Best Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO Graphic Settings for Nvidia RTX 3060 and RTX 3060 Ti

Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO is an eagerly anticipated addition to the Dragon Ball franchise, scheduled to release on October 11. As the game boasts stunning graphics and intense gameplay, many players are concerned about optimizing their systems for the best experience, particularly for those using the Nvidia RTX 3060 or RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards.

To help you achieve the best performance on your RTX 3060 or 3060 Ti, this guide will walk you through the most effective settings for Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO. We'll cover Windows and Nvidia optimizations as well as in-game settings, all aimed at maximizing your FPS and enhancing performance without sacrificing too much on visuals.


Optimizing Windows for best performance in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO

To start, it's essential to optimize your Windows settings.

  • First, disable the Game Bar (as it often causes performance issues, unless you have specific AMD Ryzen processors like the 7900X3D or 7950X3D, which benefit from the Game Bar.)
  • Next, ensure Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling is enabled under Graphics Settings. This boosts performance by allowing your GPU to handle more tasks efficiently.
  • Game Mode should be turned on for improved performance, as it now works effectively on Windows 11, allocating more system resources to the game.

Optimizing Nvidia settings

Now let's dive into your Nvidia settings for optimal results.

  • Start by opening the Nvidia Control Panel and heading to the Manage 3D settings section. Set Low Latency Mode to "On" to reduce input lag.
  • Make sure the Power Management Mode is set to "Normal" instead of "Maximum Performance," as this will help maintain higher boost clocks over time.
  • Adjust the Shader Cache Size to 10GB or higher, especially if you have ample storage space. This helps with stuttering issues by caching more data, which can improve load times and overall game performance.
  • In addition, disable the Nvidia Overlay since it consumes system resources, leading to a drop in FPS.
  • Lastly, ensure your monitor is set to its native refresh rate in the Control Panel, especially if you have a 144Hz or 240Hz monitor, to prevent unnecessary frame rate caps.

Best in-game settings for Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO

Once you've fine-tuned Windows and Nvidia, it's time to optimize the in-game settings of Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO to get the best balance between visuals and performance on your RTX 3060 or RTX 3060 Ti.

Firstly to unlock FPS in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO, head into Local Disk(C:) > Users > username > AppData > Local > SparkingZero > Saved > Config > Windows. Open the Engine file and add this command:

  • [/script/engine.engine]
  • FixedFrameRate=165
  • [SystemSettings]
  • bUseFixedFrameRate=True
  • bSmoothFrameRate=False
  • FixedFrameRate=165
  • FrameRateLimit=165.0

I have used 165 as my monitor's refresh rate is 165. So, adjust that accordingly in your system.

Here are the ideal settings for smooth gameplay in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO:

  1. Window Mode: Use Borderless for better performance and minimal input lag.
  2. Resolution: Set to your monitor's native resolution (e.g., 1440p or 1080p) to avoid blurry visuals.
  3. Keep the Resolution Scale at 100% to maintain image clarity.
  4. V-Sync: Turn off V-Sync to reduce input lag and unlock your FPS. Use G-Sync or FreeSync if you experience screen tearing.
  5. Antialiasing Quality: Set to "Off" or "Low" for a solid FPS boost of around 7%, though it might slightly affect visual quality.
  6. Shadow Quality: Set to "Low" or "Off." Turning shadows off can improve FPS by up to 15%, though the visuals may look flat. If you want a good balance, "Low" is a good compromise.
  7. Texture Quality: If you have more than 6GB of VRAM, set this to "High." For 4GB, choose "Medium," and for less, go with "Low."
  8. Post Processing Quality: Set to "Low" for sharper visuals and a 4% FPS gain.
  9. Effect Quality: Set this to "Low" to reduce the impact of special effects during combat and stabilize FPS, providing a 5% boost.
  10. Depth of Field: Turn this off for clearer visuals and no FPS drop.
  11. LOD Quality: Set to "Medium" for a 3% boost in performance, or "Low" if you're struggling with FPS.
  12. Motion Blur Quality: Off
  13. Camera Shake: Off
  14. Grass Quality: Reducing this to "Low" saves about 1% FPS per setting bracket.
  15. Destruction Effect Quality: Low for FPS and High for visuals.

By applying these settings, you can achieve smoother performance in Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO, ensuring a more responsive and visually balanced gaming experience on your RTX 3060 or 3060 Ti.
