As a professional esports gamer, high frame rates are non-negotiable – I demand absolute performance optimization from my PC hardware when playing competitively. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is certainly a graphically intensive title, but achieving a flawless 60+ FPS is possible with the right tweaks for your system.
In this comprehensive guide, you‘ll get all my expert tips for extracting every last drop of performance based on extensive testing and troubleshooting on a range of GPUs. I‘ve tailored the recommendations for low, mid-range and high-end PCs to help you get the visual fidelity and frame rates your specific hardware can deliver.
Optimal Settings for Entry-Level GPUs
Resolution – 1600 x 900; Display Mode – Fullscreen
| Graphics Option | Setting | Performance Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Texture Quality | Low | Higher quality textures consume more VRAM which can cause stuttering issues on budget GPUs |
| Post Processing | Disabled | Heavy performance cost with minimal visual improvement |
| Shadow Quality | Low | Complex shadow rendering drags FPS down drastically |
| Visual Effects | Low | Particle effects are extremely taxing on low end hardware |
| Ray Traced Shadows | Off | Only functions on RTX cards so disable to avoid crashes |
Expected Performance
With these scaled back settings, entry level cards like the GTX 1050 Ti or RX 560 can potentially deliver 30 – 45 FPS on average. Visual quality takes a noticeable hit but playability is quite decent.
Troubleshooting Tips
- Lower resolution further if frame rate remains sluggish
- Close background apps consuming GPU/CPU resources
- Disable Windows Game Bar and Game Mode
Balanced Visuals and Speed for Mid-Range GPUs
Resolution – 1920 x 1080p; Display Mode – Fullscreen
| Graphics Option | Setting | Performance Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Texture Quality | High | Higher VRAM capacity on mid-range cards enables decent texture detail |
| Post Processing | Medium | Minimal performance cost for improved lighting/shading |
| Shadow Quality | Medium | Less GPU intensive compared to high, still looks great |
| Visual Effects | Medium | Particle effects dialed down slightly from max settings |
| Ray Traced Shadows | Off | Mid-range GPUs still can‘t handle demanding ray tracing |
Expected Performance
You can expect 60 – 80 FPS fairly consistently at 1080p with these settings using a mid-range card like RTX 2060 or RX 5700 XT. Visual quality takes a moderate hit but the frame rate should stay well above 60 FPS for responsive gameplay.
Troubleshooting
- Enable DLSS/FSR for potentially 20%+ FPS boost
- Lower shadow quality if frame rates decrease in intense areas
- Limit volumetric fog and ambient occlusion to reduce stutters
Smooth 4K60 MAGIC for High End GPUs
Resolution – 3840 x 2160; Display Mode – Fullscreen
| Graphics Option | Setting | Performance Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Texture Quality | Epic | Top tier GPUs like RTX 3080 have ample VRAM to handle 4K texture resolution |
| Post Processing | Epic | Negligible performance cost with major atmosphere/lighting enhancement |
| Shadow Quality | Ultra | Highest shadow complexity paired with crisp 4K resolution |
| Visual Effects | Epic | Bombastic particle effects in their full glory barely dent high end GPU frames |
| Ray Traced Shadows | On | RTX 3080 can easily power demanding ray traced effects with some FPS leftover |
Expected Performance
At native 4K resolution with maxed graphical settings, you can expect 60 FPS and beyond with some Overclocking headroom to spare on cards like RTX 3080 or Radeon 6800 XT. Visuals are simply breathtaking!
Troubleshooting
- Activate DLSS Frame Generation for up to 2x FPS increase at minimal quality loss
- Enable Nvidia Reflex to massively reduce input lag for ultra responsive controls
- Limit volumetric fog to maintain 60 FPS during graphically intense sequences
In addition to these tailored settings for your system, ensuring the latest GPU drivers, Windows updates and sufficient cooling will go a long way. Jedi: Survivor still has room for optimization via future patches so stay updated!
May these tweaks bring you one step closer to your dream of buttery smooth lightsaber action at 60+ FPS! Game on!
