First off, please make sure you game meets the Minimum Requirements listed on below:

Low Framerate

  • Update graphic card drivers
  • Update Windows
  • Turn off any optimization programs, like GeForce Experience or Intel Turbo Boost Max
  • Unplug/turn off any second monitor, especially those that don’t support HDR
  • Make sure Dynamic Super Sampling is turned off or set very low (found in Nvidia Control Panel under 3D Settings)
  • Adjust in-game graphical defaults (High/Max/Low etc.) to test FPS
    – If you find one of those settings significantly increases FPS then try changing each graphical settings one by one to see if a specific graphical option (like textures or anti-aliasing) was the main FPS detractor
