When i talk about a lot of work, i'm talking about how much turning off those settings will it effect performance, as opposed to lower resolution which is the most demanding thing usually by a huge margin.

Resolution isn't demanding, it's what has to be rendered at that resolution, anything can run Pacman at 1080p. Lighting, Shadows, Reflections and other shaders are usually the biggest hits on performance.

What? 720p to 1080p requires 2.5x the raw  power. I understand what you're saying about pacman, but it doesn't make any sense. lowering resolution is the best way to get the best performance  in a game while keep it's original look.  you look at ps4 pro or xbox x peromance mode in games for example when they try to hit 60fps, every developer lowers resolution as it's the best way to get better performance, all you have to do is look at how big dynamic resolution is.
