Far Cry Primal stuttering

Suffering from stuttering or low FPS on Far Cry Primal? Here are some tips to improve game performance.

  • Disable 'Hardware acceleration' in applications such as Discord. This frees up the GPU for the game rather than being used for Discord.
  • The most demanding graphical options in the game, in the following order, are 'Volumetric Fog', 'Geometry, 'Shadows' and 'Terrain'. Try turning these down first for a large FPS increase.
