How to Boost Your FPS
The best methods and optimizations for maximum smoothness on FiveM and RedM in 2026.
Optimization Steps
1
Clear your FiveM cache
Regularly empty your cache folder to remove old temp files. Only delete the "data" folder inside FiveM Application Data.
2
Install an OPTI Pack
Pick one of our packs labeled "OPTI". These packs tweak weather, smoke and shadows to lighten the load on your GPU.
3
In-game settings
Lower "Extended Draw Distance" and disable MSAA. Also set particles to Normal. You'll see an immediate FPS boost.
4
Update your GPU drivers
Install the latest NVIDIA or AMD drivers. An outdated driver can cost you 10-15 FPS on FiveM, especially after a major game update.
5
Limit background apps
Discord, browsers and overlays eat CPU and VRAM. Close anything non-essential during your RP sessions to free up resources.
