We measured this on mid and high-end rigs running PUBG and only kept the tweaks that moved 1% lows, not just the average FPS counter. Here's what survived testing.
Start with a clean Windows baseline
The single biggest source of stutter we see is the OS scheduling background work during gameplay. Lock that down first and every later tweak gets more stable.
Set the power plan to High Performance (or Ultimate), disable startup apps you don't need, and turn off Memory Integrity if you're chasing every last frame — re-test after each change.
- Power plan → High Performance / Ultimate
- Disable non-essential startup apps in Task Manager
- Turn off Game Bar + background recording
- Set Graphics preference → High Performance for the game's .exe
Lock your GPU control panel
Driver-level settings override in-game ones, so a misconfigured control panel quietly caps PUBG. We standardise these on every build.
Force the GPU into its max performance state so it doesn't down-clock between rounds.
- Power management → Prefer maximum performance
- Low Latency Mode → Ultra (or Radeon Anti-Lag On)
- Texture filtering → Performance / High performance
- Disable in-game V-Sync; cap FPS just under your refresh instead
Cap your frame rate (yes, really)
An uncapped frame rate sounds faster but produces uneven frame times and extra latency. A cap a few frames below your refresh rate keeps pacing tight.
For a 240Hz panel in PUBG, cap around 234–237 FPS. On 144Hz, target ~141. Use the in-game limiter first, then the driver as a backstop.
Verify it actually worked
Never trust the average FPS number alone. Watch 1% and 0.1% lows and frame-time consistency in PUBG — that's what 'smooth' really means.
Run the same replay or aim-trainer routine before and after, capture with a frame-time overlay, and only keep changes that flatten the graph.
- Benchmark the same scene before/after
- Track 1% lows, not just average FPS
- Watch the frame-time line — flatter is better
- Change one thing at a time so you know what moved the needle
- ✓Power plan → High Performance / Ultimate
- ✓Power management → Prefer maximum performance
- ✓Cap your frame rate (yes, really)
- ✓Benchmark the same scene before/after
