PC optimization for gaming: GeForce and Radeon
Full FPS and latency guide: Windows, NVIDIA or AMD driver, panel settings, and per-game tips from the GamesCfg catalog.
NVIDIA Control Panel, low latency, Reflex, settings for CS2, PUBG, Apex, Rust, Valorant.
Импорт настроек NVIDIA одним кликом
Скачай готовый профиль из гайда GamesCfg и импортируй в драйвер — без ручного ввода каждого пункта.
Как импортировать
- NVIDIA Profile Inspector (бесплатно) → Profile → Import → выбери .nip → Apply Changes
- Или .reg → двойной клик → перезагрузка
- Или Desktop-приложение GamesCfg → «Применить NVIDIA»
Windows — shared for GeForce and Radeon
These steps are the same for both GPUs. Do them once — better stability and fewer background stutters.
1.Game Mode
Settings → Gaming → Game Mode → On. Turn off "Record in the background" if you are not streaming.
Windows 10/11 Settings 2.Power plan
Control Panel → Power Options → "High performance" or "Ultimate Performance". On laptops — plug into AC power.
3.GPU hardware scheduling
Settings → System → Display → Graphics → enable Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling (HAGS). Reboot after changing.
4.Game Bar and overlays
Disable Xbox Game Bar, Discord overlay, GeForce Experience overlay / AMD overlay in matches — they add input lag and frame drops.
5.Background processes
Close browsers with many tabs, RGB software with aggressive polling, torrents. Task Manager → Startup — remove unnecessary apps.
In-game — universal FPS settings
| Setting | For FPS | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| V-Sync | Off | Otherwise input lag and a cap at monitor Hz |
| Shadows | Low / Medium | Heavy GPU cost |
| Anti-aliasing (AA) | Low or TAA | MSAA is expensive in CS2 |
| Effects / post-processing | Low | Bloom, motion blur — off |
| Resolution | Native or 4:3 | Lower resolution = higher FPS |
| FPS limit | 0 or +fps_max 0 | Do not cap without a reason |
Driver and NVIDIA App
Keep the Game Ready Driver up to date. In NVIDIA App / GeForce Experience, disable "Optimal settings" for competitive games — manual tuning is better.
- NVIDIA App → Settings → disable In-Game Overlay if you do not need it
- Do not use DSR/VSR unless necessary — extra load
- For CS2 / Valorant — Studio Driver is not required, Game Ready is enough
Control Panel → Manage 3D settings
Right-click desktop → NVIDIA Control Panel → Manage 3D settings. Set globally or use "Program Settings" per game.
| Setting | Value | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Power management mode | Prefer maximum performance | GPU does not downclock |
| Low Latency Mode | On | Less input lag |
| Vertical sync | Off | No FPS cap |
| Max Frame Rate | Off or limit −3 from Hz | Only if you need a cap |
| Maximum pre-rendered frames | 1 | Balance latency/FPS |
| Shader Cache | On | Fewer stutters after patches |
| Triple buffering | Off | Not needed with V-Sync off |
| Texture filtering — Quality | Performance | +1–3% FPS |
| Threaded optimization | On | For multi-core CPUs |
Per-game (NVIDIA)
Manage 3D settings → "Program Settings" tab → Add → select the game exe.
- CS2: Low Latency On, DLSS not applicable, Reflex in-game — On + Boost
- PUBG: maximum performance, anisotropic filtering 4x–8x to taste
- Apex: Reflex in-game, NVIDIA — Low Latency On
- Rust: maximum performance + launch options from the site
- Valorant: NVIDIA Reflex "On + Boost" in game settings
Cleanup and monitoring
- DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) — clean driver reinstall every six months if you see artifacts
- MSI Afterburner — monitoring only, no aggressive overclock in ranked
- HWiNFO — check that GPU is not thermal throttling (83°C+)
- Folder C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NV_Cache — clear if shader glitches occur
