Starfield Performance Upgrade - 40FPS, 60FPS, VRR And More - The Complete Breakdown

Digital Foundry had early access to the display mode update for Starfield, and we’ve put together this detailed report on the various performance options and visual settings choices available. While Bethesda recommends a 120Hz display with VRR (as do we actually!), there’s a wealth of viable options for those with standard 60Hz screens with no variable refresh rate support... and major cities apart, the game does a good job of hitting 60 frames per second.
