SBMM Lobby Editorial Performance & Competitive Tuning
Independent laboratory benchmark guidance for competitive frame pacing and low input latency.
Built on Unreal Engine 4, Fallen Order experienced traversal stutter during background world-chunk loading at launch. Modern high-speed NVMe storage and fast multi-core CPUs substantially alleviate streaming bottlenecks across planetary transitions.
| Resolution | Target FPS | Suggested GPU | Preset | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 60 FPS | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 / AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT | High | Smooth 60 FPS combat pacing in tomb environments. |
| 1440p | 120 FPS | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 / AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT | Ultra | High-refresh rate provides ultra-responsive lightsaber parrying windows. |
| Steam Deck (800p) | 30 FPS | Custom AMD RDNA 2 (8 CUs) | Medium | Steam Deck Playable. Lock to 40 FPS / 40Hz with medium visual presets; EA App background process required. |
Competitive Latency & Frame Pacing Optimization
- Cap framerate externally to stabilize frame pacing when traversing large outdoor zones.
- Install on an NVMe SSD to reduce streaming stutter on planet Kashyyyk.
