Best Fortnite graphics settings for Nvidia RTX 4080 and RTX 4080 Super
The Nvidia RTX 4080 and 4080 Super are some of the fastest graphics cards ever launched. They can play nearly every game, including Fortnite, at 4K resolution without any major compromises. The GPUs cost a hefty premium, however, and are only meant for enthusiasts who can invest thousands of dollars into their gaming rig.
Fortnite gets more demanding by the day. Thus, a few tweaks to the settings are recommended if you are looking to get competitive framerates in the battle royale. In this article, we list the ideal combinations for the 4080 cards.

Both the 4080 and 4080 Super are some of the best GPUs money can buy today. You can run Fortnite at high framerates without major hit-and-trial. If you're willing to compromise a little with framerates, even the Epic settings should work fine on both cards. However, for most gamers, the High options significantly improve visual quality while delivering impressive framerates.
