- •4. Close unnecessary programs: Chrome, Discord, Spotify, etc.
- •5. End "Background Processes" you don't need
- •6. Keep only Roblox, required antivirus, and system processes
- •Result: Frees 20-50% CPU/RAM for Forsaken
Windows Power Settings
Maximize PC performance:
- •1. Open Control Panel > Power Options
- •2. Select "High Performance" plan (creates if missing)
- •3. Click "Change plan settings" > "Change advanced power settings"
- •4. Set Processor power: Minimum 100%, Maximum 100%
- •5. PCI Express: Link State Power Management OFF
- •6. For laptops: Plugged in settings should match above
- •7. Apply and restart PC for changes to take effect
Graphics Card Settings
Optimize GPU for Roblox:
- •NVIDIA Users: Right-click desktop > NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Add Roblox > Set to High Performance
- •AMD Users: Right-click desktop > AMD Software > Gaming > Add Roblox > Set to High Performance
- •Intel Graphics: Right-click desktop > Graphics Properties > 3D Settings > Add Roblox > Performance mode
- •Set Power Management to "Prefer Maximum Performance"

- •Test both settings to see which performs better on your system
Pro Tip
Test your FPS after each optimization step. Press Shift+F5 in Forsaken to display FPS counter. Aim for stable 30+ FPS minimum, 60+ FPS ideal. If FPS is inconsistent (20-60 fluctuating), focus on reducing graphics quality further.
Network/Ping Optimization
Reduce lag and high ping for smoother online gameplay:
Internet Connection Fixes
Improve network stability:
- •Use Ethernet Cable: Wired connection reduces ping by 10-30ms vs WiFi
- •Close Bandwidth Users: Pause downloads, streams, YouTube during gameplay
- •Router Reset: Unplug router for 30 seconds, replug - clears network congestion
- •ISP Issues: Run speedtest.net - if ping >100ms consistently, contact ISP
- •Server Selection: Join servers closer to your region (auto-matchmaking usually optimal)
- •Port Forwarding: Forward Roblox ports 49152-65535 in router settings (advanced)
Reduce Background Network Usage
Stop applications using internet:
- •Close Steam, Epic Games, Battle.net downloaders
- •Pause OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive sync
- •Disable Windows Update during gameplay (temporary)
- •Close Discord if not using voice (uses bandwidth)
- •Check Task Manager > Performance > Ethernet to identify network hogs
- •Use tools like NetLimiter to restrict background app bandwidth
DNS Change (Advanced)
Improve connection routing:
- •1. Open Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections
- •2. Right-click your connection > Properties
- •3. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) > Properties
- •4. Use these DNS servers: Primary 8.8.8.8, Secondary 8.8.4.4 (Google DNS)
- •5. Alternative: Cloudflare DNS 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
- •6. Click OK, close windows, restart PC
- •Result: Potentially lower ping by 5-20ms
Advanced Troubleshooting
For persistent performance issues:
Reinstall Roblox
Fresh install fixes corrupted files:
- •1. Uninstall Roblox from Control Panel > Programs
- •2. Delete Roblox folder: C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Local\Roblox
