Here is a guide on how to enhance your FPS in New World for both NVIDIA and AMD.
New World Settings
These settings will make your game look bad, however you will get more FPS and will be able to see things more clear. If you wish to make your game not look so bad, I recommend putting some settings on medium/high instead.I have highlighted the settings that are more significant than others, and you may pick and choose what you want to sacrifice for more FPS.
- Bandwidth Mode: High
Recommended high if you have fast internet, otherwise, put medium/low. - Enable Analytics Reporting: Off
- Window Mode: Fullscreen
- Resolution: Native resolution
Your monitor’s resolution. Choose a lower value for more FPS but your game will look blurry - Field of View (Vertical): 50
More FOV, less FPS however a lot of players are unable to play with low FOV - Video Quality: Custom
- Effects details: Low
- Lightning details: Medium
- Object details: Low
- Post processing details: Medium

- Texture details: Medium-High
Choose low if you have a low-end computer - Water details: Low
