Quality vs Frames
Quality vs Frames
Hi! I'm trying to figure out why my graphics card isn't handling the load properly. When I increase the graphics settings, the GPU gets maxed out and frames drop. But lowering the settings makes my frame rate go up while my GPU usage drops sharply, while my CPU usage jumps. What should I do so that the GPU doesn't take over from the CPU? Thanks!
fps mainly depends on the cpu, resolution and visual appeal on the gpu. So you need to adjust the settings and discover the optimal balance for yourself. Keep the resolution low enough to prevent the cpu from being overloaded, but still high enough. This helps maintain the gpu near its maximum capacity. It could be a lower resolution with more visual interest, or a higher resolution with less visual appeal. You just need to experiment with the settings while monitoring performance at different levels.
