Devil May Cry 5 PC version has been doing phenomenal in terms of sales and we absolutely loved the game as well. However, with every PC version of a cross-platform game, there are bound to be some issues. We’ll be going over various fixes to make sure you get the perfect demon slaying experience.
How to Fix Devil May Cry 5 PC Issues
We’ll be going over the detailed fix for each issue below
Fix Devil May Cry 5 Stuttering and increase FPS
The method is relatively simple and safe, but we still suggest making a backup of all the files we’ll edit
- Head over to your main game folder, which should be in
- Steam/steamapps/common/DMC5
- Now open the file named “dmc5config.ini”
- Edit the following sections
- Capability=DirectX12 to Capability=DirectX11
- TargetPlatform=DirectX12 to TargetPlatform=DirectX11
The game doesn’t provide the option to change the DirectX version from 12 to 11 and it’s likely causing issues for some GPUs.

Improve frame times by capping Frame Rate using RivaTuner
- Download RivaTuner Statistics Server,
- input your desired framerate limit in the “Framerate limit” box, and hit enter (the program comes bundled with MSI Afterburner and earlier versions of EVGA PrecisionX).
- Alternatively, those with an Nvidia GPU have the option of Nvidia Inspector, which can also be used to impose a framerate cap, either in a similar manner to RTSS or by way of forcing a different vsync interval (click the small tool icon to open the game profile section).
Improve frame times by changing the display mode
Switching to exclusive fullscreen rather than borderless fullscreen potentially increases frame times.
