Fix Abiotic Factor Low FPS and Stuttering

KitsuneGuide Watch on YouTube ↗

You have tried dropping every setting to Low, but Abiotic Factor is still stuttering and your frame rate remains stuck. It is frustrating to have a modern system bogged down by a few unoptimized game settings. Let's get your performance back to where it should be.

Why this happens

Abiotic Factor suffers from poor optimization with Global Illumination enabled, and the default DirectX 12 implementation often conflicts with Windows GPU scheduling.

Steps

  1. 01
    Launch Abiotic Factor and navigate to the game settings menu.
  2. 02
    Locate Global Illumination and set it to Off.
  3. 03
    If the issue persists, open Steam and right-click Abiotic Factor in your library.
  4. 04
    Select Properties, go to the General tab, and enter -dx11 into the Launch Options field.
  5. 05
    Right-click your desktop and select Display Settings to open your Windows graphics configuration.
  6. 06
    Select Advanced graphics settings and toggle Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling to Off.
  7. 07
    Restart your computer to apply the graphics scheduling changes.
