Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PC Stuttering Solutions
Lower Graphics Settings
*Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth* is a graphically intensive game that requires your PC to meet the recommended system specifications to avoid stuttering. If your system only meets the minimum requirements, you should adjust your graphics settings accordingly. Access the game's menu, navigate to the graphics options, and start with the lowest settings. Gradually increase them as you monitor the game's performance to find the optimal balance.
Consider switching your Display Sync Technology to VRR, as some users have found this reduces lag and stutter. Be aware that this may introduce some visual fragmentation.
Update Your GPU Driver
Ensuring your GPU driver is up to date can significantly enhance performance. New drivers often include optimizations for recent games. Nvidia users can update their drivers through GeForce Experience by clicking on the 'Drivers' option on the left side. AMD users should open AMD Adrenalin Edition, where the main menu will indicate if an update is available.

Use Mods
Mods can be a valuable tool in combating stutter issues in *Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth*. Two recommended mods are Fantasy Optimizer and Ultimate Engine Tweaks, both of which can enhance game performance. To use these mods, create a mod folder in the game's directory and add the mod files. For easier management, consider using Vortex Mod Manager from Nexus Mods. Note that Ultimate Engine Tweaks requires FFVIIHook to function.
Change Your Nvidia Settings
Nvidia users have an additional tweak at their disposal to reduce stuttering. In the Nvidia Control Panel, enable V-Sync and G-Sync in the Graphics section, but remember to disable V-Sync within the game itself. Additionally, set the Low Latency Mode to 'On' or 'Ultra' for the best results.
By implementing these solutions, you should be able to mitigate the stuttering issues in *Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth* and fully immerse yourself in the game's world.
*Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is available now on PlayStation and PC.*
