How to Increase League of Legends FPS

In-Game Settings:​

1. Video Settings:
   • Resolution: Lowering it can improve FPS, but it might also reduce visual clarity.
   • Graphics Quality: Set to 'Low' or 'Very Low'.
   • Character Inking: Turning this off might improve FPS.
   • Shadows: Disable them or set to 'Low'.
   • Effects Quality, Environment Quality, and Character Quality: Set these to 'Low' or 'Medium'.
   • Anti-Aliasing: Disable it.
   • V-Sync: Turn off V-Sync as it can cap your FPS, though it prevents screen tearing.
   • Frame Rate Cap: You can set this to 'Uncapped', but note that this can sometimes cause more fluctuations in FPS.
2. Audio Settings:
   • Lowering the quality or turning off unnecessary sounds can help.

System Optimizations:​

1. Update Graphics Drivers: Always ensure you have the latest drivers installed for your graphics card, whether NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel.
2. Close Background Applications: Running apps can use up valuable resources. Close unnecessary programs and browser tabs.
3. High-Performance Mode: Ensure your computer's power plan is set to 'High Performance'.
4. Clean Your PC: Overheating can reduce performance. Dust off your PC internals and ensure it's in a well-ventilated area.
5. Optimize Windows Settings: Disable special effects and animations in Windows. Go to System Properties -> Advanced -> Performance Settings -> Adjust for best performance.
6. Overclocking: Overclock your GPU or CPU. This can increase performance but might produce additional heat. It can also reduce the lifespan of your components if not done correctly.
7. Check for Malware: Use a reputable antivirus program to scan your system. Malware can slow down your system.
8. Upgrade Hardware: If you're using older hardware, consider upgrading. Even a modest GPU or additional RAM can make a significant difference in LoL.
9. Full Screen Mode: Play the game in full screen as opposed to borderless or windowed mode for better performance.
10. Clean Install: If you've been facing consistent issues with FPS, consider reinstalling League of Legends. Sometimes, corrupted files can lead to performance issues.
11. Use Third-Party Software: Programs like Razer Cortex claim to optimize your PC for gaming. While results can vary, some players find them beneficial.
