Best Settings for RTX 4070 Ti Super in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Dial these settings in when playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 with your RTX 4070 Ti Super to get the most out of it.

Expedition 33 is Sandfall Interactive’s latest turn-based RPG utilizing the infamous Unreal Engine 5. The game begins with a somber tone, and citizens vanish every year, at a certain age, without explanation. Here, you play as Gustave, a volunteer group leader, who sets out on a desperate journey to break this cycle and end it for all. Story aside, the choice of Unreal Engine 5 is just perfect.

Lighting, ambiance, and Lumen-based (software side) ray tracing add up beautifully. However, software-side RT may limit the key advantages of the RX 9000 Series, or even the Ada Lovelace and Blackwell GPU architectures, with their hardware-accelerated ray tracing. This article explores the settings 4070 Ti users should consider when playing the game and maintaining a 60+ FPS rate at 1440p.

Note: Issues such as ghosting, artifacting, and smearing are present in every UE 5 title, including this case. While there isn’t a magical fix for these issues, swapping in DLSS 4 or replacing DLSS 3.7 will significantly help clean up the image.

A few keynotes to consider:

Use DLSS Quality when playing the game, switch to balanced for intense fights.
Motion blur can cause ghosting, so keeping it off is best. It’s totally up to you.
Set post-processing to Epic, but lower it if the visuals feel overly processed or distracting.
4070 Ti super needs a fast CPU to run without slowing down. This game is CPU-intensive, like every other UE 5 title.
Keep an eye on your frame times, 1% lows, and 0.1% all the time when using these settings; you can further tweak them to improve the overall experience.
You can expect an average of around 95-100 FPS throughout the game with the 4070 Ti Super at 1440p using these settings.
