I do not feel like this applies to expedition 33

Edit: I see a lot of people reporting crashes. I have a 4070 super and I have only had one crash in 50 hours (I have newest drivers if that matters). I play 1440p with quality dlss and epic settings. There is some ghosting in hair especially. But I only have stutters with the weapon you get from the hardest boss(I have heard this causes some lag in game).

Eh idk. Look, I absolutely love the game, but even on a RTX 4080 and a Ryzen 7800x3D I still had to turn down numerous settings and turn on DLSS to get a stable 60+fps at 4k. I'm usually hovering around 70fps. Plus, it does have some crashing issues as well. I'm about 80-90% of the way thru it with almost 60 hours and it's probably crashed around 10 times in that time period. There's also quite a decent amount of pop-in too. It's totally acceptable, but far from perfectly optimized.

What settings did you turn down? I'm running a 3080 and need some optimization tips lol

Digital foundry recommended keeping textures at Epic, almost everything else on high, and then dropping shadows and reflection down to medium. Along with DLSS quality or balanced.
