The best scaling settings for performance in Fortnite can vary based on your hardware and personal preferences, but generally, players looking to maximize performance typically follow these guidelines:
-
Resolution: Lower your resolution if you're struggling with frame rates. Many competitive players use 1600x900 or even 1280x720 to gain more frames per second (FPS).
-
3D Resolution: Set the 3D resolution to 80-100%. A lower setting can improve performance at the cost of visual fidelity.
-
View Distance: Set this to "Far" for the best balance between performance and visibility.
-
Shadows: Turn shadows off. They can significantly impact frame rates.
-
Anti-Aliasing: Set this to "Off". It can reduce performance as it smooths out edges.
-
Textures: If you have a good graphics card, set textures to "High". Otherwise, "Medium" is a good compromise.
-
Effects: Set this to "Low" to maximize performance.
-
Post Processing: Set this to "Low". It can improve performance while having minimal impact on gameplay.
-
V-Sync: Turn off V-Sync to reduce input lag and improve FPS.
-
Motion Blur: Set this to "Off" to reduce distractions and improve clarity.
Additionally, ensure that your drivers, especially GPU drivers, are up to date. You may also want to optimize your in-game settings based on your personal preferences, as some players prefer higher visual fidelity while others prioritize performance.
