R.E.P.O. Best Graphic Settings

Every game has different graphics settings, but the goal is always the same: maximize performance without making the game look terrible. If you’re playing R.E.P.O. (or any other game tbh), here's how to tweak your settings for the best balance of FPS and visuals.

Step 1: Start with the Presets

Most games offer Low, Medium, High, and Ultra settings. Start with:

  • Low or Medium if you're struggling with FPS.

  • High or Ultra if your PC can handle it without stuttering.

  • Custom settings for the best mix of performance and visuals.

Step 2: Prioritize These Key Settings

If you need more FPS, lower these first:

  • Shadows – One of the biggest FPS killers. Lower it to Medium or Low.

  • Effects Quality – Explosions, fog, and fancy lighting can tank performance.

  • Post-Processing – Adds depth but isn't essential. Keep it Low.

  • Ambient Occlusion – Extra shadows that look nice but drain FPS. Turn it Off.

If you want better visuals without hurting FPS too much, increase these:

  • Texture Quality – Keep this High if you have a good GPU with enough VRAM.

  • Anti-Aliasing – FXAA or TAA smooths jagged edges without too much performance loss.

  • Anisotropic Filtering – Improves texture clarity with little FPS impact.

Step 3: Adjust Resolution & Frame Rate

  • Always play at your monitor’s native resolution for the best experience.

  • If FPS is low, try lowering resolution slightly (e.g., 1920x1080 → 1600x900).

  • Turn off V-Sync unless you have screen tearing.

FPS Cap Tip:

  • If your game fluctuates wildly between 40-100 FPS, cap it at 60 FPS for a smoother experience.

  • If your monitor supports 120Hz or 144Hz, cap FPS to match.

Step 4: Check Background Apps & Drivers

  • Close anything unnecessary (Discord overlays, Chrome, background apps).

  • Update your GPU drivers (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel).

  • Disable Windows Game Mode if it’s causing issues.

Final Blurb

Every game is different, but the process is the same: lower shadows, effects, and post-processing for more FPS, and increase textures and anti-aliasing for better visuals. Play around with settings until you hit that sweet spot—smooth gameplay without looking like a potato.
