Best The Finals settings for GTX 1050 Ti
Recommended at 1080p: expect 40–70 FPS after applying the playbook below. Your GTX 1050 Ti is the limiting factor in The Finals.
At 1080p, The Finals's rendering pipeline saturates a E-tier NVIDIA GPU before any CPU draw-call limit. Settings that reduce GPU load (shader quality, shadow detail, particle resolution, upscaling) produce the biggest FPS gains. Settings that ease CPU work (view distance, draw distance) help less.
Apply these settings in The Finals
Ranked by FPS impact for tier E hardware. Apply the high-impact ones first — top three usually account for 60% of the gain.
NVIDIA-specific tweaks
These are in NVIDIA Control Panel + GeForce App.
Single biggest input-latency improvement on NVIDIA. ~10–25 ms reduction depending on title. Always on.
Windows Settings → Display → Graphics. Enables CPU offload for GPU work scheduling. Small but consistent gain.
NVIDIA Control Panel → 3D Settings → set per game. Forces full clocks during play.
About the GTX 1050 Ti
The GTX 1050 Ti (2016 release, 4GB VRAM) is a legacy card. At 1080p in The Finals, the biggest FPS levers are upscaling, shadow detail, and brand-specific latency reducers (NVIDIA Reflex). The settings above are the floor — for a fully personalized playbook factoring CPU, RAM, and your monitor refresh rate, run BetterFPS.
GTX 1050 Ti is showing its age in modern The Finals. An RTX 4060 / RX 7600 would unlock 80–120 FPS at 1080p without sacrificing visual quality. If budget allows, a 12–16GB-VRAM upgrade is the single biggest playable-FPS lever for legacy hardware.
