Best Valorant settings for Arc A770
Recommended at 1080p: expect 112–176 FPS after applying the playbook below. Arc A770 pairs cleanly with Valorant — no single component is the wall.

Apply these settings in Valorant
Ranked by FPS impact for tier C hardware. Apply the high-impact ones first — top three usually account for 60% of the gain.
Valorant is CPU-bound on modern GPUs — visual settings barely affect FPS. Low across the board frees CPU/GPU for stable 1% lows.
Largest single setting impact. Low everywhere is competitive standard.
Off helps in CPU-bound scenarios. Visibility actually improves — opponents don't get shadow cover.
Always off — adds input lag and serves no purpose in a 240Hz-friendly title.
Competitive setups run with no AA. Saves CPU time and improves edge clarity for tracking moving targets.
Sets a stable cap above your refresh for input-lag balance, OR uncap entirely on a high-tier GPU.
Intel-specific tweaks
These are in Intel Arc Control.
Intel-native upscaler with the best image quality on Arc cards. Equivalent to DLSS Quality preset.
