Best graphical quality or best framerate? Balanced?
I've always wondered how people play their games. I recently jumped onto the PC gaming bandwagon and every new game I play has to be cranked up to the max. I was wondering if this is stupid and I should play games at a good framerate, or if I'm doing the right thing, or if I should meet all settings in the middle and go for a more balanced gameplay experience.

Any tips?

I generally go for balanced, Conan exiles is pretty but I'd rather get a few more fps in a fight than be able to see the wrinkles on the mobs face, as an example.

I always cap my games at 60fps and as high graphical quality as possible. Feel it’s a good balance but that’s just my opinion

For me the game must be perfectly playable and not feel sluggish. Once I have this I don't need anything more from the framerate and I prefer better graphical quality.
30 fps is already ok for me, more than that can be good too but only as long as I don't need to downgrade the image quality too much.

Balanced.

I buy good hardware to make the game look good and keep a stable 60 FPS. No point in playing a modern game with out getting as close to the max graphics as you can, nor it it any fun playing the game as a picture book.

Best performance.
No matter how good or bad it looks if I can't get a framerate that ain't a slideshow then it sucks.

Balanced, usually.
Though if the game requires quick/precise reactions, then best framerate.

if its a single player game ill have the graphic settings balanced out if its a multiplayer game im going all low for less clutter and better fps

I stopped caring about shiny graphics over a decade ago. Unless I notice drops in the performance, I don't even change the default settings nowadays.

here try this game https://store.steampowered.com/app/264710/Subnautica/

also Balanced if it wasn't it'd be like back in the day when i had a pc my bro made that could just run doom 3 but at 7 to 3 fps

For single player and chill co-op games I go for high graphics and decent performance. For high speed multiplayer give me better FPS, no input lag and no dumb effects like bloom or depth of field

Graphics set to high or ultra, with 60 frames per second.

I'm satisfied with that.

In most cases, ultra setting is waste of performance
The visual gain from high/very high to ultra is in many cases non existent, but the 40% loss of FPS is. In some cases you can even put shadow down to medium and get better visuals (correct ones) than on very high ie.

My advice is always to tweak each game individual, but never use ultra (unless it is a old game, then you might gain abit without to much loss) but modern games should just be high/very high combo if you have the machine to run it.

I strive for 100 fps or more in every game if I can, 60 FPS would only be accepted in adventure games or similar. There is also alot of minsc settings that could do fine with being either put off or changed, again without visual loss and with performance gain.

I no longer play games, but i used to always prioritize framerate, so its stable 60, but if i had to reduce settings below medium i wouldnt play it. So, performance?

Anything under 90fps causes me pain, i don't care about graphics.

Hence why I said high or ultra. Depends on the game.

Very high is certainly an option too.

Fair enough
