Starfield Optimization
Are you having a hard time getting a decent frame rate in Starfield? Here are some useful tips that you need to try:
- If you’re getting an FPS drop while playing Starfield, try running the game in windowed mode.
- Lowering your in-game graphics settings will increase your frame rate.
- Disable background-running apps and services.
- Prioritize the processing of Starfield. To do that, open the Task Manager > Details tab > right-click on Starfield > Set priority > choose High.
- Update the drivers on your PC. We recommend using Driver Booster.
- Use Driver Booster’s Game Boost option. This will disable background running apps that are not usually needed by Starfield.
How to Monitor Starfield FPS
There are several third-party programs that are capable of showing you the frame rate while in-game. These programs are usually lightweight, and you don’t have to worry about them using too much processing memory. We recommend using any of the following to show the FPS on the screen while playing Starfield:
- MSI Afterburner
- FPS counter
- Fraps
- GeForce Experience in-game overlay
- Steam in-game overlay
If you experience some lag or any performance issues while using any of this software, simply turn it off.
