Fortnite's new performance mode gives a huge boost in frames for low-end gaming PCs

With this week's Epic v. Apple courtroom shenanigans going on, it's easy to miss out on any news coming out of Fortnite itself. While not as interesting as people shouting "free Fortnite" during legal proceedings, the release of Fortnite's performance mode, which will help players on minimum spec'd PCs get a bump in framerates, is still a pretty big deal. pgslot

According to the Fortnite team, performance mode is an "experimental new mode that offers significant performance gains by trading out visual quality to lower memory usage and lighten the load on CPU and GPU." So long as your system meets the minimum performance requirements, you should see a boost in, uh, performance.
