FragPunk is one of the hottest shooters right now, with fast-paced gameplay and vibrant graphics. But if you’re not getting smooth frames, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. High FPS (frames per second) doesn’t just make the game look better—it makes you more responsive, accurate, and competitive.

In this guide, we’ll cover the best settings for max FPS in FragPunk, plus some pro tips to squeeze out every extra frame.

Why FPS Matters in FragPunk

FPS is basically how many images your PC can pump out every second.The higher it is, the smoother the game runs. Low FPS makes things choppy and sluggish. High FPS makes gameplay smooth, aiming easier, and reactions quicker.

For competitive shooters like FragPunk, you should aim for at least 120 FPS—more if your system can handle it.

System Requirements for FragPunk

Before we mess with settings, let’s make sure your PC can run FragPunk decently.

Minimum Requirements

  • Intel i5-6600K processor

  • 8GB of RAM

  • GTX 1060 graphics card

  • Recommended Specs

  • Intel i7-9700K

  • 16GB of RAM

  • RTX 2060 or AMD RX 5700 graphics card

  • Tip: Installing the game on an SSD instead of a traditional hard drive will speed up load times and improve overall performance.

    General PC Tweaks for FPS in FragPunk

    Even before jumping into the game settings, some easy PC tweaks can help:

  • Update your graphics drivers. NVIDIA and AMD release updates all the time that boost game performance.

  • Close unnecessary background apps like web browsers, Discord overlays, or anything else hogging your RAM.

  • Set your power plan to "High Performance" in Windows settings. This keeps your CPU running at full tilt.

  • Enable Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling in Windows. It helps with rendering efficiency.

  • Keep your PC cool. Clean out dust, ensure good airflow, and use quality thermal paste if you're up for it.

  • Best Display Settings for FragPunk

  • Display Ratio: 16:9

  • Recommended for most monitors, this aspect ratio ensures a wide field of view without stretching the image.

  • Display Resolution: 1920x1080

  • Full HD (1080p) strikes a balance between clarity and performance. It’s ideal if you want high frame rates without compromising too much on visual quality.

  • FOV (Field of View): 110

  • A wider FOV allows you to see more of your surroundings, which is crucial in fast-paced gameplay. Just be aware that higher FOV can make objects appear smaller.

    Visual Enhancements

  • Filter: VIVID

  • Choose Vivid for bright, vibrant colors that make the game world pop without overly saturating the image.

  • Post Processing Intensity: NORMAL

  • Keeps post-processing effects like bloom and motion blur at a balanced level, avoiding unnecessary distractions.

    FragPunk Frame Rate Settings

  • Menu Frame Rate Limit: 60 FPS

  • Limits the frame rate in menus to conserve GPU usage when you’re not actively playing.

  • Gameplay Frame Rate Limit: 240 FPS

  • Maximize your performance potential by setting a high frame rate cap. This is especially important for competitive players who rely on smoother gameplay and faster response times.

  • Out of Focus Framerate Limit: 30 FPS

  • Reduces resource consumption when the game isn’t the active window, helping with multitasking and overall system efficiency.

    Image Quality Adjustments

  • Brightness: 1

  • Keeps visuals balanced without overexposing dark areas or washing out bright ones.

  • Sharpen: 1.5

  • Enhances image clarity, making textures and enemies appear crisper and easier to spot.

    Sync and Tearing Prevention

  • Vertical Sync: OFF

  • Disabling V-Sync reduces input lag, giving you quicker response times. Ideal if your monitor supports higher refresh rates and you don’t experience screen tearing.

  • Anti-Tearing: ON

  • Activates technologies like G-SYNC or FreeSync to eliminate screen tearing without the input lag of V-Sync. Make sure your monitor supports this feature!

    Best Graphics Settings for FragPunk

    Recommended Minimalist Graphics Settings

  • Minimalist Graphics: ON

  • This setting activates the minimalist mode, streamlining the game's visuals for clarity and performance. It reduces visual noise, making it easier to focus on what's important—your gameplay.

  • Material Complexity: SIMPLIFIED

  • Simplifying material textures reduces unnecessary detail in surfaces and objects. This not only boosts performance but makes enemy outlines and interactive elements stand out more.

  • Light Complexity: SIMPLIFIED

  • By lowering light complexity, you'll minimize distracting lighting effects and improve visibility in dark or overexposed areas. It can also help stabilize your frame rate in lighting-intensive scenes.

  • Scene Saturation: SIMPLIFIED

  • Simplified saturation balances the color palette, making the environment less overwhelming while ensuring that enemies and objectives are still clearly visible.

  • Effects Complexity: MINIMALIST

  • Choosing a minimalist approach for effects reduces visual clutter from explosions, particles, and weather effects. This can help you stay focused during chaotic moments in-game.

    DLSS & FSR (If Available)

  • If you have an NVIDIA RTX card, turning on DLSS can give you a big FPS boost. Use the Performance mode for the highest gains.

  • If you’re on an AMD card, FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution) is your go-to. It works on NVIDIA cards too, so check if FragPunk supports it and enable it.

  • Advanced Tweaks

  • Enable NVIDIA Reflex or AMD Anti-Lag if available. Both reduce input lag and make aiming snappier.

  • Lower Render Resolution to 90-95% if you’re really struggling with FPS.

  • Turn off Motion Blur. It’s just not helpful in competitive shooters.

  • Optimize Mouse and Keyboard for Speed

    Your input settings matter too:

  • Set your mouse DPI to around 800-1200 for a balance between speed and accuracy.

  • Use the highest polling rate your mouse supports, usually 1000Hz, for smoother inputs.

  • Customize keybinds so they’re comfortable and efficient. Quick reactions win games.

  • Helpful Software for More FPS

    You can also get a little help from third-party tools:

  • GeForce Experience can auto-optimize games, though sometimes manual tweaking is better.

  • Razer Cortex or MSI Dragon Center offer “game booster” modes that free up RAM and kill background tasks.

  • CapFrameX or OCAT are useful if you want to benchmark your system more deeply.

  • Conclusion

    There’s no magic button for perfect FPS. What works for one setup might not work for another. Start with these recommended settings and adjust based on what feels good and runs smoothly on your rig.

    Lower settings often lead to more consistent wins because smoother FPS means better reactions.
