Fortnite DirectX 11 vs DirectX 12 vs Performance Mode (Explained, Compared & Suggestions!)

[@Peezs]

For all the people who are about to comment their specs and ask if Dx 11 or Dx 12 or Performance mode will be better: As I said in the video, you need to try Dx 12 yourself for a few days and see if it's stable. If not, switch back to Dx 11. If both feels roughly the same, stick to dx 11 as it has a lower input delay. Also, I gave a general guide that you can follow based on what GPU you have at around 3:10. Update (Feb 3rd, 2021): Performance mode seems to be more optimized now and can deliver a much smoother experience. If you need more fps and you don't mind the look, I highly recommend switching to it! Side note: -People with less than 8GB of ram will have a "worser" looking performance mode, their builds will look more similar to mobile graphics. In contrast, people with more than 8GB of ram will have a performance mode that looks more similar to mine. -GTX 1660 Is by no means a "low end" card, but when compared to the rest of the RTX lineup, it is indeed in the lower end of the spectrum in Nvidia's lineup. Does that mean that it's bad? No. Is it "low end"? Not necessarily.

Just so we're clear, Fortnite is a very CPU bound game. Ur gpu could be a 1660s but if you have an x3d chip from AMD or a high end i9 say 13th or 14th gen from Intel, then ur game will perform much better than having a 4090 and a an i3, hope this helps

This is so weird to me because I just got back into fortnite and it changed all my previous graphics settings. I was running on dx12 and it gave me nothing but bad looking images and input lag, then I tried dx11 and I was back to 144 fps. Keep in mind I have a 3070 with a ryzen 7 5800x. In theory I should be able to use dx12 and it look and feel better than dx11 but it’s the opposite for me.

performance mode was designed mainly for laptops~ so it sucks that it's not working well with it. Btw ram doesn't matter unless you have less than 8gb, the clock speed also matters.

[@Sakrosankt-Bierstube]

2:20 "no significant boost in fps" while the avg fps ist literally 20-25% higher than DX11 and DX12...

[@Windows__2000]

This is a very inaqurate description of the modes, and it gets a lot of technical aspects wrong, but I guess it gave me what I wanted.

[@WildPile]

I honestly don’t know what’s better. My PC is so freaking weird. I have a Ryzen 2700X with an RTX 2080 Super and 32g of 4600mhz ram running at 3600mhz. Everyone who owns a PC will have a different result than me, but this is what I have experienced. I remember trying Performance mode and it didn’t really improve anything. I only tried it for like an hour or so before I turned it back to DX12. Needless to say I don’t have that much experience with Performance mode as its a 2080. If you buy a 2080 and turn on performance mode, its kind of a waste. There are plenty of cards out there that will benefit more from performance mode than an 80 series card. With DX11, my lobby frame rate is rock solid. When I scroll through the item shop its a smooth locked 120fps (as the lobby can now only run at 120 max), and scrolling through my skins results in no sudden frame rate drops or issues. On the battle bus my frame rate is maxed out at 158 (because thats my g-sync frame rate), but if I fly by Daily Bugle, it tanks to like 90. Any situation where there are a lot of objects in a small place the frame rate dies a slow and painful death. But if its only like 1 house it’s pretty good. DX12 for me stinks like rat piss in the lobby. It stutters like mad when I scroll through the item shop and my skins. It will only smooth out when I’ve been sitting in the lobby for a while and the stuttering comes back anytime I restart the game. It’s very annoying. If anyone has a solution to this or have experienced this and fixed it on DX12 somehow, please feel free to let me know. Other than that, my overall fps on Fortnite is higher on DX12. High object count scenes are a lot more stable, and less complex scenes are the same. It’s just the lobby experience is a lot worse on DX12. I thought it was my ram for the longest time and maybe it is but on DX11, the lobby has no problem running smoothly. Another thing to note is that between DX11 and DX12, my frame rate does act differently. My lows are different and my highs are different consistency wise. I might try turning off DLSS (which believe it or not can actually increase overall fps on some systems) to see if that can fix the problem.

[@Lynxeption]

from what I know DX12 is really dependant on how long you've used it because it stores the textures and models for later use, so when using DX12 you're meant to run it for a while so it fully stores all the necessary data for models and textures making it a whole lot smoother later down the line also DLSS is just a form of Anti-Aliasing that helps avoiding pixelated models and textures, but from what i've seen it's actually an AI made by Nvidia that downscales stuff that's not important to make important things sharper but I haven't tried to play around with the settings that much

[@mk2nathan]

I'm not too sure about that. A 1050 isn't anywhere near that powerful. Maybe you got that fps in the lobby, but you wouldn't get that fps in an actual game. On my old 960 before i upgraded to a 1070, I barely got 140 fps. And a 1050 and 960 are comparable in performance.

i have a Rtx 3060, i7-7700 CPU, and 24gb of ram but i play the game competitively so im looking for the best performance what should i use?

[@creamyscroll2485]

my pc is literally dogwater, I play on a laptop ( normal laptop, not a gaming laptop ) which has ryzen 5 with vega 8, and dx 11 makes my pc run as hot as lava and fps don't even reach 25 that's why I play on performance, but I know I will get a good gaming pc sometime soon, wish me luck if you want to do so.

[@Peezs]

Good luck

Can someone help me I see some people use performance mode and I see how their builds and stuff look but when I got on performance mode my builds literally like mobile literally the same someone help me

[@Peezs]

performance mode can look different depending on how much ram u have

[@Novaa74]

If you have 8Gb RAM or less, builds will look like mobile builds. If you have more then 8Gb RAM, builds will look the same as in the video.

[@cryptic2official]

What settings do I use to get my builds to look like this? It looks a bit different from performance mode

[@kmn.krispin]

Search for bubble builds

[@Decraals]

Hey bud, no hate an all, but you’re said you shouldnt use performance mode, If you did research you would understand it moves some of the Tensity on the GPU and CPU to your ram, so the better or more ram you have your performance mode should run a lot better

[@Peezs]

[@Peezs]

also at the time of recording this, performance mode was very unstable, it provided higher fps but the 1 percent and 0.1 percent lows were horrible

[@wandoba3687]

I Hate how performance doesnt have an option to allow skin physics bc they all look like plastic

[@lol-ws6po]

3:33 😂 this guy doesnt even know what hes talking about, gtx 960 and above are all cards which can easily run fortnite and other games, 1060 and above is probably perfect and are not low end, 1660 is not a bad card

R u talking relative to the company's lineup or to the market. Those are not comparable~

your GPU might not be compatible with Dx 12, so you might need to stick to dx 11. You can reset the fortnite game file or reinstall the game.

bottlenecked by CPU or simply because the scenery isn't demanding. If your usage doesn't change when u uncap ur fps limit, then it could be something else
