Theres no reason to run Texrture filtering on low. Anisotropic flitering should always be set to 16x aka Ultra. cleans up the image without any real FPS hit. The game looks much better if effects are turned up as well with HBAO on and lighting. running on low feels unnessary since the last update.
Your bf4 optimization back in the day and settings became my default on all battlefields. You also got me onto Freethy which I thank you for. I haven't even played 2042 yet.

Great guide. For those who wonder why that specific range of FOV: Battlefield's FOV is Vertical FOV, so 74 BF FOV is like the classic 90 FOV on CoD or whatever. On older BF games, the setting would tell you what was going to be in horizontal FOV.. so that's why you shouldn't go lower than 74 and higher than 98. 120 vertical fov is HELL
Nvidia Reflex + Boost does not cap your GPU usage. The boost part forces your GPU to use max clocks all the time so it won't downclock when not being used much to save power. It basically does the same thing as "prefer maximum performance" in the Nvidia control panel. This can lead to better overall performance and smoothness but will give higher temps on the GPU but not by much.
@@eillswim I am not talking about Reflex, I was talking about the "Boost" part of Reflex+Boost. The boost just forces max GPU clocks and turns off any c-states the GPU uses to save power. Reflex takes over the swap chain of the game, allowing the driver to take control of how finised frames are displayed to the monitor and how to organise the frame que more efficiently using the reflex API, reducing latency. This is why a lot of people don't bother using the reflex+boost and just use reflex on its own to save power.
Idk why people complain about higher CPU load, its literally what improves performance. They made the game take better use of your CPU, which is why so many, including me have had serious FPS improvements, i earned about 40+ frames after the update
Only reason to complain about higher CPU load if you're being bottlenecked due to the changes. If your CPU bottlenecking you, the changes could have made it much worse.
Thanks man, amazing video - changed some of the colours to assist my own eyesight and works a lot better. I found myself constantly shooting at my teammates with the default colour, but now can distinguish them much better ;) Keep up the great work and vids.
This video changed my life. Just picked the game up and was doing well but now I’m running 100 fps and the game feels so good. I’m still getting used to the chipper controls.

Dude, I’ve never played these games on a PC, but I can’t get over how much more aim control you get from a mouse, it is so hard to aim like that on a controller
Good settings but for me personally on rtx3070, I have textures set to ultra, texture filter on high, nvidia image scaling sharpening to 40% in the nvidia control panel. Lose 2 fps with this setup but the visibility is SUPREME.
@@SilkOCE I used to play in low @1440p but found it was too blurry at long ranges. Those setting I used fixes that with hardly any performance drop. Just try it, you probably lose 1fps :)
Game is on sale atm. Might actually get it. With all the negative reviews. Did not think it was worth it. We'll see. Keep the videos coming! Loved your BF4 Content Edit: ok not first comment, third is fine lol
I'm so happy I found this. I have the same type of color blindness, I did a test and it seems that either the red/green colorblindness does something with yellow because I found in many of the tests I'm less sensitive to red/green and more senetive to yellows, so to me enemies are also always yellow. Now the Deuteranomaly colorblind mode in Battlefield 4 (that I'm just recently getting into), has the squad color a similar color to the yellowish enemy colors, that's bloody stupid. This game allows you to set everything yourself and this is the solution, because everyone is a little different, and on some maps you want something else. Having set modes for colorblindness is silly, since the experience of color is a subjective experience measured through instruments that are not human eyes when we try to define an objective definition. We can't accurately translate what we see to "oh that's 230 nanometer wavelength" no we can't so let people tweak it themselves. Thank you this helped me so very much!
Future frame rendering increases input lag by design. Keep that off and use dlss instead to gain some fps. Also low graphical settings will affect visibility in especially long range.
some people need to understand, that depending on your computer and the game, running graphics on Low can actually make the game run worse. On my 1650, ive noticed that i get better on 2042 with medium graphics than i do with low.
why does the texture of everything looks like shit and grainy, I feel like my hits tickle people, i feel like im always not hitting my targets even though i clearly am but, i have random bullets feeling like gravity is just yanking them down or go completely off into space.
Just played a few hours on default and was only getting 60-70 fps. After your recommendations and applying another guys cfg I'm getting 120+ and that "uniform soldier aiming coefficient to 0%" part is night and day for my aim. I can actually hit targets now...
bro u forgot to show your hud settings but thanks for everything else please could you do an update of your in heli hud settings where you have it closer to middle when u get chance thanks
What's your source for fullscreen having less input lag? That used to be the case in older versions of windows, but in newer versions of 10 and 11 borderless fullscreen is the preferred way to play as it has been optimized to have the same input lag as fullscreen from my understanding (and thats how it feels).
depends on what is on your desktop, if you use borderless fullscreen and use a fcking 4K 60 fps movie as wallpaper that shit will also be loaded the entire time, looking at all those weird weebs with their half naked anime bitch as background. If you have a basic bg and your desktop isnt over filled with shit there shouldnt be much of an inpact, but there is one should be minor tho, but noticeable at least for my part
Change in my documents/bf2042/profsafeprof(opened with notepad), then find under render and change value from 1 to 0 ..enlighten to 0, shadow quality both setings to 0, dx12 set to 1, and significant quality set to 0...you will lower graphic quality by little,not much,but this config will give you great boost and you would be able to play it without tearing
I personally just can't play without at least high Texture Filtering and High AA because If I play at lowest settings there are literally several cm big squares around the edges, on top of that the games seems to be rendered in 480p. I don't know what kind of fucked up spaghetti code Dice released in this installment but even with all settings Ultra without DLSS or any upscaling the game looks like it is rendered in 720p and then upscaled to 1080p. Very frustrating
I can not believe you aren't using DLSS. I keep DLSS on balanced. Game still looks good and I get a HUGE FPS boost. Using a 13600k with a 3070 and it pushes me to about 165fps. If I put DLSS on performance the game starts to look worse but I get over 200 FPS...
If you have a 144Hz monitor, put that lock on 142/143 FPS. It's better for muscle memory. I'll issue 200 FPS as useless, you have to wait for the server response anyway.
how do you change the keybinds cause i literally cannot make my mouse settings like you have or how i want cause it wants me to make everything left click for mouse
what are you running. copied all the settings and running a 3080ti 5800x and custom settings with most high to very high and get 120ish fps and with your settings get 235-140 not sure how your getting 168 fps
gonna try and see if this work. im playing with Ryzen 7 2700X - Radeon Rx580 Nitro+ 16GB RAM and there are moments where my game goes to 10-20 fps or something. only game its happening at :/
The highest FPS I have is in non combat and its 16 FPS, the highest FPS I got in combat is 6 FPS. And its very clear for me that enemys are nerby because my FPS drop and I when I aim I have 2 FPS.
