ARC Raiders runs exceptionally well on RTX 40 Series cards. The entry-level RTX 4060 is more than enough to play the game and get a high frame rate. The game delivers high FPS, but it also has some issues. There is a significant amount of shimmering within the grass, objects, and wires, and even at maxed-out settings, the textures feel blurry.

The settings below aim to fix these issues and ensure that you get the maximum visibility, as it’s a vital factor in surviving and completing your objectives.

Note: Given the current state of the game, we do not recommend using RT, despite its ease of operation. RT produces more noise within the image, and this obstructs your vision. Also, you require a potent CPU to avoid being CPU-bound in this game. The game is likely to push for high CPU usage, and there is a high chance your entry-level 4060 will be CPU-bound when paired with a Core i5 12400F.

For RTX 4050, 4060 Ti, and RTX 4070, we recommend playing at 1440p with these settings. You can expect the VRAM usage to stay under 8GB in most cases, as this game is well optimized, and your frame rate will be high. These settings will partially solve the objects’ pop-in and pop-out issues, helping you spot enemies more easily.

You can play the game at 4K with GPU horsepower such as RTX 4070 Super and higher. However, we recommend using DLSS even when you do not need it. This is because the game has a lot of temporal stability issues within the image, and DLSS helps clean them up to an extent.
