There are skins in Fortnite that increase FPS. These are the most recommended skins for weaker PCs

League of Legends

It is known that players have more FPS on a completely fresh account, but hardly anyone realizes that the number of frames also depends on the skins.


Fortnite struggles with a similar problem as League of Legends or CS: GO. The more cosmetic items you have, the less FPS you have. It has long been said that fresh accounts without any skins give a little frame boost.

There are also skins that generally have a reputation for increasing framerate. It is difficult to confirm it unanimously, so if you have them, it is worth checking for yourself whether you will feel the difference.

Which skins should increase FPS in Fortnite?

As for the list, these skins are always mentioned:

  • Pitstop,
  • Mogo Master,
  • Soccer skins,
  • Frozen Knight,
  • Maniac.

If you really have weak computers, it is worth considering giving up on glowing pickaxes and animated backpacks.

The most recommended skin is definitely Maniac. There is no evidence of this, not much testing has been done, but players always mention this skin in their guides.

The most important thing is to limit the number of animations on the character. On a good PC, you probably won’t see any difference between a glowing, animated pickaxe, and the basic one. This may already be noticeable on weak hardware.
