SBMM Lobby Editorial Performance & Competitive Tuning
Independent laboratory benchmark guidance for competitive frame pacing and low input latency.
Survivor launched with significant CPU thread utilization bottlenecks on Koboh. Subsequent patches (notably Patch 9) overhauled CPU multithreading and added DLSS/FSR 3 frame generation, stabilizing frame times across dense hub locations.
| Resolution | Target FPS | Suggested GPU | Preset | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 60 FPS | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti / AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT | High | Maintains 60 FPS with Ray Tracing toggled off and DLSS Quality active. |
| 1440p | 60 FPS | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 / AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT | Ultra | Enables smooth 60+ FPS exploration with Ray Tracing enabled. |
| Steam Deck (800p) | 30 FPS | Custom AMD RDNA 2 (8 CUs) | Low | Steam Deck Playable. Koboh settlement strains the APU; lock to 30 FPS with FSR Performance mode. |
Competitive Latency & Frame Pacing Optimization
- Disable Ray Tracing on mid-range GPUs to avoid severe 1% low frame time spikes.
- High-speed PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is strictly recommended due to large 155GB asset streaming bandwidth.
