Hogwarts Legacy | ULTIMATE OPTIMIZATION GUIDE And BEST SETTINGS
⚪️1) ANTI-ALIASING
DLAA (if you have nvidia card) is the best option for quality
going from TAA LOW to TAA HIG drop fps by 10%
and DLAA performs similarly to TAA hig.
if you want to play at your native resolution I recommend DLAA if you can use it and if not stay with TAA high
⚪️2) DEPTH OF FIELD
if you like this effect don't worry about performance and keep it on (2-3 fps drop)
⚪️3) EFFECT QUALITY
when you use a higher option during a fight you will create more particles and this creates an impact on performance. ultra settings cost up to 18% performance drop.
here I recommend medium or high.
as you can see this option also determines the quality of the screen space reflection but for some reasons high you see better than ultra so I advise you not to use ultra as mentioned above.
⚪️4) MATERIAL QUALITY
low or ultra this setting has no impact on performance so I recommend ultra
⚪️5) FOG QUALITY
this option does not involve a large loss of performance (a maximum of a 5% at ultra)
for this reason I recommend high or ultra
⚪️6) SKY QUALITY
this option determines the amount of clouds in the sky
Go from low to medium will not cost any impact on performance instead set high or ultra about an 8%. Here I recommend to use medium
⚪️7) FOLIAGE QUALITY
this option increases or decreases the number of foliage. for this has a great impact on performance using a higher option
go from low to medium cost about a 3%. but to ultra can cost up to 18%. here I recommend medium
⚪️8) POST PROCESSING QUALITY
this option changes more a single visual option such as BLOOM and SSAO
here I recommend medium or high as there is no noticeable difference during the gameplay between ultra and medium
⚪️9) SHADOW QUALITY
shadows in this game don’t cost much about 5% from low to ultra.
here I recommend at least high shadows
⚪️10) TEXTURE QUALITY
as you can see there is not much difference in the use of VRAM in the various settings. for this I recommend ULTRA if you have a gpu of 8gb minimum
⚪️11) VIEW DISTANCE QUALITY
this option has a great impact on the overall quality of the game world. as you can see setting the low option makes the nearby objects very ugly
I recommend using high as it will only cost a 10% compared to low
⚪️12) POPULATION QUALITY
even at low the quality of the characters is very similar to ultra. but this option also increases or decreases the density of the characters in the game world .
here I recommend you to use medium or high as the performance does not change even in the most crowded places (max 3%)
⚪️13) CONCLUSION and about RTX
RTX on this game is really broken can cause graphic glitches in closed places or an absurd perfrormance drop even with 3000 or 4000 video cards of nvidia
My advice is to keep it off also because in some areas normal reflections may be better than the RTX set to low or even high
