Marvel Rivals is finally available on all platforms, including PC. As a first-person shooter, you need to ensure you’re getting high FPS for smooth performance. The game requires at least a GTX 1060, while the recommended specifications list an RTX 2060 or a similar card. However, no matter which card you have, selecting the right settings is crucial for achieving high FPS.
I’ll walk you through the best settings that I have used to achieve over 120 FPS in Marvel Rivals on PC at 1440p without ruining the visual quality.
What are the best Marvel Rivals PC settings for max FPS?
First, let’s talk about the rig I’m using. My PC is packed with the RTX 3080, Ryzen 5 5600X, and has 32GB of DDR4 RAM. With the settings listed in the table below, I was constantly getting around 140 FPS throughout the match. The FPS did drop a bit at some spots, but it never went below 120.
On top of that, do keep in mind that I was playing the game at 1440p and not 1080p. If you play at 1080p with these settings, you can expect to get over 160 FPS easily. On the other hand, taking the resolution up to 4K will drop the FPS, but it will most likely stay above 100. To improve it, you’ll need to take Model, Shadow, and Texture Detail down to low.
In any case, here are the best Marvel Rivals PC settings for max FPS. Keep in mind that the game will still look visually appealing with the following settings. However, if you only want around 100 FPS but even better visual quality, you can take the Shadow and Texture Detail to high.

Additional tips for improving performance in Marvel Rivals
While the correct settings will help you get the most FPS in Marvel Rivals, you can also follow the methods mentioned below to improve performance:
- Close background applications: Keeping multiple applications running in the background while playing Marvel Rivals will overburden the system, making it unable to assign the game the resources it needs to operate smoothly. So close all unnecessary applications while playing the game.
- Update GPU drivers: Intel, AMD, and Nvidia released new GPU drivers a while ago to make their cards compatible with Marvel Rivals, so make sure to install them to get the best performance.
