a suggestion how to minimize and combine game setting with maximum visuals at 1080p. useful as a silent and energy efficient laptop or desktop game profile.
can be helpful against coil whine!

this is a suggestion how to minimize the use of energy and generating heat while still having nice visuals. very nice for an efficient laptop setup.

you find the ideal  settings for a middle class laptop in the posted two images. tested on laptop. you can also use it for a desktop to save energy.

the example displays the setting for an AMD 6600M laptop.it can hold a constant 30 fps while being able to play in silent mode.
it was the lowest while also most silent and still visually appealing setting i found.

if you own a nvidia card you can experiment also with the dlss option. 

these settings lower the energy consumption of the graphics card but also cpu and other components like monitor! if you don't use them you simply waste energy. if you combine it with lowest possible frame rate of 30 fps you can save a huge amout of energy and cool down your rig! dlss and fsr even support this effort nicely.


you will be surprised how energy efficient the game works with these settings, still offering a nice visual appearance in case you own at least a amd rx 6600m or a rtx 3060 mobile nvidia card. you can try this also on weaker cards if you are aware of vram and performance and other hardware limitations.

feel free to adjust all settings to your hardware. keep the best possible efficiency as the goal in mind! if visuals are not as important you can even lower fsr to balance or performance mode setting. this will also lower heat and energy consumption and increase performance on weaker rigs.

can be helpful against coil whine!
