Best settings

60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
60 fps at 1440p: ultra preset
144 fps at 1080p: ultra preset

AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon RX 7900 XTX back.
Processor needed for ~237 fps: Ryzen 9 9950X3D or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i5-9600K): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 237.
