Always use the resolution that fits your monitor. It would be easier if we could know what your current settings are, as well as what CPU and GPU you have, but make sure you have:

Shadow Type: Hard
Shadow Cascades: 1

I personally always have Bloom and Sobel Lighting off as well, but that's based on personal preference.

Play around with the rest of the settings to find out what works for you. If your GPU is the bottleneck, turning down shadow settings, VFX Culling Bias, and LOD settings should do the trick. If it's your CPU, try setting corpse cleanup to instant, max corpses to 0, and turning off some particle effects like exp and money.
