Consider turning offScreen Space Reflections

Does decrease surface reflections. You may prefer to keep on, so change at your own discretion.

Turn OFFMotion Blur
Shown to improve game by ~5 FPS while in combat

For NVIDIA
Set DLSS to Performance / Ultra Performance if you don’t mind the blurriness.

For AMD or NVIDIA GPU that doesn’t support DLSS

Set FidelityFX Minimum Resolution to 90 and maximum to 100.
It causes image artifacting if you set it below 90

Turn OFF these two: Film GrainandChromatic Abberation.
