The following guide will help players enhance the game’s performance and graphics settings on their PC for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart – Best PC Graphics Settings
Before we get inside the game and its various settings, players have to set up their hardware system carefully. If you wish to run the game above 60 FPS through 1440p via DLSS, you would need the following:
- Windows 11 Pro (64-bit)
- Intel Core i7-10700K CPU with 4.66GHz
- 32GB RAM
- NVIDIA RTX 3080 10GB MSI Gaming X Trio
- Single Drive with 2 P2 1TB in RAID
Display Settings
We begin with all the Display settings that will be available to you. Keep the Aspect Ratio to Auto and your Display Resolution to be the same as your monitor’s resolution unless your picture gets blurry.
Players can keep their Vsync off if their Monitor Refresh Rate is above 100Hz; if it is lower, switch it on.
If you have an RTX 4000 Series Graphic card, keep your DLSS Frame Generation turned on to improve performance. Similarly, keep the NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency on if your system will let it.
For the gaming experience you want, there is debate about whether to keep Fullscreen or Exclusive Fullscreen.
While there is some talk of keeping the latter, many prefer the former since it is easier to Alt+Tab on similar performance. One setting connected to this is the Refresh Rate, which is Grayed Out for the fullscreen mode.
For those with Exclusive Fullscreen mode, go for the highest number here. The final aspect here is whether to use an Upscale Method and Anti-Aliasing.
Ideally, for Upscale, you should consider DLSS the best choice and AMD FSR 2.1 after it.
Keep Dynamic Resolution off and Upscale Quality to Quality, which can be ramped up to Balanced, Performance, or Ultra Performance, but your picture gets blurrier.
Coming to Anti-Aliasing, it depends on the player. To run it, you have to keep off the Upscale Method. DLAA is only for NVIDIA Graphics Cards and the best of the lot, though it takes up extra frames.
SMAA is cheap and sharp, while TAA creates blurry images but rids you of the jagged edges.
Best Graphics Settings for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
- Ambient Occlusion: HBAO+ is the best choice among the three options (XeGTAO and SSAO).
- Phantom Dash Effect: It is up to the player what they want.
- Texture Quality: Keep this High since you will get clearer images from Low to High. However, there is not much change from High to Very High.
- Film Grain Strength: Depending upon the player.
- Vignette: Again, a personal choice.
- Shadow Quality: The Ultra is the best as it is near Ray-Traced graphics. Like Texture Quality, the jump is stark. If you have Ray-Traced Shadows, set them Low.
- Sharpness: A personal option.
- Screen Shake: A personal choice for you.
- Level Detail: Ultra since it is the best out there, there is a big difference between High and Very High.
- Texture Filtering: 16x Anisotropic as it takes up minimum performance while improving your surroundings.
- Screen Space Reflections: High with Ray-Traced Reflections also high.
- Hair Quality: Very High as it runs on the same power as High, but looks far greater than Low or Medium.
- Field of View: Personal choice for players.
- Bloom: You can keep it on if you like.
- Vignette: Personal choice.
- Ray-Traced Ambient Occlusion: You can keep it off since you are using the HBAO+.
- Level of Detail: Ultra.
- Chromatic Aberration: Keep it off to avoid blurriness.
- Weather Particle Quality: Keep it High for the same jump level mentioned above with other elements.
- Reflection Resolution: Very High is the way to go, as High will give you a lot of pixels.
- Depth of Field: Set it to Medium as it reduces the blurry nature. It can also keep to High.
- Object Range: You can keep it around 10 for using Ray-Traced Shadow on, and if not, around 6.
Thus, that is all the information players need regarding the display and graphics settings for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.
Remembering that players must relaunch the complete game after applying all the changes is essential. You will get a nice feel of how your system is performing and the game is going in its initial stages.
