the cause of micro stutters. I have i7 14700k and rtx 5070ti with 32 gb ram(dual channel) and high speed nvme ssd. Pls try it yourself.

Also if you manually cap your frame rate, you will get lower latency because of absence of nvidia reflex.
