It’s hard to know which PC settings tweaks will improve your gaming experience and which ones are a waste of time. Here are a few adjustments that’ll ensure you get the most out of your machine.
So you’re fired up to play the best PC games of the year, and you want to eke every bit of performance out of your rig as possible. We understand—after all, PCs are multipurpose machines, which means yours might not be optimized for gaming out of the box. But with so much snake oil out there, it’s hard to know what’ll actually improve your experience, and what’ll just waste your time. Here are a few tweaks that’ll ensure you get the most out of your machine.
Rein In Background Processes
If you have hardware-hungry programs open in the background, they may prevent your PC from using its full potential in games—particularly if you have a lower-end PC with limited resources. In general, closing those background programs is a good idea, but don’t expect miracles.
Windows’ built-in Game Mode is designed to help with this as well. It dedicates more of your system to the game you’re playing, so background processes can’t steal precious CPU power. It also prevents Windows Update from installing new drivers or sending restart notifications, which is a nice bonus. Game Mode is on by default in current versions of Windows 10, but it doesn’t hurt to check—head to Settings > Gaming > Game Mode and flip the switch to On. You might also try turning it off, as it has been known to cause problems with certain games.
Apart from this, don’t put too much stock in “slimming down” Windows for gaming. Many of the tips you’ll find for doing so are outdated or straight-up useless—instead of hunting through the registry for obscure tweaks, you’re better off focusing your attention on your hardware, drivers, and in-game settings. (Oh, and turning off notifications so they don’t bother you while you’re playing.)
Update Your Graphics Drivers
In general, you don’t need to go out of your way to update drivers for your hardware unless you’re experiencing issues. But your graphics card is an exception: manufacturers like Nvidia and AMD regularly issue driver updates that contain optimizations for the latest games. So installing the manufacturer’s drivers and keeping them up-to-date can give you a serious boost in performance, particularly on new titles.
You may already see the Nvidia or AMD driver icon in your taskbar, but that doesn’t mean you have the latest version. Head to the download pages on the Nvidia, AMD, or Intel website, punch in your graphics card model, and download the latest driver package—if you don’t know what graphics card you have, here’s how to find out.
Wire Up Over Ethernet (or Improve Your Wi-Fi)
If you play multiplayer games online, you’re just as limited—if not moreso—by your internet as you are your graphics hardware. If your game is lagging, stuttering, or constantly losing connection, you’ll need to improve your network connection.
Your best bet, if at all possible, is a wired connection: connect your PC directly to your router with an Ethernet cable. If your computer isn’t next to your router, find another way—your home may have Ethernet jacks in the wall wired to a central location, or you can use powerline adapters to run network data through the electrical wiring in your house. I’ve even run Ethernet cable across the ceiling of my kitchen before—desperate times call for desperate measures. If Ethernet isn’t an option, check out our tips for improving your Wi-Fi instead. If you can get a strong enough connection with low latency, it can be good enough.
Adjust Your Mouse Settings
You’ve probably gotten used to how your mouse moves on screen, but certain settings are designed more for desktop work than gaming. If it’s been a while since you dove into your mouse’s settings, there are a few things you might want to change.
From Settings > Devices > Mouse > Additional Mouse Options, make sure the pointer speed is set to the default 6th notch from the left, and Enhance Pointer Precision is disabled. Pointer Precision—also called Mouse Acceleration—will move your cursor farther when you move your mouse faster. That can be handy on the desktop, but it isn’t ideal for gaming where you want to build that muscle memory, predict where your cursor will land, and get enemies in your crosshairs every time. (If you use a trackpad or don’t have a lot of desk space, it could help you get around those limitations—but most gamers prefer to keep it turned off.)
If you want your movements to be more or less sensitive, it’s best to adjust sensitivity in-game rather than in Windows (provided your game supports it). If you have a gaming mouse with adjustable DPI, you can also adjust that in conjunction with in-game sensitivity to really dial things in. Mouse sensitivity is personal preference, and there are a lot of different configurations to try—so test different combinations and read up on other gamers’ recommendations to see what’s best for your playstyle.

Detail vs. performance
Here are some methods for improving your low frame rate with hardware you already own.
Here are some methods for improving your low frame rate with hardware you already own.
Almost every player has encountered low frame rates. Often, a game is running fine, then begins to stutter when your character enters a big city or complex environment. Your view starts looking like a slideshow, things get visibly choppy when you turn the camera fast, and swaying objects like hair or banners move less fluidly.
It all adds up to a less immersive experience, but what causes it? Frame rate, measured in frames per second (FPS), reports the number of times your graphical hardware redraws the screen every second. Your graphics card, CPU, and RAM are all involved in the effort to create the geometry, textures, lighting, and effects that compose one of those frames.
When one component in the chain causes a bottleneck — for example, your CPU tells your GPU to render a large number of objects at once — your PC draws fewer frames per second. Reduced frame rate can be caused by unoptimized code, glitches, or in-game settings that create a larger workload than your hardware can handle.
Games didn’t invent the frames per second measurement: Movies are traditionally projected at 24 FPS, meaning 24 still images flash by onscreen every second. In games, though, 24 FPS can look choppy and unnatural.
If you watch a side-by-side comparison of a game running at 30 FPS and 60 FPS, you’ll see the difference immediately: At higher frame rates, the game appears smoother and more lifelike. PC games can often achieve higher frame rates than current-generation console titles, but the real advantage of PC gaming is the freedom to tune your settings and find the frame rate that best suits your hardware — especially your monitor.
Your monitor’s refresh rate is a good target for in-game frame rates. If your monitor has a refresh rate of 60Hz, you won’t see benefits from frame rates over 60 FPS, as your monitor won’t update fast enough to keep up with the output of your GPU. However, if you already own a display with a higher refresh rate, such as 144Hz, you’ll see immediate onscreen benefits from higher frame rates.
So how do you achieve better frame rates? Getting a faster CPU, more RAM, or a newer graphics card may help. However, you should update software and adjust settings first to see if you can achieve higher frame rates without major changes to your system.
Let’s walk through some potential solutions.
General Fixes
Close Background Processes
First, make sure no other programs are slowing things down. Open the Task Manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC), then click the CPU and Memory tabs to check whether anything is using up large chunks of your CPU or RAM (for instance, a web browser with dozens of tabs open).
Update Games
Next, make sure the game itself is up to date. Especially early in the life cycle of a game, developers release patches with major performance impacts. Enable automatic updates to ensure you don’t miss one.
Update Drivers
Update your drivers. New graphics drivers for both discrete GPUs and integrated GPUs are released regularly to optimize for recent games. Use the manufacturer’s utility to download these drivers.
If you’re using an Intel® Core™ processor (4th Gen or later) with integrated graphics, try looking up the game on gameplay.intel.com to find recommended settings. Utilities for discrete graphics cards may also automatically detect installed games. If your graphics utility has this capability, make sure that it has recognized the game you’re trying to play. This may result in immediate performance gains.
Repairing Installs
If performance issues in one game are unusually severe, try repairing the installation. In Steam, you can do so by opening the Library tab, right-clicking the game, and then clicking “Properties.” Once in the Properties window, click the “Local Files” tab, then “Verify Integrity of Game Files.”
In-Game Settings
Left: Anti-Aliasing Off | Right: Anti-Aliasing On
Most games will automatically test your PC after installation and assign custom settings. However, if you’re reading this article, you might have found that those settings don’t give frame rate the priority you’d like. Here are a few common settings to turn down (or off) for measurable performance boosts.
Shadow settings may cover a number of shadow mapping techniques with differing performance impact, from CPU-intensive shadow volumes to GPU-intensive techniques like ray tracing, which calculates all the rays emanating from every individual light source. These techniques work to smooth out sawtooth edges, accurately represent the shapes casting shadows, and help shadows match the movements of their source.
Turning up these settings will lead to smoother shadows, but leaving them set to medium or low may lead to frame rate gains with little visible impact in fast-paced titles.
Anti-aliasing (AA) smooths out the jagged edges (an artifact called “aliasing”) that appear on digital objects made out of square pixels. Anti-aliasing techniques take samples of pixels onscreen in order to guess the correct color of neighboring pixels, then fill in the gaps to clean up sawtooth edges.
Reducing the number of samples taken (from 4x to 2x, for example) is a good first step to improve performance. From there, look for AA techniques that the game identifies as less GPU-intensive: FXAA, for example, has a smaller impact than MSAA. If you still run into performance problems, try turning off AA altogether and see if the jagged edges are intrusive.

On The Pulse of Rust
Game running slow? Jerky? It could be your frames-per-second (FPS). This guide will attempt to help you, the player, discover methods for improving your FPS. First and foremost, you must know where you are starting from, a base point to determine if any changes improve your FPS or make it worse.
How to show your current FPS
The second method is to have your Rust client show your FPS.
After starting the Rust client, select F1 and go to the console screen.
Type “perf 1” (without the quotes) and hit ENTER.
Once you connect to a server, your FPS will be shown in the lower left corner, in a large white font. This is only for Rust and will not be shown for other games.
Causes of poor FPS.
There can be many overlapping causes for poor FPS, but hardware is the number one cause for low FPS. Upgrading your CPU, memory size or Graphics processor can have a MAJOR impact on your FPS and overall game play. If you can afford to go better, do so. If not, let us look at what can be done.
Getting Started
Start by closing other programs on your machine (a fresh reboot is never a bad idea). Next, set the game graphics settings to mid-range values. To make changes press the ESC key. Do this the first time before joining a server. Then select the options tab (looks like a gear). Here you will find five tabs labelled OPTIONS, GRAPHICS, INPUT, AUDIO and PERFORMANCE.
Three of these tabs, OPTIONS, INPUT and AUDIO, are mostly personal preferences. These settings have negligible effect on FPS. So let’s go over the important tabs, their options and suggested starting points. Change your settings to the low settings shown in parentheses after each item.
Graphics Tab
Graphics settings
Please note, the settings in the images do not reflect the highest performance, these are examples of the options.
Depth of Field (OFF): Turn this off. Causes blurring around edges that can be VERY annoying..
Ambient Occlusion (OFF)
Anti-aliasing (ON)
High Quality Bloom (OFF)
Lens Dirt (OFF)
Sun shafts (OFF)
Sharpen (OFF)
Vignet (OFF)
Color Grading (OFF)
Graphics Quality (0)
Water Quality (0)
Max Shadow Lights (0)
Shader Level (100)
Draw Distance (1500) don’t go lower than 1000
Shadow Cascades (No Cascades)
Shadow Distance (100)
Anisotropic Filtering (1)
Parallax Mapping (0)
Performance Tab
Particle Quality (0)
Object Quality (0)
Terrain Quality (0)
Grass Quality (0)
Decor Quality (0)
Now you can join a server. Start with a no-pop or low-pop server. Build a small building and get inside. Do this so that you will be safe when you are in the menu making changes. But, realize this is Rust, and anything can happen.
It is recommended that you only make one change at a time. Then go play for a few minutes and see how the change affects your FPS and game play. Obviously if the change causes your FPS to drop dramatically, change it back. Many of these options are sliders, so if increasing something causes issues, try decreasing. Always try small increments at first.
This guide cannot cover every possible issue or every possible solution. Each computer, and its associated hardware and software create unique systems. Rust is still in active development and optimization is an ongoing process. Here’s the good news: This is only temporary. Once enough features are in and more things become finalized, they will put more focus on optimization and this puppy should run smooth as gravy (or something like that).
More things to try
First and foremost make sure everything is updated, both Windows side and driver side.
Make sure you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7 or newer.
Make sure you are using your dedicated GPU, not an integrated GPU.
Using under 8GB of ram is NOT recommended.
Check your drivers manually to make sure they are updated, you can’t always rely on an automatic system to update.
Check your temperatures, high temperatures may lead the thermal throttling.
Close background applications that you aren’t using.
Even if you are on a desktop make sure Windows power settings are set to “high performance”.
Use task manager to measure RAM usage in game, as other programs outside of rust can cause memory leaks, even things like network driver applications and the like can cause them.
Use “perf 2” in console to see accurate fps and memory usage in game (memory usage is only for the assets loaded for that game instance, rust uses memory for bootstrapping and the like, but in game is where the leaks occur).
Change your graphics settings in game as apposed to just from the dropdown menu as it gives more options and tends to be more reliable (you can use console commands as well to change them, which I will cover further in the list).
Ensure all your hardware is compatible and actually works.
Try running rust in a lower resolution using the drop down menu.
Use the “fps.limit 0” without quotes to remove unintentional FPS limits.
Use ‘dev.netgraph 1″ in console to see your bandwith usage and packet loss percentage (use “dev.netgraph 0” to turn off the overlay).
If you are having network lag make sure you aren’t still populating the server lists in the background.
Use the command “global.timewarnings true” to have the console print any warnings related to loading times and the like in console.
Use the command “net.log true” to enable your client to save a network info log file in your game directory.
Turn down your animation quality and other settings (type “find animation” in console to see a list of animation variables).
Type “find graphics” in console to see all graphics variables and what they are set to, to verify changes were saved, or there isn’t an unlisted graphics option you want to change.
Type “find terrain” and “find audio” to see all terrain variables and audio options.
Save any console command changes to your config using “writecfg” in console (saves the vast majority of changes but some things won’t be saved, mainly overlay stuff like perf 2)
If you are stuck at receiving data for a long time, or some items are glitched out on your character, have a friend or admin kill your sleeper with all the glitched out items on it to fix the problem (usually fixes it anyway).

If you use a Windows computer for gaming, you don’t necessarily need to upgrade to an expensive gaming computer to enhance your gaming experience.
Any Windows user out there can readily optimize their current PC for gaming by applying just a few tips and tricks.
How to optimize a Windows PC for gaming
Whether it involves accessories, like hooking up an Ethernet cable, or making your play experience more minimalistic by muting, disabling, and closing superfluous programs, there’s almost always an easy and accessible way to make gaming on Windows better.
Make sure your device has a good CPU and graphics card
The CPU, your computer’s central processing unit, is essentially the brain of your Windows PC. There are two major types of CPUs: Intel processors and AMD.
There’s an ongoing debate about which processor is superior, although the general consensus lately has favored AMD in the price and power department.
You also want to ensure your device has a good GPU (graphics processing unit) so that your PC has no problem handling a high frame rate for smooth video with gaming. A good baseline is 8 GB.
For your graphics card, which contains the GPU, AMD and Nvidia are the two major manufacturers. Just like with CPU, there’s a back and forth as to which brand makes the better graphics card.
If you’re a desktop Windows gamer and have the luxury of mixing and matching an AMD CPU with a Nvidia graphics card , you should go that route for the most power for the price.
Keep your graphics drivers up to date through Device Manager
Keeping your graphic drivers updated will fix and prevent bugs, and have your CPU running well, properly cooled, and power efficient, making for more optimized gaming on your Windows PC.
You can keep your graphics drivers up to date through Device Manager in Windows.
Once you’re in your PC’s Device Manager, go to “Display adapters” and find your graphics card, then right-click and select “Update driver,” and follow the onscreen prompts.
Connect to the internet with an Ethernet cord rather than Wi-Fi
When you play games, there’s a concept called your “ping,” which refers to latency. Latency is the time it takes your data to be sent from your PC to an internet server and back to the PC.
The lower your latency the better, and you can ensure the lowest possible by hardwiring an Ethernet cable into your PC.
It might feel old-fashioned but in this case, the more modern solution of Wi-Fi is less optimal when it comes to gaming.
Mute notifications to limit distraction and enhance performance
Frequent notifications while gaming aren’t just a visual and auditory distraction — they can also hamper your PC’s performance.
Disable sticky and toggle keys
A keyboard and mouse is one big reason PC gaming touts superiority over the console.
So there’s nothing worse than when your Windows keyboard seems to have a mind of its own and betrays you during a match.
However, you can prevent your keyboard from making unexpected and baffling decisions that don’t seem to be guided by your fingers by disabling sticky keys and toggle keys.
On a laptop, plug it in and make sure it’s on the highest power setting
When gaming on a Windows laptop, generally, it’s ideal to have your device connected to a power outlet. That’s particularly true considering you should be using the most powerful — and thus battery draining — settings on your laptop for optimal gaming.
You can make sure your laptop is set to the highest power settings by accessing “Power Options” from the taskbar. In particular, make sure that your graphics and processor are set to 100% power.
Close unneeded programs
Running extra programs in the background of Windows is a clear and present way to suboptimize your gameplay.
Luckily there’s an easy fix for Windows users: Hit “Ctrl” + “Alt” + “Delete,” then select the Task Manager. Right-click on any programs that you don’t need to run your game, and select “End task.”
Modify a game’s settings
Your Windows PC can run some seriously gorgeous graphics and expansive games, and most games will automatically configure the best graphics settings.
However, you might not actually want the best graphics possible if your bigger concern is low latency and seamless frame rate. The solution? Manually change the in-game settings to be a lower resolution.
Changing these settings will vary from game to game. But generally, you’ll want to set the resolution to a lower number, or to a graphics setting like “low” versus “high” or “ultra.”
Fixing Flickering and Other Graphics Setting Problems
Starting my first game of No Man’s Sky was a chore, so I decided to share the things that I tried before finally getting it to work in both fullscreen (at least a resemblance to it) and without flickering. I could not have both. I wanted away from the windowed mode the game defaulted to. When I changed that, I experienced flickering like I’d never seen in such an expensive game.
Once that was fixed, I had to get over the hurdles of stuttering while playing the game. For some players the stuttering may work itself out after playing for a time as it evidently has something to do with shader caches (and will be fixed in a patch).
Stuck on Start Screen: Press and Hold E – a lot of people get stuck sitting on the loading screen, being expected to press and hold ‘E’ at time of release and do not realize it.
Can’t Change Graphics Settings
First, know that changing graphics settings requires you to hold the mouse button down while hovering over the option you want to change. The game will require a restart. This is where you may run into trouble if you’re unlucky.
Graphics Settings are found in the No Man’s Sky/Binaries/Settings folder. Look for the TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML file
If you Can’t Get In Game to Change Graphics Settings
You should find your game in the /steamapps/common/No Man’s Sky/Binaries/SETTINGS/ folder where you installed the game. In there, is one with ‘Graphics’ in the name. Edit this with a text editor.
The flickering issue I had when switching to fullscreen or borderless windowed mode made the game impossible to play. Some players report fixing it by removing the steam overlay.
Flickering
Fullscreen and borderless window both caused flickering for me, so I ultimately had to find a workaround. I tried several things before finally fixing my flicker issue, though the game settings matched my desktop resolution:
- Change Resolution – Setting the game’s resolution to something different from my desktop default was what fixed the flickering issue for me and allowed me to play fullscreen. If you’re set at 1920×1080 and your monitor supports it, you could try 2560 and 1440 in width and height. If your monitor doesn’t support 1440p, 1280 x 720 may work until a patch that fixes the flickering issue comes along, though it certainly would suck to resort to that. Find your monitor’s supported resolutions that are in the correct aspect ratio.
- Steam Overlay – Some players report issues with the steam overlay. Go to steam > settings > In-game and untick show steam overlay while in-game.
- Vsync/Gsync – in the settings file I mentioned, you may be able to turn these off (write false) and fix the issue.
- Fullscreen/Borderless – Setting fullscreen to false and borderless to true would give you a windowed borderless mode.
- Increase Framerate – Don’t do this with flickering issues, as it’ll just flicker faster and cause a potential headache. When you’re done, you can set the max framerate to something much higher than the default 30 FPS.
Fixing Stuttering
Many players report issues with stuttering in No Man’s Sky, despite their PC being up to spec. The usual ensure your drivers up to date doesn’t work for everyone, so you may have to play around with settings. Borderless window mode works for a lot of people to reduce stuttering, assuming you can get it to work without flickering!
Try also going into your graphics card’s control panel and the 3d settings. From there you can try setting vsync to adaptive. It may also help to use triple buffering, but your results may vary.
If none of this works for you, consider checking out this post on reddit where users have written a lot about problems and what settings worked for them..
I know these things will not fix every issue for every player but I hope it helps a few people to get started playing No Man’s Sky.
The Settlers : Heritage of Kings – History Edition
This is a very common problem. For some reason, the original creators of the game thought it was a good idea to save people the effort of finding the highest settings their system could handle by blacking out options that they thought would pose problems.
However, they had never accounted for computers as powerful as those we have today, resulting in the game inccorectly asserting that our pcs are trash and therefore blacking out the highest settings.
I contacted Ubisoft customer support about this some time ago but I don’t think they have listened, as was to be expected. I’ll try again, though, and should anything come out of it, I’ll let you know.
The problem is not from nVidia, it is from UBI since the game was released, who know the problem and do not want to solve it.
UBI must be solved the problem, not a specific version of the Nvidia drivers.
but that IS the problem. And just saying: Ubisoft is NOT the developer. It is only the publisher; Blue byte studios is the developer blame them.
And I said a solution and a way how to fix this and what the actuall problem is. so YOU know what the issue is.
And not like you blaming them I tried already to fix it by doing reverse engineering stuff hoping that it works and I am still not done yet.
I have to rectify you, the developer is “Ubisoft Blue Byte”. Since 2001 Blue Byte is part of UBI, is not an independent company, so UBI has responsibility for it.
nVidia is now in version 4259 (minor version), how many years does it need to reach 5000?
The solution I posted for those who have 2 graphics cards is the best solution in those cases. The graphics control center can also be used, but I haven’t investigated it. Those who have only a graphics card will greatly appreciate a user patch that fixes it, sure.
And it is not the only bug in the game, at least in the Spanish version. I have had to modify some files in order to pause the game, and in the second expansion many voices of the characters from the first expansion are not included. I don’t know if the other languages have the same problems.
I’m not very happy with UBI, no.
Then type to their support or to the Nvidia support so they can take care of it.
(Nvidia is a very competent support as I found out once again yesterday, maybe you can ask them or give them a hint on that so they could fix it by just avoiding these numbers)
I just made clear what the problem is. You can decide how you wanna fix it.
I’ve contacted UBI support 4 times, the first time years ago, with the Pause key bug and some sound problems. I’m still waiting for a answer. Silence is the answer. And I know that I’m not the only one who has written to the Support about the graphic settings problem.
I’ve also contacted nVidia (yeah, they are very competent support). They can’t fix it because it’s not a graphic driver bug, it’s bad developer programming and UBI must solve the problem.
Here’s an overview of how to find device specification requirements, versions, and languages available for Windows 11. Read here for more information on system requirements and information on how some PCs might be able to update or change settings to meet the requirements.
System requirements
These are the minimum system requirements for installing Windows 11 on a PC. If your device does not meet these requirements, you may not be able to install Windows 11 on your device and might want to consider purchasing a new PC. If you are unsure whether your PC meets these requirements, you can check with your PC Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or, if your device is already running Windows 10, you can use the PC Health Check app to assess compatibility. Note that this app does not check for graphics card or display, as most compatible devices will meet those requirements listed below.
Your device must be running Windows 10, version 2004 or later, to upgrade. Free updates are available through Windows Update in Settings>Update and Security.

Keeping Windows 11 up-to-date
As part of the effort to continually improve the Windows experience, software updates and fixes are created and released. These updates are delivered to your device during the device’s supported lifecycle.
Ensuring that your device is kept up to date is important for your device security and functionality. With an internet connection, Windows 11 will periodically check for updates so you don’t have to (ISP fees might apply). You can check to see if there are any pending or optional updates available for your device by going to Settings | Update & Security | Windows Update.
It is important to ensure you have enough free storage space to install updates and you may need to check to see if your hardware is still supported by your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
More information on storage space requirements to keep Windows 11 up-to-date
The size of the Windows operating system that comes with your device and the amount of free storage space needed to download and install Windows updates are highly variable as they depend on a variety of factors. Visit here to learn why. The factors that impact the amount of free space needed to take an update include: the versions of Windows previously installed on the machine; the amount of free storage space available from Windows files to reuse, such as the virtual memory pagefile or hibernation file; which applications are installed on your device; and how those applications store data. When updating, Windows will attempt to free up enough space automatically and to guide you through freeing up even more if the automatic cleanup is not sufficient. You can also take steps on your own to free up space.

Nothing is more important than a PUBG Mobile chicken dinner. Especially with a new season. It’s warm, filling, and chock full of the protein and vegetable vitamin goodness that fuels our attempts to get another. But when a slight graphical stutter or hideously low frame rate gets in the way of securing the glorious meal of champions, there’s little worse. It’s time to tame those graphical anomalies and increase your PUBG Mobile FPS with this PUBG Mobile 60FPS optimal graphics guide.
Tencent understands why we want graphics options in our games. They allow us to strike that delicate balance between looks and performance. Being a competitive game, it’s generally recommended that you never think of PUBG Mobile as a “pretty” game. You go in there to win, not to enjoy the scenery. And your graphics settings should reflect that want for raw performance.
PUBG Mobile “Graphics” Settings Differences
Changing PUBG Mobile graphics settings won’t give you a competitive edge. Not in the way you might think, anyway.
It’s true that in the early days of PUBG it was possible to spot players hiding in bushes by dialing back the settings and culling that pesky bush from existence, but after nipping that particular design flaw in the bud, PUBG Mobile’s numerous graphics options won’t ever reduce or increase draw distance (how far you can see). Instead, it’s more about altering the distance in which low-res assets are swapped out for better quality stuff, adding shadows for realism, and improving the overall lighting effects. Nothing that will help you spot a target before they spot you.
What these settings can do is more closely synchronize the speed of the game to your reactions. While we’ll be going on about how you should set your Graphics to “Smooth” and Frame Rate to “Ultra” no matter what device you’re on, we took screenshots of the game running on “Smooth” and “HDR” through a high-end PC using the Tencent Gaming Buddy emulator to demonstrate how these two extremes compare.
The image looks sharper and crisper as you increase the quality, with shadows being added and lighting being improved, but object render distance stays the same regardless. Turning off anti-aliasing can reduce random stutters and increase overall performance, but shouldn’t have a massive effect on high-end phones. That being said, some players swear that distant moving objects (like players) can be easier to spot with anti-aliasing turned off as the rough jagged edges can stand out.
PUBG Mobile “Frame Rate” Settings
Even with the Graphics settings pushed down to low, you might hit the FPS limit imposed by the Frame Rate setting on the same menu. The list below details the maximum FPS allowed by each setting. You’ll want to aim for 60FPS for that silky smooth experience, but Ultra or High can feel just fine depending on your gaming background.
- Low: 20
- Medium: 25
- High: 30
- Ultra: 40
- Extreme: 60
Professional gamers will tell you how much reaction speed comes into play, and a low framerate is a bottleneck – something that limits their natural ability to play. 60FPS and above is the dream, but most phones, outside of gaming-specific phones like the ASUS ROG and Razer line of devices, can’t even display more than 60FPS due to their 60Hz screens being incapable of refreshing the on-screen image faster than 60 times per second. So unless you’re running something purpose-built for gaming, you’ll want to aim for that 60 FPS cap.
PUBG Mobile 60FPS Settings
With both of these option categories defined and explained, there’s little more to be said than to go low and high at the same time.
Whether you’re running this year’s flagship devices or a 4-year-old hand-me-down, setting PUBG Mobile to “Smooth” graphics and “Ultra” frame rate should net you the best performance you can get. Without turning to more drastic measures, that is. Turning off anti-aliasing should limit any annoying stutters, too, with the lessened burden on your device helping stave off thermal throttling for longer, and keep your battery from draining too fast.
If you want to see exactly how well your game is running, a tool like GameBench on Android can manage that. Just be prepared for a bit of tinkering to set it up – something we’ll detail in a future guide. And if even these settings can’t net you the performance you want, you might want to look into using something like GFX Tool. Just don’t blame us if you get banned for using it.

There’s another popular ARPG coming to mobile, and it ain’t from Blizzard
Last week XD Inc. announced that its upcoming action RPG Torchlight: Infinite would be entering closed beta on January 18th (hey, that’s today). Of course, this is an ARPG similar to the Diablo series, and since Diablo Immortal still isn’t officially out despite being announced four years ago, the developer behind Torchlight: Infinite has a chance to beat Blizzard at its own game, but that all comes down to how well this action RPG plays. Will Torchlight: Infinite be one of Android’s best games, or is this yet another cynically-lazy ARPG designed to make some quick cash on mobile?
This is why I’ve gone hands-on with Torchlight: Infinite in the buildup to its closed beta launching today, all to report my findings. Below I detail precisely what Torchlight fans can expect from the game, covering things like controls, performance, and how it all stacks up to the previous three titles in the series. I even recorded a 30-minute gameplay video to better illustrate how the game plays. So get comfy, as this journey has just begun.
The above gameplay video was recorded by yours truly, and it offers 35 minutes of action that shows off the hero selection (with four heroes to choose from), the game’s graphics settings, the in-game store (so far only cosmetics), as well as a boatload of gameplay, all recorded in 1080p at 60FPS. From the outset, it’s clear the art of Torchlight: Infinite mirrors the cel-shaded look of the first three games, with environments that also match. So If I were only judging the game by how it looks, I’d say it’s a fine continuation of the last three titles. XD Inc. has done a good job with the graphics.
What’s really interesting about the graphics is that you can play using the OpenGL renderer or test out the beta Vulkan implementation. I chose to go with Vulkan on the highest graphics settings possible on a ROG 5 and could easily hold 60FPS at 1080p. So performance is on point, even with the beta renderer.
As far as the controls go, the closed beta for Torchlight: Infinite only supports touchscreen play. I tested both a corded controller and a wireless unit over bluetooth. Neither worked. So, for now, it seems clear the game is indeed designed around touchscreen controls. Luckily these controls work well (though there is no way to customize them). They are responsive, and even though many mobile ARPGs like to clutter the screen with buttons, so far, Torchlight: Infinite offers a clean and clear UI, with the thumbstick on the left below your objective and five attack buttons on the right. All of the typical free-to-play alerts are hidden behind a single icon in the upper left, and I genuinely hope they remain there.
Beyond the graphics, performance, and controls is where things start to get a little muddy. All of the typical alerts you’d expect from a mobile free-to-play ARPG developed in China are still here, even if they are hidden better than most games. Sixteen buttons are hidden in total, ranging from a community button to mail alerts to a guide for the game, along with all of your character and gear settings. But at least there’s a single place to handle all of your alerts and upgrades, instead of a thousand buttons scattered across the screen.
