Obviously results vary from rig to rig so play around with different textures/shadows/hbao. MiP streaming makes some systems run much better & other slightly worse. It can make some textures look blury when they shouldnt be so test it for YOUR system. Any Questions: Twitch: twitch.tv/vox_e Discord: discord.com/invite/dcbK85WApA
adding DLSS is of course great for people with RTX cards. But i hope FSR will also be added in the future since that would help way more people as it works on both Nvidia and AMD gpus. It also seems to be very easy to implement.
could you make a video about how to solve the low gpu and cpu usage in tarkov ? in 12.12 now im about 30-40 cpu and gpu usage with 80 fps in 12.6 i had alot more. you know why its like that?
i have a 6900XT, and MIP streaming completely destroys the game and makes everything a blurry mess. With no significant FPS bonus aswell. i always keep this off and i get about 80 FPS on a 5120x1440p screen, and about 120FPS on standard 1440p.
Good settings guide as always, Thanks mate! Speaking of PostFX, clarity and adaptive sharpnen is the settings to avoid both kills like 10fps just by touching the slider by +5. Might be different depending on ur PC but these 2 are the heavy ones so Keep that In mind when you guys playing around with ur PostFX.
It's good to note if you have an AMD GPU you can take advantage of Radeon Image Sharpening, which is basically the same as adaptive sharpening but costs little to nothing in frames, makes Tarkov look great too.
Always love your graphics guides not gonna lie! How do you even find out things like the High textures forcing SSR? That stuff I never know how anyone figures it out. Thanks as always :)
I’m under the impression it’s a bug that came with the update. The change in water and the patch notes was why I was curious 👍🏻 it’s off in game but can be on in a config level. Same as some other settings not applying until you force them in the control panel.
Was waiting for this video to pop up! You’re the man. There was another guide I saw and I legit said to myself “I’ll wait for Vox to tell me all the new updates” thanks again for all the time and effort you put into these
Time to change my settings again. Your vids are my go to for Tarkov settings. Love the explanation of what each item does too so I can make an informed decision. Keep up the highly detailed work you do. It’s appreciated.
I watched comparison videos and some people actually loose fps by enabling Mip Streaming (do a comparison on your rig before taking that as the god sent option) ! TAA High get the game so blurry that if you don't have a resolution as high as VoX_E, you should probably go for the lower "TAA" If you have a beafy GPU and a low res screen, supper sampling could be a good way to get less aliasing without the blurriness of some other anti-aliasing (the one from your GPU pannel could be more optimized, just try and compare). Lowering visibility can make you see people more easily and can even act as a wallhack at some distances (grass blades stop being rendered at a certain point, architecture too). From what I learned out of Battle(non)sense videos is that V-Sync with G-Sync is (if you can maintain an fps amount close to your monitor refresh rate) the best. Also locking your fps at a value you can maintain most of the time is very good for muscle memory and overall smoothness appreciation.
Mip streaming really works different on every system. My friend have this setting on and call this an "fps boost", but on my PC it drops my framerate about 7-10 fps avarage.
Definitely varies from system to system. The main reason to use MIP streaming if to free up some VRAM on your card. It helps immensely with people with 4gb on larger more intensive maps. However I’ve noticed it has given me more consistency in frame pacing. The major downside is the textures sometimes don’t stream in to higher res when you’re closer like they’re supposed to
Thank for the vid, the explanation on all of the settings was really helpful! Edit: Oh man, the NVidia settings for responsiveness, the better frames and frame stability has made it really smooth. I used to hate using the 1/4 scopes because they would cause my frames to chug, but now it's really smooth on the smaller maps, and it's better than before on the bigger maps like shoreline.
A really frustrating aspect of these Tarkov graphics guides are the level of contradictory information between channels. That being said, I feel more compelled to follow this one because of the deeper explanation of each setting, what they do, why you want or don't want it. Most other videos on this don't go much further than tell you to disable things "just because". Thanks! Very well produced content I must say!
If you have a larger res monitor with performance problems, a fix that really helped me and I don't see alot of people covering is changing the screen res. I have a GTX 1050 ti with a intel i5, and I was getting about 30-40 fps with the lowest graphics settings (0.75x upscaling so it wasnt 8 bit). I have a 3440x1440 monitor, and changing the res from my native resolution to 2560x1080 allowed me to run upscaling at 1x off, and anti alsiasing at taa getting 45-55 fps. Still isn't the best, but waayy more playable and looks so much better. (Not sure if you should do it on a smaller res monitor like 1920x1080, because currently at 2560x1080 the ui is just a little pixely.)
1) What about "Overall visibility" distance and air drops? Obviously sometimes crate is invisible in the sky until you will scope in that direction. 2) Finally someone who understands Reflex + Boost, good job making your home work! 3) Speaking from my experience with UE4 but if you have enough VRAM, mip streaming can actually lower your FPS as it needs to constantly load and unload textures. But its obviously depends on implementation, I didn´t check it in Tarkov as I have 6gb, but now I surely will 4) DLSS is only available for RTX cored GPU, so if people like me having 1660ti or 1070-1080 on 2k+ screen we actually already have the best solution that available for us, its called "Nvidia Image Scaling" and can be activated from nvidia control panel
Also RE: Nvidia Boost. If you set a temperature target in the Nvidia performance overlay, your temperatures will automatically stay at that number. Fan speed will be adjusted to make that targeted temp. So an increase in power wouldn't necessarily mean your GPU would get hotter if you have your targeted temp set. Meaning you shouldn't see a drop in clock speed. The fans would get louder but who cares if you have your headset on.
Like I said it’s personal choice if you believe it’s worth it or not, setting a manual curve and overlock in MSI afterburner is a much better alternative
I could be wrong but I believe that the low latency mode option in the nvidia control panel 3d settings corresponds to the reflex low latency setting in game. For example in control panel, the options are "on" and "ultra", which is very similar to "On" and On + boost". When the setting became available in EFT, i had it only switched to "On" in game and noticed no increase in FPS or latency. I then set low latency to "on" in 3d settings ( "on" in game as well) and my frames increased drastically and I could notice a faster input.
@@JBorg97 yeah i just turnded it on and im about to test it. i built a new pc recently but i have no idea what im doing and i winder if the build i have now is running properly or if what im getting is like the "norm" fps.
This definitely was true, but I just had a scav run where I got the stuck black screen on death, had to use ALT+F4, immediately relaunched, and was 54k in queue. So try this at your own risk as BSG like to change things
Bro I have an absolute NASA PC and for the life of me I couldn't get it to run smooth. Every other game on my pc runs flawlessly. I tried your exact settings and immediately gained 60-70 fps no exaggeration. Thank you so much man now I can enjoy my favorite game even more.
about anisotropic filtering, don't forget to turn in off in nvidia control panel and on ingame or inversement. Because if you don't you gonna get it 2x. This will result it no visual difference but 2x more work for your PC.
@@lukaplesic634 Yes, that is correct. And not sure why it should apply 2x - that shouldn't be possible at all. Driver is way above software and if driver says NO, the game will not have AF, even it is set to ON ingame.
Your a legend bro thank you for these types of videos ! I remember when I first built my pc 2 years ago and the game was running like crap, your video boosted my FPS from around 50 to 90 using your settings ! I don’t have the most powerful rig but it’s a really good pc for me so thanks again man ! GTX 1660 super Ryzen 5 2600 32GB ram Game is running very nicely and labs I get max 143 !
Just a few points on this video, if you have a modern GPU with 6+GB of VRAM then mip streaming is not for you, so long as you run the game at 1080p or 1440p you're not going to notice any real difference in your FPS. All this setting does, like explained in the video, is stream lower resolution textures in before you reach a model to help with stuttering, if your GPU has less than 6GB of VRAM, definitely turn it on to avoid stuttering. Ofcourse if you run the game in 4K then you're gonna need be mindful of the VRAM you use. Also the same applies to anisotropic filtering, if you have a modern GPU with 6+GB of VRAM the FPS difference is like 1-2 FPS so it really doesn't matter at all which setting you choose.
Tip to bypass queue: Load up a scav game and then ALT F4. Rebooting will prioritize you if you're in a game so no more queue. No matter if its scav or PMC :)
I have RTX3080 and i7 and in my experience I tend to have a better performance with higher graphics settings vs lower. For example I keep textures, shadows and hbao on high.
I mean these settings are a guideline really. I use high ultra with HBAO but that’s mainly for looks. HBAO and shadows definitely hit your frames regardless of hardware though.
@@VoXEonYT great video, man. Your guides are always appreciated ) by the way, I tried mip streaming and it seems a lot of textures don’t render properly in close range. Do you have the same issue?
awesome man , thank you for your video . This is my second wipe but I played until lvl 20 last wipe and figuring this out definitely helped & made it so much more cleaner .
I think "only use physical cores" is needed to enable every time you open the game. You can check if it's actually enabled via task manager. Atleast mine isn't unless I tick that box every time on launch.
@@Sinehmatic I can confirm this. There are some modern games that actually do benefit from HT. I can't vouch for V and 2042, but Battlefield One absolutely did benefit from it. My 4790k would have presented a stuttering mess in that game w/o HT. I recall forcing physical cores being a method of presenting better overall frames times (alleviating some stuttering) in Tarkov, but it doesn't seem to help me much one way or the other on that front. Just better frames with all logical cores at the helm.
I get fps drop if i disable hyper threading through bios but if I check use physical cores i get an fps boost. Anyone know whats going on? 9900k & 3070ti
I tested your theory about SSR and its wrong on my system 1) Going from high to medium textures gives 0-3 fps. You can check if SSR is forced on high textures by actually enabling it, I lost 15fps on "high + ssr low" compared to "high + off" 2) Mip streaming give 0 fps on my 1660ti, there are no benefit of using it unless you are VRAM bottlnecked
What if my FPS and everything is fine, but every time someone shoots nearby (including me) the game freezes for a few sec? For FPS game - that is unacceptable.
i looked at alot of videos to help my game but yours has by far helped me with it thank you so much i can now get 80 fps on average and also very little stutters
Heyyy just wanted to say thank you for putting the time into this video, ever since I've started playing games on PC I have no idea what all these graphics settings are , especially in games like Gta5 there's like 3 pages of them. I love how you actually explain every one of them . It really helped a lot
Thanks man, lighthouse was un playable for me but i had good fps on every other map so it was super frustrating but now im rocking 80-100 so i can get in on the good loot
If you have a better end cpu you should use Low textures. This is because on unity engine it will bring the texture load from your GPU to your CPU. The better your single core performance the more fps you can squeeze out. Ram speed and CPU ring ratio also play a big role in Unity engine. For example I got a 12900k and I'm seeing the same FPS whether or not I'm on my 1070ti or 3080ti its about 150 per map minus lighthouse. But if I bring the Textures to medium using more GPU load my fps will drop by about 30 to 40. Also using a program like process lasso and disabling Hyperthreading will allow you to see a pretty major FPS bump.
well playing with a 12900k 3080ti in low setting is kind of sad, knowing it's not supposed to be a setup for low setting texture XD not sure playing in low texture will change a lot of thing since, the game is already cpu oriented. For me, it doesn't really make any diff in fps after many testing so i play in high quality texture with 11900k 3080ti 32gb 3600mhz 1440p. But when i play with my 4k monitor, i got better fps cause the gpu pop up more than the cpu.
@@benyisg7633 You can try and use 2x supersampling. I think you misunderstood when you switch the Texture to low it will make the game more CPU bound. When the textures are on Medium and High its more GPU bound. Your CPU can render things significantly quicker than your GPU thus more fps. If you have strong single core performance. 3600mhz ram isn't really that quick tbh. I'd wager you could gain additional fps going for 4200 or higher and sub 40 ns ram latency.
Flash indicator is used for Nvidia Reflex. Basically, when you shoot a white box will appear on the screen. This means you can see the delay between you clicking your mouse button and it appearing on the screen. This is good for testing, to see what settings fits you best.
i 100% noticed the ssr high settings yesterday, thought I was going crazy thank you for the upload. 3060ti r7 2700x 16gb ram high and ultra shadows everything else the same current 72 fps. Unity update 2 years ago really screwed my fps lol
HOLY FUCK, I was playing with settings and allot of people said on and boost and i said alright but i was suffering. I have a water loop with a fan curve set for max performance related to my fans. the loop was over heating as the GPU weas being told GO FULL BORE and the custom fan curve was set for lower settings. Thanks for going in depth.
Yes in my Nvidia one I linked I told people to turn it off there. Can also do reflex on with “low latency mode” if you don’t trust the game to apply it.
Really good video, not just the average "textures low bla bla bla" stuff, instead its well in depth of how things work, and to be honest, this guide helped me understand alot of things, and boost my fps. Great Video, all power to you, will subscribe
Thanks man I was having some trouble recently. I have a i7 and an 3050 (laptop gpu). The game was running fine up until recently but I think I must’ve messed with the settings and turned some up to high without realizing. It runs at 60-70+ fps now. I think they’re gonna put out another patch and make it even better optimized but for now my setting are good and the game looks and runs just fine.
My result is verry simple : Got SSD M.2 to run the game R7 3700x / Rtx 3060 12Gb / 16Gb ram 3000Mhz Can barrely have 70 fps on custom 50 FPs on woods BUT 150 Fps on factory .... No matter the tutorial / setting I use, no perf on this game, no one manage to helped me so far
Hey VoX_E, Do you have an updated video touching on the new added graphic settings such as the NVIDIA DLSS? Not sure if that's the only settings added into the ingame graphic options or not though.
Started this game today. Spawned in at shoreline, went to loot some cars. The sound of bullets hitting the metal immediately got my heart pumping. I ran for cover, waited it out. Ok all clear. I keep walking a bit more and proceed to delete myself on a landmine. 10/10 🥲
@VoX_E, thank you for the detailed video and explanation for each setting. This was super organized and helpful. Dropped a sub, looking forward to your other content.
Haha yeah a 70k man que. But there is a way to void it. Just load up a mtach pmc or scav and then alt f4 your game. Then when u relaunch you get to rejoin and skip que
RE: Vsync, (to readers) if you aren't aware, you should turn VSYNC ON in the NVIDIA control panel if you have a Nvidia card, and off in game almost always. Some folks aren't changing in Nvidia control panel and making it universal.
its actually the opposite. you turn it on in game and force it off in the control panel to uncap the FPS. unless this has changed, its been like that for 3 years
Mostly yes the only change would be “Low Latency Mode” set to “on” if you want Nvidia reflex to always be on in Tarkov. Which is like a 30% reduction in render latency (lag)
@@VoXEonYT low latency mode (in control panel) will only improve latency if you are GPU bottlenecked (which almost no one is in tarkov unless you have a really old CPU). Otherwise, the setting in tarkov for it will override it anyway, changing it in control panel wont do anything.
FEAR OF THE DARK! FEAR OF THE DAAAAAARK!!! I HAVE A CONSTANT FEAR THAT SOMETHINGS ALWAYS NEAR! FEAR OF THE DARK!! FEAR OF THE DAAAAAAAARK!! I HAVE A PHOBIA THAT SOMEONES ALWAYS THERE!
Quite a bit of misinformation :\ Mip Streaming isn't "for every system". Nor is "Use Only Physical Cores"... Also, Binural Audio is not buggy at the moment. No more buggy than the sound has always been in this game.
Nvidia as always have their tech locked for Nvidia users but everything that AMD has is open source like Fidelity FX or FreeSync. Tarkov is basically officially an Nvidia game. Multiple settings are available only for Nvidia users.
Hey man, question about "Only use physical cores" Not that long ago it was recommended to turn it off is using AMD CPU and on if using Intel CPU. Did it change recently? (Even Pestily said that in his video last wipe) I have Ryzen 5 2600 so I don't know if I should turn it on or off.
I believe that it helps a lot with frame pacing and hitching. You may get slightly more frames but it’s generally more stable with physical core enabled
So they did remove the local ini 😅 thought I was going crazy searching for it. And if I can only get 80-100 frames on 1080p with top of the line pc idk how 4K is gonna reach 144 unless you have a 5000$ pc or higher..
Can't actually believe how expensive video cards are now, the friggin 3060 is like $800. I bought my 1080 on ebay like two and a half years ago and it was around $300, now it's actually more expensive at $400 plus. Looks like I won't be upgrading for a while...
Obviously results vary from rig to rig so play around with different textures/shadows/hbao. MiP streaming makes some systems run much better & other slightly worse. It can make some textures look blury when they shouldnt be so test it for YOUR system.

Binaural audio is not buggy. Tarkov's base audio systems are the problem. Binaural should always be an automatic yes for most people.
You go into such great detail with every setting, and explained everything so well. Thank you so much!

Yeah that’s dead now, they also just added today that if you are inactive to long it closes out the game too
I wonder when DLSS will hit, keen to see how much it can help
Same man I will be doing tests with all the resolutions. Here's hoping it's a game changer!
I have RTX3080 and i7 and in my experience I tend to have a better performance with higher graphics settings vs lower. For example I keep textures, shadows and hbao on high.
Man you have a 3080 and prob a high gen i7. Just go all-in😂
Yup, this puts the majority of the work onto the gpu as opposed to the cpu with lower res and settings.
I mean these settings are a guideline really. I use high ultra with HBAO but that’s mainly for looks. HBAO and shadows definitely hit your frames regardless of hardware though.
@@VoXEonYT great video, man. Your guides are always appreciated ) by the way, I tried mip streaming and it seems a lot of textures don’t render properly in close range. Do you have the same issue?

i've used your initial video from last year and now this one has helped get every bit of performance out of my Laptop
awesome man , thank you for your video . This is my second wipe but I played until lvl 20 last wipe and figuring this out definitely helped & made it so much more cleaner .
I think "only use physical cores" is needed to enable every time you open the game. You can check if it's actually enabled via task manager. Atleast mine isn't unless I tick that box every time on launch.
Also, test it out for yourself. I get better FPS leaving this option off.
If you only play Tarkov just disable hyperthreading in your BIOS. You only have to do it once and done.
@@Sinehmatic I can confirm this. There are some modern games that actually do benefit from HT. I can't vouch for V and 2042, but Battlefield One absolutely did benefit from it. My 4790k would have presented a stuttering mess in that game w/o HT. I recall forcing physical cores being a method of presenting better overall frames times (alleviating some stuttering) in Tarkov, but it doesn't seem to help me much one way or the other on that front. Just better frames with all logical cores at the helm.
I get fps drop if i disable hyper threading through bios but if I check use physical cores i get an fps boost. Anyone know whats going on? 9900k &
3070ti
I tested your theory about SSR and its wrong on my system
1) Going from high to medium textures gives 0-3 fps. You can check if SSR is forced on high textures by actually enabling it, I lost 15fps on "high + ssr low" compared to "high + off"
2) Mip streaming give 0 fps on my 1660ti, there are no benefit of using it unless you are VRAM bottlnecked
Yeah that sounded iffy. I wouldnt see the point in adding the option to turn SSR off if it was forced on by another setting.
What if my FPS and everything is fine, but every time someone shoots nearby (including me) the game freezes for a few sec? For FPS game - that is unacceptable.
Here I am, still rocking a 980 gtx, hoping that prices for GPUs will become reasonable in my lifetime.
Luckily I snagged at 1080ti for a little less than $400 a year or so before this shit started. Same card used is going for like $700 now
i looked at alot of videos to help my game but yours has by far helped me with it thank you so much i can now get 80 fps on average and also very little stutters
Heyyy just wanted to say thank you for putting the time into this video, ever since I've started playing games on PC I have no idea what all these graphics settings are , especially in games like Gta5 there's like 3 pages of them.
I love how you actually explain every one of them . It really helped a lot
Lol legit as someone new to PC gaming it can get really confusing
Thank you so much bro. Tweaking my settings with your advice gave me enough FPS to be confident about it :)
Thanks man, lighthouse was un playable for me but i had good fps on every other map so it was super frustrating but now im rocking 80-100 so i can get in on the good loot
gpu ?
I wish I could get 144 frames but I haven’t gotten it even with a perfectly capable Rtx 3070 it’s so annoying.
I don't want to jinx it, but I'm seeing a 10-15 fps increase from that MIP streaming setting alone
dwhats your textures at? low or med?
How much VRAM dies your graphics card have?
Gay boy will never respond to u
If you have a better end cpu you should use Low textures. This is because on unity engine it will bring the texture load from your GPU to your CPU. The better your single core performance the more fps you can squeeze out. Ram speed and CPU ring ratio also play a big role in Unity engine. For example I got a 12900k and I'm seeing the same FPS whether or not I'm on my 1070ti or 3080ti its about 150 per map minus lighthouse. But if I bring the Textures to medium using more GPU load my fps will drop by about 30 to 40. Also using a program like process lasso and disabling Hyperthreading will allow you to see a pretty major FPS bump.
well playing with a 12900k 3080ti in low setting is kind of sad, knowing it's not supposed to be a setup for low setting texture XD
not sure playing in low texture will change a lot of thing since, the game is already cpu oriented. For me, it doesn't really make any diff in fps after many testing so i play in high quality texture with 11900k 3080ti 32gb 3600mhz 1440p. But when i play with my 4k monitor, i got better fps cause the gpu pop up more than the cpu.
@@benyisg7633 then play with higher settings? Your GPU is strong as fuck stop throwing all the load onto your CPU
@@benyisg7633 You can try and use 2x supersampling. I think you misunderstood when you switch the Texture to low it will make the game more CPU bound. When the textures are on Medium and High its more GPU bound. Your CPU can render things significantly quicker than your GPU thus more fps. If you have strong single core performance. 3600mhz ram isn't really that quick tbh. I'd wager you could gain additional fps going for 4200 or higher and sub 40 ns ram latency.
great guide and thank you for actually explaining what each setting does!
Still one of the best settings guide out there, thanks man.
What about “flash indicator”? You skipped over that one at the end.
Thanks for this video!
Flash indicator is used for Nvidia Reflex. Basically, when you shoot a white box will appear on the screen. This means you can see the delay between you clicking your mouse button and it appearing on the screen. This is good for testing, to see what settings fits you best.
@@SergzOFFICIAL thank you sir
You sound so confident in for example "definitly more fps" - Im wondering what is your source. Cheers.
Nothing is wrong with Binaural Audio right now, turn it on, it will make the game a better experience, its worth the extremely small fps hit
I will say depending on your monitor: if you're getting color banding: high quality color is actually really nice.
i 100% noticed the ssr high settings yesterday, thought I was going crazy thank you for the upload. 3060ti r7 2700x 16gb ram high and ultra shadows everything else the same current 72 fps. Unity update 2 years ago really screwed my fps lol
HOLY FUCK, I was playing with settings and allot of people said on and boost and i said alright but i was suffering. I have a water loop with a fan curve set for max performance related to my fans. the loop was over heating as the GPU weas being told GO FULL BORE and the custom fan curve was set for lower settings.
Thanks for going in depth.
Binaural audio isn't just "crisper" it allows for front/ back audiolocation
This was so much help. My settings before were f*cked
if you disable vsync at a driver level and turn it on in game, the fps cap will turn off entirely.
Yes in my Nvidia one I linked I told people to turn it off there. Can also do reflex on with “low latency mode” if you don’t trust the game to apply it.
I do this every time and my fps boost is uncapped
which doesn't make a big difference for now cause except on factory, you don't really reach 120+ fps on other maps even with very good pc.
Miss this guy, hope you and Bella are doing fine!
Really good video, not just the average "textures low bla bla bla" stuff, instead its well in depth of how things work, and to be honest, this guide helped me understand alot of things, and boost my fps. Great Video, all power to you, will subscribe
Lol jokes on you, i'm stuck behind 87000 people
no need for perfect settings when you're staring at the launcher 😎
Thanks man I was having some trouble recently. I have a i7 and an 3050 (laptop gpu). The game was running fine up until recently but I think I must’ve messed with the settings and turned some up to high without realizing. It runs at 60-70+ fps now. I think they’re gonna put out another patch and make it even better optimized but for now my setting are good and the game looks and runs just fine.
My result is verry simple : Got SSD M.2 to run the game R7 3700x / Rtx 3060 12Gb / 16Gb ram 3000Mhz
Can barrely have 70 fps on custom 50 FPs on woods BUT 150 Fps on factory ....
No matter the tutorial / setting I use, no perf on this game, no one manage to helped me so far
Reinstall your drivers with ddu
Fixed yet? I have a better experience with 2060 laptop version lol
@@HotdogSosage nope, pilots reinstall, still shitty perfs, but i dot have 150 fps on factory x)
Hey VoX_E, Do you have an updated video touching on the new added graphic settings such as the NVIDIA DLSS? Not sure if that's the only settings added into the ingame graphic options or not though.
Started this game today. Spawned in at shoreline, went to loot some cars. The sound of bullets hitting the metal immediately got my heart pumping. I ran for cover, waited it out. Ok all clear. I keep walking a bit more and proceed to delete myself on a landmine. 10/10 🥲
thanks for this! great video for one with a midrange pc like me!
Thanks man I was struggeling with 40 frames and now im rocking 70!
Thanks for the updated settings video MVP . So do you use MiP I know you said the best setting they have added but just curious ?
Great video and explanations of the settings. My game is running much smoother now!
Thanks for this insightful video, very helpful increased my avg fps with about 19 .
@VoX_E, thank you for the detailed video and explanation for each setting. This was super organized and helpful. Dropped a sub, looking forward to your other content.
Thanks for the usual great quality guide, seen you do many of these before but watch em all anyway 😀
Oh cool I'll adjust me settings to match... oh, 68,983 in que... never mind. I'll come back to this video a 1am.
Jokes aside, thanks for the info!
Binaural audio is a godsend. Don't deactivate it.
Thank you man very helpful especially with a budget build like I have. Love your content/stream
1140p IS 2k. Downsampling from 4k .75 would be somewhere in between 2k and 4k.
That moment when you change graphics settings only to be put on queue behind 70k people.
Haha yeah a 70k man que. But there is a way to void it. Just load up a mtach pmc or scav and then alt f4 your game. Then when u relaunch you get to rejoin and skip que
@@JoshDoes Ye but you can't change some settings in game.
RE: Vsync, (to readers) if you aren't aware, you should turn VSYNC ON in the NVIDIA control panel if you have a Nvidia card, and off in game almost always. Some folks aren't changing in Nvidia control panel and making it universal.
its actually the opposite. you turn it on in game and force it off in the control panel to uncap the FPS. unless this has changed, its been like that for 3 years
@@mtbSTL Hey Tom, you might be correct, I didn't mention that the settings are to be toggled this way only if you have a gsync monitor.
Hey Vox, thanks for the video, assuming we are keeping nvidia control panel settings as per previous video? Thanks!
yea i guess so too!
Mostly yes the only change would be “Low Latency Mode” set to “on” if you want Nvidia reflex to always be on in Tarkov. Which is like a 30% reduction in render latency (lag)
@@VoXEonYT low latency mode (in control panel) will only improve latency if you are GPU bottlenecked (which almost no one is in tarkov unless you have a really old CPU). Otherwise, the setting in tarkov for it will override it anyway, changing it in control panel wont do anything.
Going to give these settings a try, thanks for the video :)
thanks so much!! really helpful.
Sick Video Vox_E! helped me a tonne with my setup!
FEAR OF THE DARK!
FEAR OF THE DAAAAAARK!!!

Great video, On your twitch stream do you use the post fx settings you show here or is it disabled and you use your monitor settings?
Quite a bit of misinformation :\
Mip Streaming isn't "for every system".
Nor is "Use Only Physical Cores"...
Also, Binural Audio is not buggy at the moment. No more buggy than the sound has always been in this game.
Thanks for this great informational video, helps a ton!!!!! :D
Anything with control panel? Or just leave on Let 3d application decide
Hey, this really helped. thanks so much! you gained a new subscriber.
I’ll use on and boost in the winter when its colder
I’ve been waiting for this one, your vids on this topic work best for my set up. Slonger donger!
Awesome video,thanks.
Time to make a few changes in my settings
your a god send bro im on 8gb ram 1660Ti and this helped alot man
Nvidia as always have their tech locked for Nvidia users but everything that AMD has is open source like Fidelity FX or FreeSync. Tarkov is basically officially an Nvidia game. Multiple settings are available only for Nvidia users.
And its a shame.
Hey man, question about "Only use physical cores"
Not that long ago it was recommended to turn it off is using AMD CPU and on if using Intel CPU. Did it change recently? (Even Pestily said that in his video last wipe)
I have Ryzen 5 2600 so I don't know if I should turn it on or off.
I have read similar.
I believe that it helps a lot with frame pacing and hitching. You may get slightly more frames but it’s generally more stable with physical core enabled
@@VoXEonYT Alright, I'll try to see if it helps. Thx for answer.
thanks for this video. ive been struggling
once again saving tarkov 1fps at a time thanks!
The real problem is with the game optmization. My GPU is barely used at 80%, with a Ryzen 5600x.
Great video mate, really helpful thanks.
So they did remove the local ini 😅 thought I was going crazy searching for it. And if I can only get 80-100 frames on 1080p with top of the line pc idk how 4K is gonna reach 144 unless you have a 5000$ pc or higher..
I was about 12 hours early searching vox_e 12.12 settings last night 😂
This is the best vid out there for sure
Great video! Very informative - thank you.
nice video, im pretty much have the same setting (medium or low), except for RES, right now im using nvidia NIS res
Good video. Id like to know if you mess around in the Nvidia control panel and if so, how you have that setup.
Love these Videos VoX_E , keep it up brother!
Fantastic video. Straight and to the point!
Can't actually believe how expensive video cards are now, the friggin 3060 is like $800. I bought my 1080 on ebay like two and a half years ago and it was around $300, now it's actually more expensive at $400 plus. Looks like I won't be upgrading for a while...
