First impressions of Fortnite

I have read the FAQ and it does not cover this case. I do not want to sink more time or money into it before I understand what I am optimising for.

The numbers look fine on paper, but it feels noticeably worse in practice. Let me know if more detail would help.

Depends on your setup, but broadly if it only happens in one mode, that narrows it down considerably.

Adding to the above: the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.

Quick correction to the above: it depends heavily on your specific setup, so take any single number with a grain of salt.

Same boat here. the wiki number is theoretical; real results are always a bit lower.

Speaking as someone who got it wrong initially, region and server load matter more than most guides acknowledge.

I went through this last month. the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

Short version: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

Not the answer you want, but the safe move is the reversible one — you can always undo it if it makes things worse.

The usual fix here is measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

Had the exact same issue. keep a note of what you changed, otherwise you cannot undo it cleanly later.

That fixed it for me, at least.
