VALORANT Best General Settings & FPS
Settings the in-game options to the lowest settings, will generally increase your FPS (frames per seconds) and performance.
Valorant Best Settings FPS and Sight
- Set Material Quality to Med
- Set Texture Quality to Med
- Set Detail Quality to Med
- Set UI Quality to Med
- Set Vignette to Off
This decreases visibility and visual clarity so be sure to turn it off - Set VSync to Off
Enabling VSync introduces input lag and you do not want that so be sure to turn it off - Set Anti-Aliasing to MSAA 4x
Enabling MSAA will not cost you much performance and it will prevent blurred edges - Set Anisotropic Filtering to 2x
Anisotropic filtering affects the sharpness of surfaces at oblique angles. You won’t see much of a difference so we recommend using a low setting here - Set Improve Clarity to On
You want the best clarity so we recommend that you enable this setting - Set Enhanced Gun Skin Visuals (First Person) to Off
Purely cosmetic feature, we recommend that you disable this - Set Distortion to Off
This setting decreases visibility and clarity and you don’t want that so turn it off - Set Shadows to On

If you have an Nvidia graphics card, you can tweak your settings even more. These settings require that you open the NVIDIA 3D settings from the NVIDIA Control Panel.
Open the NVIDIA Control Panel (right-click on your desktop and choose it from the menu).

Hey, is there a way to completely disable shadows? I know there is a ingame option for it, but it doesn’t disable the shadows, it just lowers the quality of them. Is there a way to disable shadows completely and maybe even change or disable skybox aka the sky the clouds sun etc.
