Best Warzone Settings for better FPS on PC

For starters, it’s key you have the latest graphics card driver installed on your PC. This is a tip that’s mentioned over and over again, but you’d be surprised how much of a difference updating your drivers can have.

How to update graphics drivers in Warzone

Whether your PC has an AMD or NVIDIA card, it’s relatively easy to make sure everything is up to date. To do this, follow these steps:

Updating your AMD driver

Right-click on your desktop.
Select ‘AMD Radeon Settings‘.
From here, click ‘Home‘.
At the bottom left, you’ll see ‘New Updates‘. Click that.
Select the ‘check for update‘ option.
Continue to follow the information displayed on your screen to download the update.
