These FPS Settings Will Give You an Unfair Advantage in Dragonflight - Must Watch!

[@Xenrobby]

Wow! Fantastic video man! I got an extra 20 FPS in Val and went from roughly 100FPS to 249FPS while questing in other zones and the game still looks and feels great!! Thank you!

[@stillsolo]

Glad I could help!

[@babkaka3ne]

Never combine MXAA with those crappy other options especially like FXAA that will blurry your image significantly, you just use MXAA and don't combine

[@aldebaran1977]

wow. I live in the country and have to use a wifi jet pack for internet. For years i've had FPS issues, averaging 30-40 fps and avoid major cities at all costs due to extreme lag issues. While this doesnt completely fix some issues, its a 1000x better than how it was running before. My FPS has jumped to an average of 130-140 FPS! and it still looks great. I'm totally amazed! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! UPDATE: After going to differnet zones, i notice my fps now averages between 150-180! The increase i received has literally been a game changer! ❤

[@stillsolo]

Glad it helped!

[@linusklasson5354]

earned a like and a sub, used this for cata classic and went from 120fps to around 300fps and it feels so smooth this was so helpful!

[@VS666]

Pretty awesome how many settings there are in this game I still remember back in the day your graphic setting was maybe five to eight buttons that actually made a difference

[@DontrelleRoosevelt]

It's tedious and NOT fun!

[@wladynoszhighlights5989]

Just leave it on default then, those extended settings are for people who want to experiment and minmax to get better perfomance on worse computers @@DontrelleRoosevelt

[@looloo6615]

not even joking, playing with a GTX 3090, struggling in ashran with 15fps -.- gone to 165 everywhere with half of these settings, particularly the SSAO disabled....and using direct 12, insane, thanks man!

[@stillsolo]

No problem!

[@JboneApocolypz]

This saved me from uninstalling this game I've played for 20 years. THANK YOU!!!!

[@DoinkFPS]

bro i wish i would've cllipped the moment i pressed apply. the change was INSANE. thank you so much :)

[@stillsolo]

Glad it helped!

[@TheDracopire]

Have the same card, these settings took me from 60-70 all the way to 140-180 in some areas. Appreciate it.

[@stillsolo]

No problem! Glad it helped.

[@levend62]

mine went from 140 to 298 :) another great video thanks mate

[@steventomson9749]

Awesome video and guide mate. I have the same card as you and followed your instructions on this video and my FPS went from 60 to 144. I'm so happy

[@stillsolo]

Glad it helped

[@nurfed1016]

I figured it out on the part where you select your graphics card it’s at auto selected and an option for your graphics card every time I chose my exact graphics card instead of leaving it at auto selected it would freeze so 😂took me like 4 or 5 times to realize that I had to go through each individual setting to see what was causing the game to freeze so if anyone else goes through this make sure they leave it at auto selected instead of getting annoyed like I did but those settings are awesome and helped thank you for the video! This is the original guy who asked about it freezing was on my other KZbin channel.

[@stillsolo]

Oh good im glad you figured it out!

[@kevinpachuau3066]

Thanks straight to the point, my fps went to 70-110fps in private server

[@jurismihailvos6225]

BTW if you turn off projected textures you wont see mechanics on the ground

[@stillsolo]

This is true also wild in raids.

[@gazzam3172]

never turn projected textures off ! again as you wont see some marks on the ground that u may need to avoid

[@gazzam3172]

spell density should be essential as you will miss important spells to avoid

[@MrFelkuro]

Amazing, you earned a sub my man! you bumped me from about 100 fps on a 1440 ultrawide to about 250 fps 😂

[@stillsolo]

That's huge! Glad I could help

[@vivelafrance8400]

What’s your screen refresh rate?

[@jesuschrist2284]

The fps cap in the ui seems to not work since 10.1. also its wow, a potato could run this game.

[@sku11dugsWoW]

I'm getting about 30fps on a 3080ti on low settings lol. Trying to solve. So far nothing.

[@jello2tube]

@@sku11dugsWoWdo you have Addons? Allthethings addon is an fps drag. Instant boost.

[@gazzam3172]

paarticle density should be as high as your system can handle, you'll miss incoming stuff if its too low

[@yuxxi1267]

omg you're a hero :D worked with TWW :) THANK Y O U

You're welcome!

[@HolisticHabits88]

Im tired of screen tearing i have 60hz monitor & nvidia not sure what to set in 3d or ingame to fix this. gtx 1060 6gb - fx8350 -16 gb ram. Vsync adaptive, fast, half?

[@mia92b]

you didnt explain any differences between antialiasing techniques and why you choose to go with fxaa instead cmaa or cmaa2.

[@FEETLOCK]

dude my game looks fucking unreal after doing this! thank you!!!!!!

[@Frostruin]

This made my game look and feel so much better! Awesome stuff man!

[@keats27]

Fixed my crash issues, and I had really low graphics settings to begin with. Need a companion video where you dont explain it all an djustd go through the settings.

[@6789uiop]

Maybe it’s the wwi but I just reset to default and it looks better and much less laggy. Still 60fps so I’ll try this.

[@oneechannoecchi]

hi i know the video is a bit older etc. but i still have 2 stupid questions :D 1. nothing else was said about the low latency mode, why did you deactivate it ingame and did you say you wanted to go into it later? 2. why is the resample sharpness on your left side 0.2 and on my right side 0.2 :D

[@stillsolo]

I'm going to make a updated video on this

[@BattousaiHBr]

low latency mode disabled is definitely not something you should use. if you have an nvidia GPU, everyone should use Reflex without exception (do not use the Boost option though).

[@pacasasgar]

Why? Does it affect graphics or just input lag?

[@BattousaiHBr]

@@pacasasgarjust input lag. for more information, battle nonsense does great analysis video on input lag tech.

[@pacasasgar]

Thank you man!@@BattousaiHBr

[@JasperBakker-o3q]

Dude this helped me so much!

[@stillsolo]

Glad to hear it!

[@Shuflin]

tysm, my dude!

[@stillsolo]

No problem!

[@Muppet-kz2nc]

kinda perfunctory if you cant quantify the average FPS cost per setting

[@geedj6249]

So from around 45 to 67 fps in valdraken to a stable 73 lowest to around 100 and a average of 85 can't complain thanks

[@Sh1nGaming]

Thanks for explaining each settings! 👍Really helpful!

[@stillsolo]

Your welcome dude!

Thanks, will do!

[@exodusjosh]

This is pretty good info. Thanks for the video.

Anytime.

omg 10/10 this helped so much. the last video I watched made everything look murky for me.

[@yagahasad5317]

Allah senden razı olsun kardeşim

[@SteelPhoenix78]

What would you say is the most important setting or settings to tone down if the only place I'm seeing a noticeable framerate drop in the Dragon Isles is while Dragonriding?

[@stillsolo]

I'd say view distance

[@Juliusz20]

Thank you for guide its help a lot.

[@stillsolo]

Glad to hear that!

[@luigirankone]

tysm! works awesome for me

[@HalfinchLonomia]

It seems you don't know how amd's fsr works. You should really look into it for massive fps boosts.

[@mossad_agent946]

enlighten me, im also running AMD

[@Svarvarn]

The video helped but i have the same graphics card as you and my fps is still shit now in dragonflight, u probably got a better pc than me if we don't look at graphics card but i just wanted to ask, great day :)

[@zBelialz]

Hey mate, nice video, now im gonna try it coz igot a bad fps problem in raid... MY set up is Ryzen 9 5900x, Rtx 3080 12gb and Aorus x 570 elite. With this set up i have problem when use bl in raid Mithic 20 player Hero 30, i play with 44 dps and this is so frustating coz my guild friend with 1070 play with so much fps....

[@CDuff86]

"Turn everything off and the game will run better". Sure, and it'll also look like shit. This is gimping fidelity for framerate. I never understood this.

[@klixxo7]

Nice video. If your GPU doesn’t support DX12, should you leave it on DX12 in the settings, or change it to DX11?

[@Toffetoffe85]

change to DX11

[@gazzam3172]

if it dont support it,it aint going to work now is it?

[@nifoughazi1312]

Bro 6700xt + 5700g 16gb ram ssd 1tb good for dragonflight ?

[@stillsolo]

Yup

[@philipwebb4012]

ty so much been stuck at 60 fps for sometime now im at and above 200fps

[@stillsolo]

Thats awesome!

[@mrbluesky3972]

thank u so much

[@stillsolo]

You are most welcome

[@brandonheath6713]

There's definitely some stuff in here that is just not really accurate. Low latency more for example does not impact performance for 99% of people. You'd have to have a weird setup for reflex to negatively impact fps. Also protected textures is 100% unnecessary and can significantly impact fps.

[@stillsolo]

👀

[@bizabul]

thank you so much.

[@JamesEricksen-h8u]

Lol VRS= variable rate shading= the single best thing you can do to INCREASE fps.

[@dyyylllaannn]

[@quinlan___8900]

thanks man i get way more fps now

[@stillsolo]

No problem!

[@bestlDUDUlever]

Pin this message if you want OC. Since 10.2 renderscale is bugged and causes roughlt 40% fps drop if u set the scale to 98% stay at 100% everyone

[@mordahstar]

I changed those settings to the way you did yours but my game froze I did this twice and I wasn't sure what option might cause it to freeze if its not made for those settings because I have a high end pc too both times I clicked apply and it froze do you know what might cause this if you mess with graphic settings?

[@stillsolo]

Honestly I don't know but I would try starting with low settings. If not do you use an Nvidia video card? You can use the geforce experience app and under the details section of wow you can use that program to optimize the settings.

[@skoomd4447]

you can't hit low on all settings a be fine lol, swirlys no longer show up at that lvl

[@ferhat192]

If I don't set my graphics card "xfx rx6700rx" graphics to low, the fans work very loudly, my processor is "amd readon 5600" screen 2k, will it work properly and silently if I adjust this display for this system? The world and reid are very busy with the bosses, will your settings work?

[@stillsolo]

They might you just have to mess with them.

[@ferhat192]

@@stillsolo ok thanks for the answer.

[@dyyylllaannn]

look into undervolting your gpu. the fans working hard also might be due to hw your s are wired. if they are all plugged into a fan controller into the cpu _fan header the motherboard will spin up all of the fans as if they are the cpufan. you need the case fans in their own fan header on mobo. tune curve in BIOS

[@gazzam3172]

you see more with a higher field of view so its 90 a no brainer? you'll see mobs and spells coming at you sooner!

[@danielnator123456]

Thanks

[@stillsolo]

No problem

[@Chitslee]

Boosted my FPS from 60 to 130/150

[@stillsolo]

Not bad!

[@Poisontooth]

I get worse FPS with Direct X 12 then I do with Direct X 11, why is that?

[@stillsolo]

You may have a weaker or older cpu

[@biosyn-ab4261]

I'd also suggest disabling Vsync cause it caps your fps to your refresh rate

[@stillsolo]

Big true

[@pacasasgar]

But it increase input lag. If you experience lag, you should disable this. New monitors/graphic cards nowadays have options to cap refresh rate without input lag anyways.

[@TCOYChannel]

huge extra 60 FPS out of it

[@gazzam3172]

Fxaa makes things blurry as fook

[@anthonyjones5047]

dude just took me to 20-25 fps to 140+

[@stillsolo]

Thats a huge improvement!

[@dallash1747]

My game froze up after applying the settings lmao

[@stillsolo]

:O

[@Zedaso]

Damn, thanks. Returned to WoW recently and was shocked to be at 90 fps with a 3080. Copied this and went from 90 to 230, rarely go below 220. Appreciate it! In case anyone sees this and wonders why I got such a dramatic improvement; my resolution scale was set to 200, RTX was on and everything was maxed out.

Ty m8 got 35 fps mor

[@stillsolo]

Glad to hear it!

[@jameswyatt6648]

with the graphics card he has following his setting sare useless it would be great for a low end graphics card to a point but not having vrs on and not having low latency on you would be gimpign yourself even more and putting added stress on a low end graphics card. what i dont get is why usign a 3080 he would run on such low settings O.O

[@stillsolo]

Because I like having high fps all the time.

[@ranz1337]

kinda useless video for what the fishy title is aiming for. There is no "unfair advantage" in settings that everyone can change.

[@dyyylllaannn]

well, the unfair advantage is that most people DON'T tune graphics for visual clarity. people just set their shit to 1 and play runescape on a $1000 machine

[@MrSuperChar]

​@@dyyylllaannn and other settings just to the minimum

[@grimspur]

Pretty sure the core game only runs at 60fps regardless of how many frames your computer is able to push. So set up the game so it never drops below 60fps in the most intense areas like say the boss room in alterac valley. Then simply lock your max frame rate to 60 and bam butter smooth no tearing no stutters no vsync/gsync needed because you never drop below 60fps and the game is capped at 60. As long as your monitor is capable of 60 fps it doesn't matter if it is a higher refresh rate monitor because it is only receiving 60fps signal. Gsync/vsync can cause input latency and that's what you don't want. You can get the game looking very good never dropping below 60fps with a mid range pc. 😉 Don't let that pesky gsync get in the way of your perfectly timed leap out of the fire in raid.

[@dyyylllaannn]

source for this?

[@philipmanetas]

You have no idea what you are talking about. The whole point of fps is to match your monitor hz. So that is your goal, not capping it to 60!

[@grimspur]

If you are able to hold 120fps in all situations like raiding and 40 man battle grounds for example and the game still looks pretty sure go ahead. But I would wager most people have mid range to high mid range pc's. That means they are not capable of holding those frames with medium to high settings and are relying on gsync or vsync to smooth out the jumps and dips in frame rates. This process can affect command response time from when you press the key or click the mouse to when the pc registered that click and then sent it to the server. So are you better off with a locked in 60 fps that never dips or jumps with no gsync or vsync needed while still maintaining mid to high settings? Or getting as much fps as you can that's never stable without background processes that slow input commands and your game looks like a turd? Wow is very old and was built to run at 60fps. It looks great at 60fps with no help from background processes. Unless you are running a super high end pc do yourself a favor and take my advice this isn't csgo pro championships and if it was those players never use gsync for the reasons stated above.

[@foogley]

"it's easy to set everything to low and call it a day" proceeds to 10 minutes of setting 99% of settings to low and calling it a day

[@stillsolo]

Not true but okay.
