[@1982markjm]

For anyone wondering this does not fix the recent random stuttering issues that started since Dragonflight Pre-Patch. Seems to be either Driver related or the game itself.

I have followed your guide, without changing the game graphics, it boost my fps by 2-3, but once I lower some of effects setting it doubled my FPS immediately lol. it's good to mess around with these settings to find a balance one for each user without sacrifice too much graphic quality

[@aerithcolfer3623]

You have saved my sanity, i was getting 8-16 FPS in dungeons and couldnt for the life of me figure out what on earth was going on.

Followed all your steps and tonight i ran dungeons with 70-120 fps and it was like all my troubles just faded away into nothingness. Thank you good sir!!

clear, easy to follow, effective, and most of all ACCURATE guide. Thank you for this, subbed. :)

[@Adrasser]

Vertical Sync i recomended enable on laptops. Most of laptops get really hot in gaming and have most 60hz monitors. Vectial sync provide to have stable 60fps and not more. In this case latop will not overheat in low usage zones and still have max fps for monitor.

[@ljh6215]

i mean just cap fps at 60 there is a setting for it

[@rebjorn79]

Good one. Please note that if you've set a hard limit of 60 fps for example via other programs or the gpu control panel, it may help you to set it to slightly higher in game. For me i keep the 'target fps' in game at 67, this way the dynamic downscaling will kick in before it hits 60 fps, which is the maximum allowed anyway.

[@kaebogtimater]

1:24 Make sure that the Use browser hardware acceleration when available is unchecked, then you proceed to check it. So which one is it???

Most people recommend leaving it unchecked. If it causes any problems then leave it checked.

Thankyou so much ! after almost giving up after recent updates in game I followed your tutorial to the letter my fps have gone from 54 even less in oribos to 130 in oribos and 170 other places ty ty ty

[@27Zangle]

Great information. In between jobs and was collecting parts for a new build when this decision was made. I decided to just use an old laptop with a crummy GPU that is super low end. I had turned everything down before and undervolted the GPU with great success. Before it was running at 70-73c and with how thing this thing is, it was burning my hand. After having undervolted the gpu, the laptop was down to 64c which is more manageable AND the frame dropped from 74fps to 54fps. Which these tips and not adjusting the graphics from where they were before, the fps increased from 54fps to 77fps constant. Will have a new job within a week or two and then I will resume ordering the remaining components needed for new PC. With that said, I will of course run max graphics AND do these settings for best performance on that machine too.

[@JSCimmo]

Gtx 1080 here with i5 7500. I swear I upped my shadowlands experience from 65 fps to like 120-130 easily. Thanks !! I did all the tricks in this video*

[@MuffinLover1999]

Do we uncheck or check "Use hardware acceleration" ? You say uncheck, but then on the video you check... So i'm confused

[@RageAgainstGOD]

same... and the tool tip also says that it could lower the performance if unchecked... so maybe it should be checked

[@zhyphirus548]

just a tip, keep it checked, if you uncheck that it'll make videos kinda laggy, just be sure to not have it open while playin if you have a bad cpu/ram, otherwise you'll be good.

[@fjer123]

Thanks! Can you make a new one for dragonflight? :) I have fps issues, I tried following most in this video, but stuff have changed in the menues and some options are not there or have changed.

you should always max out spell density to see all active effects that may be up

[@sassyplays8140]

Guessing he is catering a little for the more casual player but this is important information. You can sacrifice A LOT on WoW but never Spell Density if you are a player who needs to perform in higher content.

[@34hickmb]

This worked!! Might add dxdiag, graphics, and settings to make sure your gpu is at correct settings. Precision x1 does a scan to OC your card. But I could never find current settings, only best OC'd. Fixed 3d acceleration error and blue screens. I almost gave up but now I have best fps, and was able to increase game settings. 👌

[@ruipedro9021]

Unbelievable how I went from having frequent fps drops in cities and sometimes full 10 second freezes in big packs in dungeons to being able to run the game smoothly with no drops. Sure it's uglier than before, but performance wise it's better than it's ever been. Can't ask for more on my 7 year old PC. Also my CPU usage dropped massively and along with it it's avg temperature dropped by 10ºc So, big thanks to you for showing us how to run this game on outdated/potato PCs.

[@ruipedro9021]

I'd only add the detail that when you're using Intelligent Standby List Cleaner you should run cmd as administrator and input the following command "bcdedit /set useplatformtick yes" so the current time resolution matches the maximum current resolution perfectly.

Just wanted to say thank you for this guide. I'm playing on a low-end laptop, and I wasn't expecting much from optimisation, but this made a HUGE difference, perhaps 10-20 fps increase, which is a big deal when I was getting 15-20fps before!

Love your guides Panjno, but I have a question (or to anyone else reading this)! This guide did improve the performance, but I am experiencing texture flickering. I tried downgrading GPU drivers (as there are rumours new drivers could cause this), installed monitor drivers (as I use a new one), tweaked a lot with in-game settings, then followed this guide again - flickering still persists. My setup: CPU: Intel i7-4790K GPU: Nvidia 1660 Ti (MSI) RAM: 16 GB Monitor: 4K Asus VG289Q Game resolution: 3840x2160 Video cable used between monitor and GPU: DisplayPort 1.2 (should meet the standards and requirements of 4K 60 FPS gaming) Graphic drivers: used the newest first (460.89 at the time), then downgraded to 441.66 (as there are no complaints about flickering around and after its release date) and now I am running 452.06 (drivers issued for Shadowlands expansion). Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? I would really love to get rid of it and at the same time maintain reasonable graphics quality. Thanks so much for any kind of feedback and have a nice Christmas time!

I have a 3060 And maintain around 80-100 fps solo. In a 5 man dungeon I will get 60-80, but in a 40 man or body part of the Maw/Korthia, especially farming the Fallen Charger, I get 30-40.
