Nvidia recommends setting this to Ultra, but by their own testing, it doesn't seem to do very much in some of the most popular competitive games.

Low Latency Mode is useful if you're playing a competitive game like Fortnite where you want lag and latency to be as minimal as possible. However, increasing the resolution is very graphically intensive, so take care. This might sound like a useless setting, but it can be better than anti-aliasing at eliminating jaggy graphics. You could play a game at 4K and see it on your 1080p monitor, but you obviously wouldn't see a 4K image. Basically, it will render a game at a higher resolution and then downscale it to what resolution your monitor is. This can be particularly useful if you don't want to totally shut down a game but also want to keep power usage to a minimum.ĭSR - Factors (DSR standing for Dynamic Super Resolution) can be used instead of anti-aliasing to improve visual quality. Basically, you can set a maximum framerate for an app (a game for example) that only activates if you are tabbed out and no longer playing the game. The first potentially useful setting on this list is Background Application Max Frame Rule. We're only going to focus on a few, ordered from first to last on the list. Most of these settings are fairly useless or nonfunctional for modern applications. You should see many, many settings in this tab, but don't be overwhelmed.
