What Is Max Pre Rendered Frames And At Which Value Should I Set It In The Nvidia Control Panel?

hi guys. i want to ask you that what is max pre rendered frames in nvidia control panel and at which value should i set it for smoothest and lagfree gameplay.

Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames: If available, this option - previously known as 'Max Frames to Render Ahead' - controls the number of frames the CPU prepares in advanced of being rendered by the GPU. The default value is 3 - higher values tend to result in smoother but more laggy gameplay, while lower values can help reduce mouse and keyboard lag. However extremely low values such as 0 may hurt performance, so I recommend this option be kept at its default of 3 globally, and only adjusted downwards in specific game profiles. Remember, in most cases mouse lag is due to low framerates, so adjusting this option is not an automatic cure to lag issues, nor should it be the first thing you try. Finally, it only works in DirectX games, not OpenGL games.

The higher you set it it'll make your games look smoother but will cause input lag ( aimed for lower performance card?)
set it lower to decrease input lag but that'll make the gpu works harder

try setting it on lower number first and see the effect from gradually raising it

I had this problem in the past, but don't worry, you'll get your computer in the future. things just happen and you'll just notice that you are already there
