Best Warzone 2 settings for RTX 4080

Call of Duty: Warzone 2 marks a new era for the franchise as well as the battle royale genre. Along with modern technology and advanced AI combatants, it also features numerous graphical upgrades. Overall, the title is a technological marvel that brings the world of Al Mazrah to life.

RTX 4080 is one of the latest launches from Nvidia. It is a high-end graphics card that is capable of running any title at 4K resolution with brilliant visuals and smooth framerates. While the GPU attracted controversy at its launch due to its pricing and misleading name, Nvidia has rectified its mistakes and it is quickly gaining popularity among PC gaming enthusiasts.

With that being said, this guide offers the best possible Warzone 2 settings to use with this card.

RTX 4080 is overkill for Warzone 2

RTX 4080 delivers higher performance than what Warzone 2 requires. The GPU is capable of maxing out the game even at 4K resolutions. However, the settings suggested in this article are to maximize one's framerate without compromising much on the visuals. At resolutions such as 1080p, the GPU will be bottlenecked by the CPU. Hence, it is suggested to play games with at least 4K or 1440p.

These are the best Warzone 2 settings to use with RTX 4080.
