[2024] BEST PC Settings for Last Epoch! (Maximize FPS & Visibility)

hi everybody this is kefan your favorite French Canadian today I'm going to show you how to boost your FPS in lass we're going to start by optimizing windows and after that we will go inside of the game so now the best setting for Windows for gaming so first of all we're going to search for game mode in the search bar make sure that game mode is activated for the past like year it's pretty good uh you're getting a a decent performance and you got to make sure that all your resources are focused on the game that you're playing for the Xbox game bar I still recommend to dis activate this one causing stuttering crashing in some games so I'm not a huge fan of the Xbox game bar and for the capture make sure that the background recording is at off and also the record recorded audio is at off another thing that I recommend it's the hardware accelerated GPU scheduling make sure that you're searching for graphics setting you will need an Nvidia card 1,000 series or more recent it will really help with bottleneck so if you have a 1050 1050 TI 1060 even the 2060 you can expect a nice 2 to 5% boost and also you can expect like less stuttering when you're using that so I really recommend to use that another thing that is really important it's your driver make sure that you have the latest driver from AMD nvdia even intel if you have an igpu on your processor um so for example here with AMD you just click check for update and you're going to show you if you have the latest one you can do the same thing with Nvidia another thing that I can recommend with the um Nvidia and AMD they have an image killing for the past like a couple of month um for from AMD it's called super resolution and for NVIDIA it's NIS I have dedicated video who's going to like show you how to use that and how to configure it but to explain you quickly what it's about uh so you need to enable this so for example I'm playing uh in 2K because my monitor in is in 2K I'm going inside of my game I lower the resolution at 1080P and the software will scale it back at 2K and with this process I can save like 15 20% in my FPS also you can do it if you have like a 4k monitor and you want to do 1080p or 2K uh you can expect a nice boost the image quality will not be the same if you compare with Native but in some game it's working very well and you it's very tough to see the difference so I I recommend to to use it if you're struggling with your FPS so if you have an Nvidia card just go on your Nvidia setting go to control panel open it go to manage 3D setting and just use pretty much this setting that I'm currently using honestly they're pretty much default so the first one that you need to change is your low latency mode if you have this technology make sure that it's at on the other one is your if you want to lock your FPS uh for an example you have like a 17 Herz Monitor and you want to stay in your gsync ring uh range sorry you just put your uh FPS here at like something like 167 something like that you want to be under 170 HZ to always stay in your g-sync range so if you want to do that it will do that for all your game it's a global setting over there so I'm going to unlock it and this is pretty much it if you have access to the change ECC State I recommend to uncheck it this will slow your vram so you don't want to use that for change resolution make sure that you're playing native so your if you have a 2K monitor go with 2K if you have a 1080p monitor go with 1080P and super important look at your refresh rate a lot of people are missing this step they buy like a new screen and by default it's at 60 so use the uh maximum refresh rate that is available on your uh monitor the last parameter will be your g-sync so I recommend if you want to use gsync I recommend to first of all you need to enable it and I recommend to use the enable for window and full screen so if you're playing a game like in borderless mode it will be applied also you can select just one uh display screen depending on whatever if if your second screen is not compatible with g-sync you will just push it to one monitor uh me I'm not using it I have a 49 KN uh for my GPU so I just want to unlock my FPS so in majority of the game I'm getting like 250 FPS and um my monitor refresh rate is at 170 HZ so I just want to lower my input lag so that that's why I just unlock everything but it really depend on your situation so this is pretty much it for NVIDIA another thing that I recommend it's your energy profile so write energy in your search bar go to Power option make sure that you're running something like balance or eye performance um on a desktop computer should not be an issue but if you're playing on a laptop really make sure that you're using that or a special profile for performance uh from your brand like Asus or whatever the thing is sometimes when you you plug your uh PC in the wall unplug using it with the battery sometime it stay at power saver and you don't want to use that when you're playing a game so super important to be plugged in and also uh to use a proper uh performance profile another thing that I can recommend it's the intelligence then bilus cleaner this is a software made by the guy from ddu um it's it's pretty amazing honestly um it will help if you don't have a lot of ram in your PC so if you have 4 gig of RAM 8 gig 12 gig after that you should be fine Windows is doing the job properly so it will free memory and it's going to make sure that it optimize your standby list so what I recommend normally it's look at your total memory here in my case it's 32 just divided by two so for me it's 16 just press start and it will run automatically and you just lower the software like that and you're going to make sure it's optimized so it's a really good software and also it helps a little bit with uh stuttering so I really recommend to use that one last thing is um I have dedicated video on my Channel about overclocking CPU overclocking GPU depending on your brand and stuff and it's pretty good because it there are basic overclocking guide I don't touch voltage so it's pretty safe you can expect sometime 2% to 10% boost in your FPS depending on your termo depending on your component but it's it's something that you need to look at too if you want to optimize your PC um for the best performance so now let's go inside the game so now inside of the game so Master quality you don't need to touch it because we're going to customize all the parameter over there for display mode I really recommend to go with full screen border less was causing me some random issue with my FPS FPS drops stuttering and stuff like that for the screen resolution I recommend to go native don't lower your resolution over there just go with your native it's a bit a bomber that we don't have any dlss or FSR inside of the game so right now no upscaling technique vertical thing I'm not using it I don't want to add any input lag when I'm playing the game you can use other technology like free sync or G sync and even you're not playing valorant so it's not that bad if you have like had any input lag in this game so if you don't like those steering line when you're playing definitely activate your vsync I unlock my FPS so I don't limit it uh I can recommend to limit your FPS in the case that you're playing on some kind of like laptop you have thermal issue you just have like a 60 HZ monitor sometimes it's good just to lock it at 60 you will have a better stable uh FPS I limit my FPS when the game is in the background so when I H Tab and stuff like that shadow quality after that shadow have a lot of different bracket this one is pretty huge Ultra to very low you can expect 20% boost in your FPS I recommend something like lower medium if you want to keep a good descent quality in your image I want to mention I'm going to tell you which paror will Prov provide you most of your FPS but each person is different with different CPU gpus so it really depend what you need do you need them just to improve your FPS uh your because you want 144 because you have a 144 Herz monitor or you just need your 60 and you're struggling so this is pretty much it so my recommendation start at low don't click detail uh detail Shadow is pretty huge high performance impact it touch like small object grass you have Shadows over there and you will see that it's going to drop your FPS a lot antialiasing you have a couple of one I recommend FXAA ta is too blurry for me FXAA you're going to um gain like 4% in your FPS you can even deactivate it if you want grass density I recommend to go with low 4% different between both and also you stabilize your FPS onestly at low reflection I recommend to go minimum so very low this one is pretty huge you will not see a big increase in your FPS when you're just playing but it's more you're going to stabilize your FPS when you have like a lot of reflection and be conclusion I recommend to go with medium I'm not a huge fan at low and very low the game looks very flat for sure you're going to save another 5% if you go at very low but medium seems to be a good balance between performance and good image Quality volumetric Lighting I recommend to go with with low a nice 7% boost over there not a huge deal with very low 1% difference so that's why I recommend to go with low over there screen space reflection a bit like volum matric not a huge difference between very low and low so if over there you're going to save 5% in your FPS and the last one is steering quality not a huge impact on your FPS more about your vram so medium even I just tested out uh it's not a huge deal it's like 1% for each bracket so really depend on your vram and your GPU that you have so this is pretty much it guys for last EPO on 2024 the game looks and run fine if I compare it like two years ago it's a lot better I hope they're going to patch it to have like some kind of upscaler and yeah if you have any question just comment in the YouTube section post me your rig CPU GPU and RAM I will try to help you the best that I can and don't forget to subscribe to the channel peace
