Advanced PUBG Settings

  1. Render Scale – 100. Really Important, anything above or below 100 can have a huge impact on Performance.
  2. FPP Camera FOV -The higher the FOV, the fewer frames you get. That is because, in High FOV, you see more Pixels at a time. I personally prefer 90 because it’s very balanced and gives me the benefit of extra Frames. Pro players with really good PC’s go for 103 FOV.
  3. Overall Graphics Quality: Custom.
  4. Anti-Aliasing – Very Low. In Competitive Games like PUBG, there is no point in having those ultra visuals with smooth edges and blurred displays. Instead, keep it low, and you will see very clear and sharp visuals that can also help you spot enemies & get high frame rates.
  5. Post-Processing – Very Low.
  6. Shadows – Very Low. Anything above Very Low will greatly impact your PC’s performance.
  7. Textures – Ultra.
  8. Effects – Very Low.
  9. Foliage – Very Low.
  10. View Distance – Medium (I used to keep it very Low because my monitor sharpness was Max. However, I recently changed my Monitor, so that benefit is gone, and now I’ve to rely on the game itself. You can go with Medium or Very Low, depending on your Monitor Settings.
  11. Sharpen – Disable.
  12. V-Sync – Disabled ( Really Important, when enabled, you will experience huge input lag, and frames will be capped to 60).
  13. Motion Blur – Disabled (Motion Blur in Competitive Games does not make any sense).

Best PUBG Launch Options for High FPS

If you are unaware of launch options. Let me explain it in easy words. The Steam version of PUBG has launch options that Steam says are advanced settings. Well, there aren’t a lot of advanced gimmicks involved; all you have to do is just enter this set of code.

-USEALLAVAILABLECORES -malloc=system -sm4

-USEALLAVAILABLECORES is going to unlock all your cores while playing PUBG. Therefore, you can expect more Frames than usual. On top of that, you will also experience more responsiveness, and the overall performance will become very consistent.

-sm4 forces DX10 graphics instead of DX11 or DX12. Consequently, in some cases, it can completely change the visuals of the game, and you might be disappointed. If you experience something like that. Just simply remove it. Everyone has had different experiences, but from what I’ve heard and experienced, everyone in the PUBG Community is using this code.

  1. Open Steam.
  2. Right-click on PUBG > Properties > General.
    Best PUBG PC Settings
    PUBG Launch Options
  3. Now Under General Tab > Click on Set Launch Options and enter the code given below.
  4. -USEALLAVAILABLECORES -malloc=system -sm4.
    Best PUBG Launch Options
    Take a good look at spacing and make sure you are entering the exact same code.
  5. Once done, simply exit and launch the game to see if you notice any changes.

Disable Full-Screen Optimisation to Improve Performance

Disabling Full-Screen Optimisation is really important. Many gamers have noticed that when enabled, the game uses more than the recommended power. Further, players have also complained that when enabled, the Windows 10 Notifications keep piling up in the background, thus impacting performance.

On the bright side, when full-screen optimization is disabled, you will also see massive responsiveness in minimizing PUBG and, in some cases, more Frames and Improved Performance.
