How To Enable 120 FPS On PS5 (Easy Method)
24To enable 120 FPS on your PlayStation 5, you’ll need to adjust a few settings on your console and ensure your setup supports it. Here’s a straightforward guide to get you there:
What You’ll Need
A PS5 console.
A TV or monitor that supports a 120Hz refresh rate and has an HDMI 2.1 port (check your display’s manual or specs).
The HDMI 2.1 cable that came with your PS5 (older cables might not work).
A game that supports 120 FPS (not all games do—popular examples include Call of Duty: Warzone, Fortnite, and Destiny 2).
Steps to Enable 120 FPS
Set Up Your Console for 120Hz Output
From the PS5 home screen, go to Settings in the top-right corner.
Select Screen and Video.
Choose Video Output.
Scroll to 120 Hz Output and set it to Automatic. This lets the PS5 switch to 120Hz when a supported game is detected.
To confirm your display supports it, check Video Output Information under the same menu. Look for 120Hz in the list. If it’s missing, your display doesn’t support it, and you’ll need a compatible one.
Enable Performance Mode
Go back to Settings.
Select Saved Data and Game/App Settings.
Choose Game Presets.
Under Performance Mode or Resolution Mode, select Performance Mode. This prioritizes frame rate over resolution, unlocking 120 FPS in supported games.
Note: Some games default to Resolution Mode (higher graphics, lower frame rate), so this step is key.
Adjust In-Game Settings (If Needed)
Launch your game.
Open its settings menu (usually under Video or Graphics).
Look for an option like 120 FPS Mode or Performance Mode and turn it on. This varies by game—some switch automatically, others need manual adjustment.
Verify It’s Working
Play the game and see if it feels smoother. Some games display an FPS counter in their settings (e.g., Fortnite shows it at the top of the screen if enabled).
If your TV or monitor has a built-in FPS display, use it to confirm 120 FPS.
Troubleshooting Tips
No 120 FPS Option? Double-check your display supports 120Hz and you’re using the right HDMI cable and port. Restart your PS5 after changing settings.
Game Still at 60 FPS? Not all games support 120 FPS—check the game’s official specs online.
Flickering or No Signal? Try lowering the 4K Transfer Rate in Video Output settings to -1 or -2 to stabilize the connection.
Once everything’s set, you’ll enjoy smoother, more responsive gamep
