@@SomeDanishChick low end PC check it, mid/high end PC uncheck it Dunno why it’s better on, on a low end PC but this deffo does help on higher end PC’s with it unchecked
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.
Thank you so much for this! I'm using this for 10.1 so some of the options weren't here but this has really helped me. I was having serious lag issues this past week in Valdrakken and now it's running smoothly. Thank you!!
Thank you so much! Ever since Shadowlands dropped, my laptop stopped running smoothly at Ultra/High graphics but now with everything lowered, I can finally run it like a charm 😊
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.
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.
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.
My man, thank you so much for this! Never had a channel go through settings I was not even aware of! I changed to what you have and it drastically improved my FPS! To be clear I am running a Samsung 32" 1080 and a Gigabyte 32" 1440 both curved monitors. I was frustrated because I was not getting the FPS with my Gigabyte which should be 165hz refresh. Now it's usually hitting between 144-165 solid! Thank you again!
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
THANK YOU i have Gaming Laptop wonder why it was lagging and having slow load screens. MAN YOU HELP SOOOOOOO MUCH!!!! I REALLLY feel like i have a gaming laptop now. HELPFUL video thank you again friend
Quick question, you said make sure Use browser hardware acceleration when available is unchecked, but then you checked it in the video. Did you want us to uncheck it or check it??
I know you aren't going to read this but wow i dont know how you came up with this but instead of me having to lower my graphics to the lowest possible and still lagging while my pc turns into a oven has now become me being able to have high graphics and my pc actually acting normal for once, I cant thank you enough very big thanks!!!
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*
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
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. I mean my laptop isnt amazing and is a year or so old but should not be running the game so badly. 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!!
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!
@@Thedrunkenswede1337 to be honest i used to be very low end pc person and 50 wasn't even that bad like seriously i see no difference from 50 to 60 maybe input but thats really all unless you're used to a higher refresh rate
You say make sure the "Use browser hardware acceleration when alvalible" is unchecked, then checking it @1:28 - Should i check it or not check it ? :) Thanks anyways! Great video as always !
The nvidia panel that you've shown is quite different from the latest Nvidia optimizations video that you had which had massive improvements. Which one would you recommend (considering that you have a 3080 and i have a 970).
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.
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. 👌
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.
Ardenweald jumped from 30/40 fps to a steady 75 fps which is my monitor fps cap. (And I thought I had it optimised before!) I love you. P.S. - gtx 970, i5 4690, 16gb old ram, 2560x1080 resolution
Been on a old computer and with windows 8.1, a lot of the shown settings were actually missing for me. Nonetheless, i have managed to get over 40 fps. Sounds low i know but believe me, i played around 10-15 so such an increase is really welcome. Thank you very much for this guide.
@@Gilly209x my personal situation hasn’t evolved much due to the fact graphic cards are currently « a little » overpriced therefor I am curious about your results. Feel free to share them 👍
Hope it works, thanks a lot, this video is very detailed and I actually enjoyed more adjusting the settings and watching this than playing the game lol
This was an amazing guide! went from 70 fps in Oribos to 139 on average almost anywhere in shadowlands with some places now getting to 217! Appreciate the guide!
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!
hey thanks for the guide it helped some but im still running 40-50 fps behind far more intesive games, Aswell as 80 odd behind people with similar pc builds. Is there any changes you know of recently that has cause wierd issues. Thanks again for this video and any further advice you may be able to give
@Panjno , i udnerstand "make sure that Hardware browser acceleration is unchecked" and then u set it to on while saying to turn it off? what u mean now? on or off?
Great video! Question though; what addon or overlay are you using to display the latency and system information in game? - took a quick look, haven't seen the answer in the comments yet
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.
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.
You've got a 3080 and your settings are Good Fair and Low when it can all be high with no issues in performance 🤔......I'm running a 1660 super with no dramas on all highs - what you playing at?
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. Is I am running at ultra 1440P. Maxed out. It honestly depends what you are doing. Perhaps he runs in large groups and needs to free up his video card to handle the extra textures.
Heya! Nice video but I got a little side question. You appear to have an rtx 3080 as well ever since I installed mine I get a weird shadow flickering whenever I turn off raytracing. Do you know what could cause this? I'd like to show off the flickering but as soon as I start any form of screen recording it stops. I got all up to date drivers and even removed the old nvidia driver with ddu already

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

It is the On Screen Display from MSI Afterburner. Don't know if you can get it standalone but i think it is called RivaTuner Statistics Server
@@DarkhaloDruide Thanks. Currently running an EVGA card, so I'll have to check out the RivaTuner then

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.

How do I undo all these changes, do I have to just do it manually? I did this and it took my fps from 90 down to 25, not sure what happened
With windows 11, should I use the "Variable refresh rate" feature which appears under the default graphics settings?
Fantastic set of recommendations man. Really helped :D
