How to Increase FPS in Fortnite

You can adjust Fortnite’s settings to make the game run more frames per second (FPS) for two reasons: First, your Windows or Mac PC is too weak and suffers to deliver minimally decent performance. Therefore, it is preferable to reduce the graphics quality of your computer for gameplay.

Second, you can already do it at a satisfactory frame rate (between 30 and 60 fps), but you want to increase the number of frames to get a strategic advantage in matches. If your computer is average, lowering Fortnite’s graphics quality may allow it to perform up to 60 frames per second.

Of course, depending on how many frames you want to achieve, you will need a powerful computer, a recent video card, and a monitor that supports higher frame rates. That said, here’s how to increase FPS on Fortnite.

  1. Open Fortnite on your computer and select the “Battle Royale” option;
  2. Click on “Menu” (the three parallel lines) and then “Settings” (the gear icon);
  3. Click on “Video” (the icon of a TV) to access Fortnite’s video settings;
  4. Leave the video settings for Fortnite as follows:
  • Window Mode: “Full Screen”;
  • Monitor resolution: “1280 x 720” or lower;
  • Frame Rate Limit: “Unlimited”;
  • Quality: “Low”;
  • 3D resolution: “480p”;
  • Viewing Distance: “Near”;
  • Shadows: “Off”;
  • Anti-aliasing: “Off”;
  • Texture: “Low”;
  • Effects: “Low”;
  • Post Processing: “Low”;
  • VSync: “Off”;
  • Lack of Clarity of Movement: “Off”;
  • Show FPS: To the user’s taste.
  1. Click on “Game” (the gear icon);
  2. Leave the option “Pairing region” in “Automatic”;
  3. Scroll down to the end and leave “Record Replays”, “Record Replays of Great Teams” and “Record Replays in Creative Mode” at “Off”;
  4. Click on “Apply.”

And ready.

Having made these changes, Fortnite should run on your PC (Windows) or Mac (macOS) running more frames per second, even though the graphics don’t look very nice.
