Call of Duty Black Ops 6 (BO6)

FidelityFX CAS Explained: Strength, On or Off?

Add to Watchlist

FidelityFX CAS Explained

FidelityFX CAS is an upscaling feature in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (BO6) that improves image quality and frame rates. Read on to learn more about FidelityFX CAS, how to turn FidelityFX CAS on, and the best strength setting.

What is FidelityFX CAS?

Optimizes Visual Performance and Increases Frame Rates

FidelityFX Cas Setting

FidelityFX CAS is an upscaling feature in Black Ops 6 that can optimize system performance and image quality by sharpening pixel levels. For the best experience with Black Ops 6, use Fidelity FX CAS if you need to improve frame rates since BO6 uses high resolution and high fidelity assets.

Should You Turn FidelityFX CAS On or Off?

Best to Turn FidelityFX CAS On

Turn On FidelityFX CAS

We recommend turning on FidelityFX CAS to get the best experience in Black Ops 6. In exchange for using up more system resources, it improves both system performance and image quality, which is extremely helpful in multiplayer matches.

Set Strength to 100

We also recommend setting the FidelityFX CAS strength to 100 for sharper images. The game has some soft blur out of the box, so the increase in sharpness helps in recognizing enemies from afar, even if it's just a few pixels.

DLSS is a Better Option for Nvidia Users

NVIDIA DLSS Option

Black Ops 6 players with an RTX graphics card may benefit more with the NVIDIA DLSS option as this setting is primarily catered to Nvidia cards and will also boost frame rates while sharpening images at the same time.

How to Turn On FidelityFX CAS

FidelityFX CAS Best Graphics Settings

To improve game graphics and turn on the FidelityFX CAS, follow the indicated steps below:

How to Turn On FidelityFX CAS
1
Go to the Settings Tab in the Main Menu and click on Graphics.
2
Set On-Demand Texture Streaming to Optimized option. Turning this on will provide more color details in-game as high quality textures will be downloaded while playing the game.
3
Set the Allocated Texture Cache Size depending on the available VRAM usage of your hard drive.
4
Turn off the World Motion Blur function under the Post Processing Effects section. This removes blurring for moving objects, making it easier to spot enemies or objectives.
5
Also turn off the Weapon Motion Blur option as this can be a distracting aspect during gunfights.
6
Turn on or choose the FidelityFX CAS option and set the Strength to 100. This will improve overall visual performance and increase frame rates.
