    Yes, you read that right. Part of this guide will help you improve your really traumatizing output of FPS but sadly the game isn’t cooperating. The GPUs of most systems- even the eye-watering price tag ones are overheating. This is causing an unwanted throttling so as to keep the system from collapsing. The result? Stuttering with annoying lags in Back 4 Blood. It’s advisable here to limit your fps to a limit that’s not too hard on your eyes and balance between getting you a good game and not feeling too stop-motion-y. 60 FPS is more than sufficient if your system isn’t really in the “recommended” bracket.

    Relocate Back 4 Blood Game Files to SSD

    If your game functions through an HDD, it’s probably best to swap it over to an SSD. You’ll almost immediately see a difference in-game and most certainly fix your stuttering issues in Back 4 Blood. This effectively ends lag as well.

    That’s about it as far as stuttering and lag fixes are concerned. Now bear in mind for the next segment that is improving FPS, almost all of the aforementioned fixes are recommended as well, except for the obvious one (take a guess which).

    To put it simply, you can improve your FPS and shut out FPS drops in Back 4 Blood by running the game on lower graphical settings, ending all background processes and running the game as per the system’s capabilities. Here are some more tips and tricks you can use to reduce fps drops and improve FPS in B4B.

    Disable Overlaying Applications

    Discord, Steam, Epic Games Launcher, Screen Recorders, GeForce Experience, etc. All absorb fragments of system resources to run, which cumulatively takes up some valuable system resources Back 4 Blood could’ve used. Consider disabling all of these overlays unless necessary. You’ll see a slight improvement in your FPS immediately.

    Ending Unnecessary Background Processes

    The task manager is your best pal here. Hold down “Ctrl+Shift+Esc” then end every process that you feel isn’t necessary. However, take note of those processes that are needed to keep the system running. This should most certainly help boost your FPS in Back 4 Blood.

    Post Processing Quality

    The community has posted screenshots, videos and other detailed reports over how decreasing post-processing quality settings has resulted in almost a 1/4th increase in FPS increment at around 23%. Moreover, texture rendering quality decrements can also contribute to FPS boost in B4B with a 7% increase.

You’ll need to ensure that your game receives a stable, steady internet connection in order to smoothly function.

Simply head over to fast.com or speedtest.net to check the same.

    Disable Third-Party Audio Drivers

    There are a few third-party audio drivers that absolutely wreck the game’s FPS output in Back 4 Blood. Consider disabling them if not completely uninstalling them.
