Best Valorant Settings for Max FPS and Low Lag
The video menu setting by setting with visuals, real test numbers, and player experiences with Reflex and Multithreaded Rendering.
In a game like Valorant, winning or losing a duel can come down to fractions of a second. The right settings raise FPS, cut latency and make enemies easier to see at the same time. We went through the video menu setting by setting, with a visual and real numbers for each.
Can My PC Run Valorant at High FPS?
Valorant is one of the lightest competitive games and relies on the CPU more than the graphics card. Even laptops with modern integrated graphics can run it above 100 FPS with the right settings:
General Settings (With Visuals)
Open Settings → VIDEO → GENERAL and apply the values highlighted in green:
Graphics Quality Settings for Max FPS
This is the most important menu. The colored bars show how much FPS a setting costs when it is set high:

Player Experiences With Reflex and Multithreaded Rendering
Measured latency with Reflex Analyzer: it dropped from about 7–8 ms to 3.5–4.5 ms with Reflex + Boost, on a CPU-limited system at 320 FPS.
Latency halvedSource ↗With Multithreaded Rendering off, FPS dipped to about 260 in heavy moments; with it on, it barely dropped below 300.
Keep it OnSource ↗Another member recommended Reflex On without Boost unless GPU usage stays around 90–95%, since Boost can cause stutter on some systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Valorant stutter even with high FPS?
Stutter with high FPS is usually caused by ping, not your PC, or by a background app causing sudden drops. Try a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi and close unnecessary apps.
Should I leave Limit FPS off?
If your PC produces far more FPS than your refresh rate, the extra frames lower latency, so leave it off. If your laptop runs very hot, cap it near your refresh rate for stable performance.
What is the best Anti-Aliasing setting in Valorant?
MSAA 2x is a great balance for most PCs; in PC Gamer’s test it cost about 19% FPS versus 29% for MSAA 4x. On weak PCs choose None.
Is Reflex really important?
Yes. With an NVIDIA card it is one of the most important settings because it shortens the time between your click and what you see. Start with On + Boost, and try On only if you notice stutter.
