What it does
Bundles the quality of direct lights, lightmaps and lighting calculations. The option can control very different features in different engines.
Games may also call it: Light Quality, Lighting Detail
Decision guide
Lower it when
Lower it when the GPU is near full load and the game cannot hold the target frame rate.
Keep it high when
Keep it high when the visual difference is obvious and the target frame time already has enough headroom.
Handheld advice
On handhelds, reduce this one step at a time and retest at the same TDP, resolution and upscaling mode.
Restart
Usually not required
Some games still apply changes only after reloading a scene or restarting.
Do not overread the meter
The option can control very different features in different engines. This score is an editorial cross-game estimate, not a measured result for every engine.
