This game needs an FPS limiter
Title. Is there any news about this? This is a basic feature almost every game has except bf2042. They need to add it asap.

@RaginSam you can set this in your nvidia control panel under manage 3d settings dont change global just change the per game options if the game does not appear you can add it.
in the list of options there is one for fps limit change that to 140 under the battlfield profile and that should set it for you.

@N00bdeagle I’ll check it out. From my understanding it’s always best to limit FPS within the game though. It would still be beneficial to have an option in game.
- @RaginSam i wouldnt knock back an ingame option - but setting it at driver level is even better.
Driver level fps limiters add 1 frame of lag compared to in-game fps limiters.
Why limit the FPS?
- @N00bdeagle It’s not better to do that at the “driver” level. The game is sending information, then it gets processed after, which actually adds latency. It’s not a driver thing.
- @RaginSam my understanding was
Kernel -> driver -> application so driver should be less latency but its not adding enough that you should be really concerned with it.
gsync shouldnt require you do do any thing locking fps under refresh rate was a trick to stop tearing and not use vsync , gsync and free sync have removed this issue but limiting fps is still good to save power.
- @N00bdeagle No, it is not better to set it in the driver, as it gives more input latency vs capping fps within the game itself...
