Best PC Settings For Diablo 4: Windows Optimizations

If you're a Windows 11 PC user, you can further optimize your PC for Diablo 4. First, turn on Game Mode by accessing the Gaming tab in the Settings menu. This setting helps optimize your PC's resources by turning off other background activities while you play. While you're there, disable Xbox Game Bar, which can cause stuttering and other graphics issues.

In addition, disable Captures such as background recording and recorded audio, which can also eat up system resources. Finally, if you have an NVIDIA 1000 series graphics card or higher, you can enable the Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling option in the Display > Graphics > Default graphics settings menu.

To get the best graphics experience in Diablo 4, it's important to ensure that you have the latest drivers installed for your graphics card. This will ensure that your hardware can run the game at the optimal settings. Additionally, many graphics cards come with a control panel that allows for customized options that can further enhance your gameplay experience. However, for most players, the default settings should be sufficient. Lastly, set your Power Plan to "High Performance," especially if you're playing on a laptop.

And that concludes our guide on the best PC settings for Diablo 4. It's worth noting that some of these optimizations might not be available for previous Windows operating systems.
