PUBG graphics settings for Nvidia RTX 3070

The RTX 3070 was originally released as a 1440p gaming graphics card. However, it can easily handle most games at 4K resolution without breaking a sweat.

In addition, this is especially pertinent to older games like PUBG. The increased resolution enables you to see attackers more quickly while maintaining excellent gameplay; nevertheless, 4K TVs can be expensive. If gamers have a QHD panel, Gadinsider recommends remaining with this resolution.
