FOV: Increasing FOV lowers FPS, Recommended 93-98. ADS FOV: Negligible performance impact, recommend on. Motion Blur: 2-5% impact. Recommend off. Chromatic Aberration: Recommend off, no impact. Vignette: Recommend off, no impact. Texture Quality: VRAM impact. Recommend medium. Texture Filtering: 9-11% impact. Recommend medium. Lighting Quality: 10-16% ultra. Recommend medium. Shadow Filtering: PCF or PCSS. 3-5% difference, PCSS more costly. PCF for sharp shadows. PCSS for softer shadows. Effects Quality: Recommend high or medium. If many explosions, set to low. Post process quality: Low. Mesh Quality: Spot enemies easier far away set to low. Increase More details far away objects set to ultra. Terrain quality: Minimal impact. Adds depth to game visuals. 3-5% impact. Recommend high. Undergrowth quality: up to 35% impact. Recommend low. Anti-aliasing: TAA high looks better, 1-3% impact. Recommend high.

DLSS: Nvidia RTX cards: Quality, best visuals and performance. Recommend for resolutions above 1080p. Ray Tracing: Huge peformance hit around 30%. Recommend off. Nvidia Reflex Low Latency: enabled plus boost Future Frame Rendering: on Vertical Sync: off
Lighting quality is actually very important. Low lighting quality makes some textures look extremely pixelated and low res, most noticeable on rocks and trees. You can notice it most on the rocks under the ship on Stranded. Turning lighting quality to medium fixes this. Still no fsr though :/
Dang! This is exactly what we needed! Thank you for the dedication you put into doing actual testing and not just saying "set all to low". I like the feel of higher frames, but also love the beautiful look of the game. Now I can intelligently decide which settings to tweak to my preferred look. Thank you!
You can turn off the weapon DOF(makes the weapon blurry while ADS'ing)by going into Documents\Battlefield 2042\settings then open the "PROFSAVE_profile" with notepad then change GstRender.WeaponDOF 1 to GstRender.WeaponDOF 0 then save the file.
Thank you for the very clear descriptions of what the various graphic settings are and do. Since I really did not know what they did (before you video), I pretty much left them alone!
So I ignored the whole DLSS thing for now but otherwise mostly followed your guide and it looks great with about 20 percent more frames then before. I love that you didn’t just give an opinion you explained why and gave examples. That way even the people who don’t agree with everything can choose for themselves. Amazing work.
Perfect. just the info I was looking for. Running on 4090 with I9, I can run all Ultra with RT on, DLSS Qaulity at around 100fps. But I struggled to see any difference in game between High - Ultra and RT on .
This is the way to do it. I hate when people upload "optmization guides" and don't explain anything. I wanna know what all the settings look like the the hit I will take going from high to ultra for example. All the other videos just say use this cuz I said so. NO! I wanna know why you picked this and why its the best setting to use lol.
I'm using an AMD RX 6800XT 16GB, (2015 MHz) memory type GDDR6, memory clock 2000 MHz, memory bit rate 16.00 Gbps, total memory B/W 512 GByte/s, AMD Risen 9 5900X 12 core processor with 32 GB RAM. Your settings actually reduced my FPS but improved the latency down to 9ms. I find leaving everything at ultra with Radeon Super Resolution enabled gives me the best FPS, 150-170 with a latency of 10 ms. Still, great video.
Any update on this? I noticed after one of recent updates, game got a little sharper, but the overall performance dropped a little. Also, what settings affect CPU the most?
Big thanks for vid bro!👍 Was testing your sets for my fhd monitor. Need to say that TAA High is blurry for mine, so i prefer TAA Low. In total, BF2042 needs resolution scale like ib BF4. There i use 150% for having 2880×1620, and this picture, on my 1080p monitor, is sharp as blade, and with no aliassing. It's just perfect🤗 Please, ask DICE to ad this beast feature to BF2042😊
They actually do have resolution scale, as a console command. 1.0=100% scale, 0.5=50% scale, 1.5=150%scale. I usually do 0.5 or 0.6 at 7680x2160 native, 240 or 210 fps woth OCed 7800x3D and OCed 7900xtx The setting is GstRender.ResolutionScale 1.000000 Located in Documents\Battlefield 2042\settings\PROFSAVE_profile You can also open the console using ~ and type Render.ResolutionScale 1.0
Hello Guys, someone could help me my games when I open on ea official games it opens but after it goes to full screen it remains completely black I have no sound I have already updated windows drivers are up to date too I reinstalled all my components and other :( thank you what will help me :)
Even with all of these changes Im still only getting at best between 108FPS and 99%FPS between 48 to 60. I dont get it. I am running i9-9900k, RTX3090, 32GB RAM, game installed on a Samsung M2.NVME drive. I should be getting way higher frames.
Man, nice tests and all, but offline FPS tests are somehow useless with this game. I have constant 144fps* in a coop server, but this drops to 80 and even 65 when playing online and I have no clue why. * i7 9700k / RTX3080
This kind of test is impossible to do online. as other players will constantly hunt you down and some settings need a restart in order for it to take effect. and further, this isnt a performance test for components, the purpose of the fps shown here was to compare the performance you get between settings. so using offline to test wont matter. as long as the difference of fps per settings are shown the test itself is accurate.
@@JegsTV Sure I get it, but this game is strange when it comes to coop and public modes. I get constant 144fps when I play offline, but as soon as I get on a public server, FPS drops to 80 and even as low as 65 and I have no ideia why. If you have any clue, let me know. Cheers.
@@gdreyer whats your complete specs to begin with? playing on large player server will have a huge load on the cpu. this might be one of the reason why you experience huge dips in performance going from offline to online.
@@JegsTV Yep, i was always at 100% CPU usage when playing 2042, but since yesterday I've been testing some 'user.cfg' files I found online and I'm getting some better results now. No miracles at all, but better, around 90~95% CPU load during the whole round. Didn't notice a lot of difference between 64 and 128 servers, but it's definitely a CPU bottleneck. My specs: - Intel i7 9700K - RTX 3080ti - 32gb RAM DDR4 3600 - Game is installed in a M2 Nvme drive - 3440x1440p@144 display

somehow can play games on high/ultra yet cant even play Bf2042 on low even on 720P asked EA support for help. send them a list of what i did and tried. started with ''first i tried reinstalling the game'' first message they sent me back. ''have you tried reinstalling the game'' like wtf xD
Hey buddy, tell me which settings should I apply for a stable 100-120 FPS in Battlefield 2042 (in two variants, for Full HD and 2K resolutions). My system: i5 12400F, 3070 Ti, 32 GB RAM (3200 MHz), game installed on an M.2 SSD - I will express my gratitude by subscribing, liking, and becoming your eternal servant from Greece!
I want my music back in my fucking game, ok?! It's like eating a dish you loved for over 20 years and now someone says, well, we will swap your stake for oatmeal due to artistic reasons.
I can barely get 20fps with a quad core pc tho. Also need a new graphic card too. This game pisses me off. I can still run call of duty i dont get how horribly optimized this trash game is.
edit: correction on shadow filtering, PCF provides better FPS as seen in the numbers and expect higher vram usage on pcss.

TY so much!
This has bothered me since launch and I kept asking for an option to disable it buy the devs don't listen
It is realistic the way they have it though so I prefer it but thanks for the info anyways

Well done, all the important parts and you tell a little something about everything, good work man
Very informative stuff. Thanks for taking the time for testing this

AMD gpus 🤡 town
What about Future frame rendering? I noticed you had it on On. In BFV it really helped but didnt makes a difference in BF 2042 for me.
Why do i have Crazy Input lag like when i press movement keys it waits like 1 seconds then moves, but i got no mouse input lag its actually weirdd.
Awesome work bro, i hope i can get 10 to 20 more fps with these settings
This is exactly what i was looking for thank you!
