---|---|---|---|
Widescreen resolution | |||
Multi-monitor | |||

Field of view (FOV) | 40-140°. | ||
Windowed | |||
Borderless fullscreen windowed | |||
Anisotropic filtering (AF) | Only available in DirectX 11. | ||
Anti-aliasing (AA) | FXAA enabled by default.[3] Change to Normal graphics preset to turn off AA. In DirectX 11, it is possible to switch off AntiAliasing in the Graphics Options menu. | ||
Vertical sync (Vsync) | |||
60 FPS | |||
120+ FPS | At 120 FPS, the engine renders each frame twice (graphics engine is bound to physics engine (which runs at 60 ticks/s) with no working interpolation), so the real framerate is limited to 60. This also causes higher input lag and framerates below 60 to feel a lot less smooth. You can test this by using Cheat Engine to run the game at a lower speed.[citation needed] | ||
High dynamic range display (HDR) | See the glossary page for potential alternatives. |
- Render quality limited to presets (Normal, High, Extreme) in DirectX 9. In DirectX 11 it is possible to change various settings.
