  • Performance – In this mode, your resolution will be capped at 1440p, but the tradeoff is that you’ll net yourself a much smoother framerate that targets 60fps.
  • Quality – This mode favors resolution over framerate. As a result, you’ll get a native 4K resolution that looks crisp, but the moment-to-moment framerate will target 30fps.

Performance or Quality, Which Should You Choose?

While the visuals are a little sharper in Quality mode, we think the Performance mode is where it’s at. That’s because the benefit of having a 60fps framerate impacts the feel of the gameplay, which meaningfully affects the moment-to-moment experience. As a result, we believe that doubling the framerate far outweighs the bump in resolution.

Of course, ultimately, it’s really down to personal preference. But if we had to choose one, we’d opt for the Performance mode over the Quality mode in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
