i7-12700KF + RTX 3080 Ti - what settings should I use to hit stable 100-120fps at 1440p in BF6?
I want that smooth, locked console-quality feel — stable 100-120fps at 1440p, good-looking, no stutters. Xbox Series X performance mode in BF6 is basically my benchmark. My rig should be able to match or beat it, but I want to make sure I'm not leaving fps on the table or tanking visuals unnecessarily.

Questions
- DX12 worth re-enabling? Turned it off after crashes in early access. Stable now? I've heard it uses the 12700KF's P/E cores more efficiently — real fps gain or just instability risk?
- Am I bottlenecking myself anywhere? Any setting costing fps without adding much visually at 1440p with DLSS Quality?
- What can I safely push up? I have headroom on 12GB VRAM — is Lighting or Volumetric worth bumping to Medium, or is the fps hit not worth it at my target?
Goal isn't max fps — it's the best-looking stable 100-120fps I can get. Basically console performance mode but on PC with better image quality. Any advice appreciated.
