Settings to lower first in Crosshair X
- 1Resolution or render scale, or upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) where Crosshair X offers it. Rendering fewer pixels is the biggest single saving.
- 2Then shadows, volumetric effects (fog, clouds, lighting) and ambient occlusion: in most games these cost the most frame rate for the least visible difference.
- 3Texture quality last: it costs little frame rate as long as your card has enough video memory.
