Wow finally a thorough settings guide that is up to date with examples. Thank you for your work!!
Glad you liked it!!
@@TechGuides whos gameplay am i watching? gotta love that hard slowdown from either a cronus or aimbot on the chest at :26 Another streamer cheating imagine
â@@scottmcnichols4885 Im playing on mouse and keyboard lmfao
@@TechGuides so you cant explain the lock to the chest good to know!
@@scottmcnichols4885 thats not a lock thats called AIMINIG. "playing with mouse and keyboard."
If you want to compare the different settings yourself, check out the corresponding blog post: techguides.yt/guides/gaming/battlefield-2042-best-pc-settings/
Note: The label at 08:44 should have obviously mentioned Effects Quality instead of Post Processing Quality - sorry!
Thank you for the testing you did, loved the video, going to put these changes now to try it out !
Thank you very much for benchmarking all the graphics settings in Battlefield 2042! Ive been waiting for this.
My pleasure!
@@TechGuides Can I suggest a next game? I think Apex Legends would be nice to compare all the settings. In Apex Legends theres settings to compare and change in the videoconfig too. csm_enabled 0 + default Ńsm_coverage and default csm_cascade_res vs csm_enabled 1 + "setting.csm_coverage""0" "setting.csm_cascade_res""0"
@@never_more8117 Thanks for the suggestion! I once tried for Apex but its very hard without custom matches or a build in benchmark to get consistent results...
thank you for your explanation about all the configurations man, it helped me a lot!
Yes! Been looking forward to this guide. Thanks Roman, the community is grateful.
Haha I know, sorry it took forever :)
@@TechGuides Question Roman, for Undergrowth quality, why did you recommend High present when Ultra had less impact on FPS lows?
I dont think lows are truely better on Ultra as my results are definitly within the margin of error, i.e. any 1-2% differences can probably be attributed to chance.
I've been looking for a video like this. Keep it up, you're doing a great job!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks ! Very descriptive! đ
Thank you for your effort and work mate!
I have been waiting for someone to do a video like this. Couldnt ask for a better explanation and setup! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice vid bro, it really helped me with the graphics specially the FOV part which I did not know, keep up the good work brother :D
Good to hear! Thank you :)
Great in depth analysis as usual! Are you able to do the same for obs studio? For streaming purposes and go through the settings, which uses the most gpu usage etc, which effects the fps the most and so on
Thank you! Yes I will definitely soon pivot over to making more OBS content again. I first have to finish a few other projects though, got a huge backlog but so little time...
Perfect video! Thank you for the in depth explanation and effort!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for all of the detail. Managed to bump some settings up without losing a chunk of FPS!
Happy to hear!
Post Processing on High turns on Screen Space Reflections, I think it's very important for the visuals, specially in urban areas and when it's raining.
And like in most game, this is not just about making water reflect, but your gun and many other things are constantly reflecting the environment and lights around.
Do you think high or ultra?
Very nice work man, keep it up!
Informative. All that I saw on CZcams came down to one thing - all settings to a minimum. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Amazing work as always, thanks a lot TG! đ
Thank you for watching!!
Good video! No BS and very detailed. Thanks!
This is super helpful. Thank you. I just upgraded to the 7800X3D and I wasn't getting the FPS I was expecting on Ultra, but thanks to this video and making the suggested changes I am getting really good FPS now. đ
Awesome!
What GPU you were using?
@@cptforce4541 7900XTX NITRO + AMD/Sapphire
I have the exact same setup. I using the the LGC2 as my monitor and it looks amazing.
@@newt6639 I looked at the LGC2 but ended up with the Samsung 34" Odyssey OLED G85SB, 0.1ms, 175Hz. No regrets apart from it's not 4k. Doesn't bother me too much.đ
Been waiting this kind of one. Thanks wery much đȘđ»đđ»
Awesome, thanks for watching!
Great analys! Thanks for work
Thanks man helped me a lot.
Very Underrated channel. Keep up the good work mate, as always!
Too kind, thanks!!
Thanks! followed pretty much everything and hardly noticed a difference in graphics but now have steady fps with my 6700xt.
BTW (not sure if its just my pc) instead of opening another another program to go into fullscreen, you can hit the windows key then click on the game. Normally works first try, sometimes have to do it twice.
Great video. 10/10 Thanks!
Thank you for these vids. I have both this one and the warzone one in my favourites (:
Thank you so much for that perfect explanation.
Thank you for testing I was looking for a options guide based on fps.
Thanks for watching!
Great one bro, thanks.
I noticed the same thing about textures. I was playing with default settings and thought "damn this game looks really good, maybe I should turn down my settings to get more fps" only to find out that the game was already on a mixture of medium and low settings. Crazy.
Thank You! Amazing as always!
Appreciate it so much :)
Very good video, followed all steps and the game looks and runs superb! - 10/10 from me
Pretty useful video, good job. I used your recommendations and the results are good.
Happy to hear!
Thank you so much for this!
Amazing video, thanks đȘ
Thank you, this helped remove the stutter in my game, I appreciate that.
I did test DLSS Quality on my end, using the same settings, except HBAO enabled I was able to go from 125-138 fps with my 3060ti (1440p)
Tested it in a empty field where my frame rate was consistent, off on, off on every time 120's to 130's not a dramatic difference but still 11% so it made up for the HBAO and than some. Though I do know it can vary from system to system, still shocked you manage to get such high framerate in this game, I get 4080, and i9 but dang 300's this game basically maxes out my cheap Ryzen 3600 lol
Tnx so much for this video!
that was a great help man it Boosted my FPS, I have a Ryzen 5 3600, 16G memory, RTX 2070super and I run the game from my SSD
very good video with direct comparison! great job
Thanks for watching!
hey what an amazing guide, thank you! QQ about transferring mouse sensitivity, my COD FOV was exactly like yours 110, so in game I changed FOV to 78, but I was also told to change config file "MouseSensitivity" to: 0.009399, Do I need to change anything in the game as well? My COD Sett were: 1440p, 110fov, 800DPI, in game sens 5.
You are the best! Love your videos. Thank you :)
Awesome video like always , i love you videos keep up the good work bro
Much appreciated, will do!!
Well done video! đȘ
Thank you đ
great job Man!
Great Vid thx for posting, subbed đ
Appreciate the support!!
Excellent content, this really helped me
Thanks for watching
This video is super well made!
Appreciate it!
For future reference, You were partially correct with nvidia low latency, It's not necessarily for a lesser system, it's for when you are bottlenecked and your cpu isn't as good as your gpu, other than that scenario it's always reccomended to just have it enabled like you have it. Great Video cheers mate!
Hey! I have a 3600x + rtx 3080 10gb VRAM (+ 64gb ram) should i have Nvidia latency on enable + boost? Or just enable? My CPU is heavy bottlenecked i think
I did all of this video and aditionally added the Fluid Motion Frames and Anti Lag from AMD app and go from 115+FPS to 180+FPS with a peak of 210 sometimes đź this is crazy! And the game looks good! Thanks TG for this guide! đ
Great video!
Thanks bro :)
Great guide, many thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video I really appreciate stuff like this while still rocking an I7 8700K, but in my opinion I would not recommend putting mesh quality lower than high as for me anyway I've had moments where certain vehicles turn to blobs it becomes annoying to take out drivers.
great video i have a 4080 7600x should i turn on or turn off Dlss ?
GreatVideo Thanks!!!! New Sub.
Much appreciated!!
Great performance guide with data to back it up. However PLEASE note, I know itâs not possible to test but some of those recommended graphics settings does reduce your performance more when youâre playing 128 conquest. Especially in areas with many players, Hugh number of objects or modes like rushXL. Mesh and lighting on medium for example has a performance hit. I turn these on low due better uplift in congested areas.
My competitive settings, textures & filter on ultra, everything else on low or off. 1440p native. Under nvidia control panel, imaging scaling sharpening to 45%. Color settings gamma to 1.03, digital vibrance to 56%. Iâm running a 4070ti.
Thanks! Yes, however I measured performance with 64 bots on TDM to try to emulate the CPU load of a lot of actual players!
@@TechGuides thanks for your comprehensive effort. Just letting viewers know the performance on a real world match with 128âplayers vs simulated bots is different. Youâll always get better performance with bot matches, less stress on system resources. The margins of the difference in graphics settings are wider in a real match. Please check. Anyway thanks for everything.
Great video! So you suggest DLSS off? Or in balanced?
Some viewers mentioned that they see a performance boost also with Quality so I would try that first and only use Balanced if necessary.
I absolutely love guides like this. Balanced settings are the way to go. Can we get an updated one for Warzone 2 (now that new settings have been added)?
I'm working one updating the up-scaling part. The remainder of the settings haven't really changed all that much to completely re-do all of them (there are soo many...)
Great vid man
Thanks!
Dude you REALLY deserve more likes
I was fed up after searching some settings guide and ppl "oh hey just leave everything on LOW", NO SHIT SHERLOCK
i have a good systeam and therefore i want the best Visual X FPS rate, and you provided this, thanks a lot
Glad you got value from this video, took a while to put together so your feedback is greatly appreciated!
Ty so much!!!!
Thanks for watching!
For the Fullscreen Mode @2:30, just click the game and hit the windows key (On Keyboard) to bring up and bring down the start menu. no need for a second application.
Edit:
DLSS Quality Mode provided a 20FPS improvement on my end. I have a 2070 Super Max Q.
Otherwise I gained 10-15FPS from your settings and it's more consistent. Thanks a lot man!
Oh cool, thanks for the tip!! Yeah I suspected that other GPU's will likely benefit more from DLSS than mine, happy to hear!
DLSS in this game is horrible, i tried it and immediately turned it off, this game looks in general like a switch game
Very informative! It seems this game is quirky wherever you look LOL! Thanks for the weapon DOF thingy, disabled that right away!
Cheers bro :)
What is dof and what does disabling it do?
Thank you for your meticulous testing. Definately satisfies the nerds in all of us haha
Tank you so much this video!!!
Cheers!
Thx bro
I have a RTX 4060 laptop. Will these settings still work or are these settings for ultra high level system?
Also the terrain quality changes the tessellation. Medium is when you start to notice it.
The weapon DOF was a NICE find dude!
Thanks man!
@@TechGuides Went through your guide and running pretty much the same settings now, although I have a beefy system. No point using ULTRA if I don't notice any differences in graphics from high to ultra :D - Cheers
Totally agree, happy to have made a bit of a difference :)
Had anyone else been having issues with the brightness in the game. I originally played with HDR turned on and noticed some things affecting the HUD elements like Kill feed and such. Over bright clouds and rocks washing out text on the screen. Even with HDR off it seems bad. Anyone else have this issue? Great guide btw. Showing why youâre picking settings is way easier to follow and choose for myself. đ
Do you have a displayHDR of 600 or higher then turn on HDR, if lower your better off finding a guide online to set your screen colors and settings. I have a hdr 400 and without it the games look better and i have more options in my option menu(like black levels and all that)
@@NL-Chaos Mine is HDR 1000 and many things seem way too bright. I deleted the cache once and it looked good for a bit then became too bright again. Not really sure what is going on.
Did you try resetting your graphics card drivers ? And resetting your screen to factory defaults ?
@@NL-Chaos It's done it on more then one screen and the newest one I haven't changed a thing. It has also done this with two graphics cards both new and old drivers. Muliple cables too including the ones from the screens box.
@@dustinmihalcheon5013 I noticed it on certain maps and only in certain spots that it is to light. Perhaps test it out on maps and fill in a bug report ?
+1 thanks!!
thank you!
My pleasure!
This is pure gold, thank you for helping me getting the most out of my 7900xtx
Thanks for watching!
Good stuff
DUDE I LOVE YOU, I SEARCHED EVERYWHERE FOR THE WEAPON DOF HOW TO TURN IT OFF you are the one
Cheers man!!
i have the problem where vehicle at a distance of around 50m or higher start looking like a block especially the MAV. anyone has that? or is it normal?
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
I have a laptop, i5-10500H and GTX 1650 Max-Q and i've tried your settings and it just made it worse... Any ideas of what do i do or just set it all to low?
The youtuber Enders used your stuff to make also a video about that topic, do you know that?
On a new rx 7600 card I found absolutely no performance difference with ray traced ambient occlusion on or off, but with it on, the game looks leagues better and I have found some cases where visibility was alot better
thank you for the videoâ€â€
I have a question ,when I record the desktop with obs studio and i open the youtupe website obs records the videos bad quality but the another areas are good. do you know how to fix it ? and thanks
Hmm havent had this exact issue before however for YT videos I would recommend to simply download the source using 4kvideodownloader. I also use that tool for my bitrate & quality tests
@@TechGuides â€â€thank you
fucking love these tech guides. take love my maan.
Thank you so much!
just what I was looking for. Keep it up! đ99% of the experts in videos about optimization say that you just need to set everything to the minimum and donât ask me why đż
Thanks!!
naah you can't just skip things like raytaced AO, i have a 3070 and a 1080p screen so i have some space for gpu intensive settings, but i would like to see how it looks compared to SSAO and HBAO, because even tho HBAO looks "Fuller" for me it looks way to dark in contrast to environment around so i chose SSAO for now and searched for the settings comparison video to see RT AO, this is how i got here. Also would be nice to see gpu and cpu load for different settings. Other than that - Great video!
It feels so insanely weird to put FOV on such a low number... As someone that always tries to roll with 110+ if possible in a game, seeing that
Good Video
Antialiasing Post-Processing I prefer to set to low, the image is less blurry.
Interesting, the truth is that before the fps were irregular, but with this adjustment the fps stabilizedđź
I looked at your hardware the only differences between you and i are my gpu is a 3070ti and my cpu is a i9 11900k youâre getting double the fps than i am. Im getting like 110-150fps is my cpu the issue? This is at 1440p
What's the best settings for amd radeon 570x 8gb people?
Are you going to do a season 5?
Unlikely, I don't think much changed, right?
using the lights on medium Fix the low ress textures on rocks, you wellcome
about antialiasing is very blurry on 1080p, in high is for high ress monitors
When I set the dog to 0 it force me to have. 49GB update without the use of Internet and just using disk
i cant find the settings file to change the DOF ?
I get massive frame drops with the thermal scopes hopefully the dof works for me
got some frame drops today that I had never had...and come to think of it I was using a thermal scope. Did you find a fix / setting to help wit this?
For the DLSS option you should use
ultra performance for 8K
performance for 4K
balancer for 1440p
quality for 1080p
It's refreshing to see a performance tweak video with the person knowing what he is talking about and not just those people who copy paste the same shit over and over like changing startup command lines, switching GPU's to performance mode and all that crap us more technical gamers know does nothing.
Appreciate it man! It always takes a long time to produce these videos and its nice to see people appreciate it :)
anyone noticed any performance changes to any settings since season 5?
Appreciate the recommendations. Your video assumes every one is running Nvidia GPUs, perhaps worth adding a disclaimer at the start of the video. BF2042 also doesnt support FSR. That being said I noticed similar FPS improvements using a 6800xt with your setttings.
Yes true and sorry for omitting the disclaimer on my system at the start. I noticed that people rather like me to get on with the video instead of talking about system specs at the start. Will include an overlay next time though!
Thx! Don't "agree" on everything but very well put together :)
i5-12600K with 3060ti running 1440p 150fps (170hz screen), better fps with DLSS quality than native res, haven't measured though. But runs better in 64/32 player games.
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I suspected that my DLSS results are not very reliable. I actually also own a 3060ti and will probably do DLSS testing on that instad in the future. Cheers
