⚡ FPS Optimization Tips for XDefiant
🎮 In-Game Optimizations
- ▸ Disable V-Sync for lower input lag (use G-Sync/FreeSync instead)

- ▸ Lower Shadow Quality from Ultra to Medium for 10-20% FPS boost
- ▸ Use FXAA instead of MSAA for anti-aliasing (much lighter on GPU)
- ▸ Reduce Draw Distance and LOD if frame drops occur
- ▸ Enable DLSS or FSR if supported for major FPS improvement
🖥️ System Optimizations
- ▸ Update GPU drivers (NVIDIA GeForce Experience / AMD Adrenalin)
- ▸ Set Windows Power Plan to "High Performance"
- ▸ Close Chrome, Discord, and other background apps while gaming
- ▸ Enable Game Mode in Windows Settings
- ▸ Install games on SSD for faster loading (NVMe preferred)
- ▸ Enable XMP/EXPO in BIOS for optimal RAM speed
