It is important to optimize your graphics settings on a game like Fortnite to improve your performance. The more FPS you have, the more likely you are to get Victories Royales on your favorite battle royale game.
When playing Fortnite on your PC, the first thing to do before starting a game is to make sure that all your settings are optimized for your configuration. You'll quickly notice that with the right optimization, you'll have an easier time playing the game.
That's why we're going to explain to you step by step how to configure your settings in order to have the most frames per second possible and thus make your experience as smooth as possible.
Optimize Your Fortnite Settings
Once you have launched Fortnite, go to the game settings in the blue square at the top left of your screen and then in the gear that is in light blue at the bottom left, then click on "Settings".Everything will play out on the first screen you find when you enter the settings. Adjust your settings step by step according to our recommendations:
DISPLAY
- Window mode: Fullscreen
- Resolution: 1920x1080 (16:9)
- Vsync: Off
- Frame rate limit: 240 FPS maximum, 144 FPS is correct
- Rendering mode: Performance (lower graphical fidelity)
With Performance Mode, the game's graphics will be sacrificed for FPS. This is best if you want to focus on performance and not aesthetics. If you want
GRAPHICS QUALITY (PERFORMANCE MODE)
- 3D resolution: 100%
- Nanite virtualized geometry: Off
- View distance: Near
- Textures: Low
- Auto download high resolution textures: Off
- High resolution texture reminders: Off
- Meshes: Low
With these settings, even if your PC is not very powerful, you should have at least 100-120 FPS consistently, which is clearly not negligible compared to the limited performance on consoles, smartphones and tablets. If you want to play the game with better graphics and without losing any FPS, though, you'll probably need to get new PC equipment .
