🎮PS5 Input Lag ReductionCommunity

• 120Hz mode ON (reduces input lag + tearing)

• VSync OFF

• VRR OFF

• Balanced mode recommended

※ Requires 120Hz display. Minor tearing possible but significant input lag improvement

💻PC Input Feel ImprovementCommunity

• DLSS Frame Generation OFF (frame gen causes input lag)

• DLSS Ray Reconstruction OFF

• Graphics preset: Ultra or lower instead of Cinematic

• Target: maintain native 60+ fps

※ Disabling frame generation significantly reduces input delay and inertia feel
