Best F1 25 graphics settings for RTX 4080 and RTX 4080 Super

F1 25 is set to release globally on May 30, 2025, on different platforms like Windows, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Nevertheless, you can download the early access version today, May 27. The latest title marks the 18th installment in the high-octane simulation series. This year's game features legendary racers from the previous generation, improved mechanics, and the introduction of Path Tracing for the first time.

That said, you might be wondering if the game is very demanding. Luckily, judging by F1 25's system requirements, we can conclude that it is not demanding at all. With the suggested GPU being the RTX 2070, players who own the RTX 4080 or the RTX 4080 Super should have absolutely no issues running the game at high resolutions.

Moreover, EA has also released an F1 25 PC specs sheet, featuring the components required for different settings. This sheet shows that the RTX 4080 Super can run the game with Path Tracing. However, in order to get the best performance, it is recommended to make a few changes to the settings.

In this article, we'll look into the best graphics settings for F1 25 on the RTX 4080 or the RTX 4080 Super GPUs.

Note: These settings are for a PC featuring at least the recommended system requirements of the game, particularly an RTX 4080 GPU.

The game looks absolutely stunning on the RTX 4080 GPU. It easily runs at 4K resolution with the Ultra High graphics preset. This graphics setting produces high-quality textures, character animations, and reflections. Ray Tracing further enhances how light, shadows, and reflections work, making the gameplay significantly more realistic.

If you don't own a 4K gaming monitor, we recommend you bring the resolution down to 1440p, which also looks amazing at the Ultra High graphics preset. The provided settings should get you upwards of 60 FPS on average.

These are the best settings for the RTX 4080:

Gamma Adjustment: 100

Best F1 25 settings for RTX 4080 Super

While the RTX 4080 Super is more than capable of running F1 25 at higher resolutions, we've opted for 1080p in order to use Path Tracing. Both Path Tracing and Ray Tracing are extremely demanding on the GPU and would greatly affect performance, due to which we'll be sticking to 1080p.

We've used the Ultra Max graphics preset here, which is the highest in the game. This produces some of the best visuals ever, featuring high-res textures, shadows, and character animations. These settings should get you an average of 60 FPS.

Also, if you turn off Path Tracing and use Ray Tracing alone, you can up the resolution to 1440p. You can still use the Ultra Max settings and easily get over 60 FPS.

These are the best settings for the RTX 4080 Super:

Gamma Adjustment: 100
Motion Blur Strength: 20
Steering Animation: On
Video Mode: Default
Peak Nit Adjustment: 1000 (Greyed Out)
HDR: Only turn on if you have an HDR monitor

Advanced Setup (Graphics)

Detail Preset: Ultra Max
Path Tracing: On
Ray Reconstruction: Auto
Ray Traced Shadows: On
Ray Traced Reflections: On
Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion: On
Ray Traced Transparent Reflections: On
Ray Traced DDGI: On
