In shooting games like Garena Free Fire, Frames Per Second (FPS) plays a crucial role in enhancing your game skills. As a rule, a rate of 30 frames per second is sufficient to play these games casually. But when the players are passionate about the game and want to improve their performance significantly, they should be running their game at 60FPS for smooth game-play.


5 Easy Methods to Fix lag while playing Free Fire

While playing Free Fire, players may have encountered various lag and stutter issues even if their smartphones can run the game at 60 FPS. For those encountering such problems, here are some essential methods to ensure a lag-free experience.

#1 Close the Applications running in Background

Background applications running on smartphones eat up a large portion of the RAM which tends to cause less memory allocation to the game. Free Fire demands more RAM and to fulfil its demand, one must ensure that no other applications are running in the background. By following this, the game can fully utilize the available resources and the optimum rate of FPS would make the gamers' experience better.

#4 Disable the Battery Saver or Low Power mode

In some instances, the low power mode is active in the main settings, which reduces the power consumption to save battery. When this mode is active, the processor runs at a low speed which becomes a cause for the lag. Consider disabling the low power mode, thereby allowing the device to run at its full potential.
