Battlefield 1: The perfect graphics settings for graphics and performance
Battlefield 1's hardware requirements are enormous. With a few tweaks in the graphics settings, however, you can easily find a middle ground between performance and good presentation.
Perfect graphics setting for Battlefield 1
Note: Since different hardware is installed in every PC, you have to adapt the following tips to the performance of your PC.
- In the "Video"> "Standard" settings menu you will find the "Vertical synchronization". This is used to coordinate the images on your screen, but the option consumes a lot of power and has a comparatively low effect. You can therefore switch off the V-Sync.
- In the "Advanced" tab you will first find the item "DX12". Depending on the graphics card, this feature gives you better or worse performance. We advise you to switch DX 12 off, as most graphics cards currently perform better without this feature.
- With "Texture filter" and "Texture quality" you should, according to your PC, set to higher levels, because this way you can better recognize your opponents even in the distance and these two points influence the in-game look at the same time.
- The next three points "Illumination Quality", "Effect Quality" and "Postprocessing Quality" can be set to the lowest level. These settings make the game look nicer, but they are also performance eaters.
- The "mesh quality" ultimately refers to the render distance. Set them as high as possible to see opponents in the distance as early as possible.
- "Terrain quality" is mainly important for vehicles. As an infantryman, use low settings there.
- You should set the "brushwood quality" to "low", as this will give you an advantage if you can see opponents in the bushes better.
- The last two points "Post-Anti-Aliasing" and "Surrounding" cover a lot of computing power and can therefore be turned off.
