Dead Space Ultimate Optimization, FPS & Best Settings
Welcome to our Dead Space Ultimate Optimization, FPS & Best Settings guide. Dead Space the 2008 game recently received a remake by EA. like most games with Frostbite graphics engine has many optimization problems. Today we see how to improve the fps as much as possible without losing the graphics quality of the game.
Stuttering Problems
The game unfortunately suffers from continuous stuttering regardless of what hardware you have and this unfortunately if not with future patches can not be fixed at the moment. (the game loads the shaders at first start so it is other technical problems).
DLSS GHOSTING AND UGLY TEXTURES FIX
the game uses an old version of DLSS, so if you support it you just go here ⬇️
https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/
download this file⬇️
Insert the file nvngx_dlss.dll in the folder (yourdrive): SteamLibrary steamapps common Dead Space (2023) confirm copy and replace.
ANTI ALIASING TAA
TAA LOW and TAA HIG have the same visual quality and also the same fps for this I recommend hig.
DLSS and FSR 2.0
DLSS and FSR remove shamering a lot but with FSR you lose a lot of quality in some textures
Stock DLSS in game does the exact same thing, but if you manual update DLSS as I explained above to the new version you will see much better like native resolution
Variable Rate Shading (vrs) OFF or ON?
As you can see this option drastically lowers the quality of the textures for this I invite you to keep the VRS off
Light Quality
Sometimes setting the light quality to low can cause this effect of complete darkness for this reason never set the light to low
as for the rest there are NO visible differences by setting the quality between medium and ultra for this I recommend medium
Shadow Quality
This setting in this game works in a slightly different way
Does not change the quality of the shadows of the map and not even those of the detected objects or those of the character
This option affects contact shadows only as you can see from these images⬇️
For this
Change preset option does not have a big impact on performance. I recommend medium or high
Reflection Quality
The reflections in this game are not done very well as you can see they are very grainy as well to ultra
Setting the reflections to medium will decrease this grainy effect and increase your fps for this I recommend medium
Volumetric Resolution
This option only changes the fog resolution.
And this game has many fog effects and needs a lot of them for its gloomy atmosphere in fact you will see these effects everywhere
Ultra will make you drop the performance very much without a justified graphic change for this I suggest you to set it to Medium or low to save as many fps as possible in case you need.
Ambient Occlusion SSAO or RTAO?
RTAO is the only ray tracing option available on this game and we can say that of the 2 is definitely the best.
But SSAO does its job anyway and covers all surfaces pretty well.
In conclusion if you have an RTX with dlss you can try to use the option RTAO ray tracing otherwise SSAO is more than fine
Depth Of Field
This effect is more related to game cutscenes.
For this both options are fine as they will not make you lose fps during gameplay.
Dynamic Resolution Scale
DO NOT use this setting as it will not give any benefit in terms of fps even if set to 60. However this option will only make you play at a very low resolution and with a questionable quality
Optimized Settings vs Ultra preset
Light Quality:
- MEDIUM
Shadow Quality
- :MEDIUM OR HIG
Reflection Quality
- :MEDIUM
Volumetric Res
- : LOW OR MEDIUM
Ambient Occlusion
- :SSAO but use RTAO if you can (rtx gpu)
TAA
- : HIG
⚠️⚠️NOTE!⚠️⚠️
If you want to use DLSS make sure to manual update it as I showed you above
RESIZEBAL-BAR on for FPS BOOST?
Yes, this game without resizable bar can cause you to lose a lot of fps if you haven’t activated it yet.
Right click on your desktop and open nVIDIA control panel
Click sistem information in the upper left
And here if it says ACTIVE it means you don’t have to download anything else
