Visual Quality / High–Ultra Native 1080p

Game default: 1920x1080 → 1920 x 1080

Problem: image clarity

Reason: Native 1080p keeps the image sharp on a 1080p display

Game default: Borderless Window → Borderless Window

Problem: alt-tab stability / capture compatibility

Reason: Borderless improves convenience and works well with overlays and recording tools

Game default: Variable → Variable

Problem: FPS limit

Reason: Variable allows the game to use all available performance instead of forcing a fixed cap

Game default: 180.00Hz → 180 Hz

Problem: display smoothness / input latency

Reason: 180Hz allows lower latency and smoother frame delivery even with variable FPS

Game default: Off → Off

Problem: input latency

Reason: Off reduces input lag and avoids performance stalls, especially on handheld hardware

Game default: Normal → Normal

Problem: rendering compatibility

Reason: Normal keeps the game stable and avoids unnecessary experimental rendering behavior

Game default: 100% → 100%

Problem: blurry image / upscaling artifacts

Reason: 100% keeps native internal resolution with no upscaling or image softness

Game default: Ultra → Ultra

Problem: low texture detail

Reason: Ultra keeps character, weapon and environment textures sharp

Game default: Ultra → Ultra

Problem: blurry textures at angles

Reason: Ultra keeps surfaces sharper with almost no major FPS cost

Game default: Ultra → Ultra

Problem: object detail / geometry quality

Reason: Ultra keeps models and environment detail cleaner

Game default: FXAA+TAA → FXAA + TAA

Problem: jagged edges / shimmering

Reason: FXAA+TAA smooths edges and improves image stability

Game default: On → Off

Problem: blurred motion / reduced clarity

Reason: Off keeps the image sharper during fast combat

Game default: High → High

Problem: combat effects quality

Reason: High keeps attacks, particles and visual effects looking strong without going full GPU murder mode

Game default: Medium → Low

Problem: heavy GPU load

Reason: Medium keeps shadows acceptable while saving performance

Game default: Off → Off

Problem: VRAM / memory usage

Reason: Off avoids extra memory pressure on handheld hardware

Game default: Off → Off

Problem: GPU load / darkening cost

Reason: Off improves performance and avoids extra shadowing cost

Game default: Off → Off

Problem: glow / overbright highlights

Reason: Off keeps the image cleaner and slightly sharper

Game default: On → On

Problem: cinematic light glare

Reason: On keeps the intended flashy DMC look with minimal performance cost

Game default: High → High

Problem: lighting atmosphere quality

Reason: High keeps fog and volumetric lighting looking richer

Game default: Variable → Variable

Problem: reflection quality / GPU load

Reason: Variable balances reflection quality depending on scene demand

Game default: Variable → Variable

Problem: skin/material light softness

Reason: Variable keeps character materials more natural without forcing max cost

Game default: Off → Off

Problem: color fringing / image clarity

Reason: Off removes fake lens distortion and keeps the image cleaner
