: If you have a few dollars to spare on Steam, the independent app Lossless Scaling on Steam is heavily used by the low-end community. It allows you to use spatial upscaling and frame generation on older GPUs that don't natively support modern DLSS or FSR frame generation. Custom Configuration Files

: Toggle between Vulkan and DirectX 12 . Vulkan generally performs much better on older hardware and entry-level graphics cards, but test both to see which eliminates micro-stutters on your specific hardware. 🛠️ External Performance Boosters

: If you are still failing to hit playable frame rates, drop your internal resolution scale below 1.0 (such as 0.75 or 0.5 ). This renders the game at a lower resolution and upscales it, providing a massive FPS buffer. Critical Advanced Settings

: Open your control panel and ensure your power plan is set to High Performance to stop your CPU from downclocking during heavy gameplay.

: Set refraction to Medium and move the physics slider down to its lowest brackets.

This file can be opened with any text editor to manually drop quality variables below what the in-game sliders allow, or to paste in heavily optimized community XML presets. Always make a backup copy of your original system.xml before changing anything!
