Best Silent Hill f graphics tips for smooth performance
Before I explore what I believe are the best graphics settings, it's essential to check the basics.
- Update your graphics drivers: New updates have already been released for Silent Hill f, and the first task should be to install them. Whether you're on an AMD or Nvidia device, you can download and install the update using the app. This will allow you to optimize the drivers and get the best possible performance.
- Cap the FPS: My FPS was uncapped at first, which could have led to the only crash I endured. Since then, I have capped my crash, and the performance has been consistent and smooth.
- Disable V-Sync: If your hardware meets current standards but isn't top of the range, you can disable V-Sync to reduce the load on your system.
Let's look at the best graphics settings to use in the game.
Best graphics settings to use in Silent Hill f
The game's general performance has been extremely smooth so far. My hardware setup consists of the Ryzen 5600G, 12 GB Nvidia RTX 3060, and 16 GB of DDR5 RAM. I have been running these settings since early access began.
- Screen Mode: Fullscreen (I use Borderless Window due to my multi-screen setup)
- Frame Limit: 60
- V-Sync: Off
- Preset: Balanced
- Screen Percentage: 100%
- Indirect Lighting: Lumen Epic
- Reflections: Off
- Shadow Quality: Medium
- Texture Quality: Medium
- Shader Quality: High
- Visual Effects Quality: Medium
- Post Processing Quality: Medium
- View Distance Quality: Medium
- Anti-Aliasing: DLSS (since I have an Nvidia device)
- Anti-Aliasing Quality: Balanced
- Motion Blur: Off
This is important: if you're still experiencing performance issues, reduce all the settings from Medium to Low and from High to Medium. This should automatically remove any problems that might arise and help you complete all the missions with ease.
