yep that true also now dlss boost some fps in some games

On the current versions of Nvidia drivers, this option has been replaced with Low Latency Mode. Set it to "On" (not "Ultra") which is equivalent to setting maximum pre-rendered frames to 1.

I know this post is old but I do not have this option. I have nvidia gtx 750. I have everything else but not the option of "maximum pre-rendered farmes"

Grushnag its easily to use not this word "retarded" if its not help this guide to you its easy to go in your nvidia panel and choose default settings and done have a nice day

I suppose coding is very much like body chemistry -- everyone has differing results when tampered with :/

It reduced my performance by quite a bit. If this tweak was some magic thing then it already would have been done by default.

+rep added ~20 frames to the crippling outdoor levels, not too retarded eh

yeah but it changes the settings on your gpu only for this game if they have problem with fps drops so if they try it and launch the game and they have the same issues (low fps) the can change it in default so its not danger that if you change the settings on your gpu panel

I have no doubt at all that lowering the pre-rendered frame maximum from its default value has improved the smoothness of your game, but telling people to generally do the same is dangerously uninformed advice. The impact of this setting is highly dependent on the configuration on the system, changing it can have positive impact on the frame pacing, but it's also possible that the opposite happens. In addition to that, other side effects like increased or reduced input lag could occur.

It's probably more reasonable to advice people to not blindly change the setting to an arbitrary value, but rather gradually lower or raise the value and see how the game reacts in terms of smoothness and responsiveness.

Nice guide, +like !
