V-sync
FSR
Super sampling
Anti-aliasing

FWIW I am a wheelhouse millennial

V-sync --- sync's the games (often very dynamic) framerate with your monitors (very static) refresh rate, which is like;y 60hz.

So if a game goes above that, say, to 76 FPS, the game will "lock" it to 60fps to sync with the 60 hz of the monitor..

Basically, without getting too deep, enable v-sync unless it's a super old game or a brand new game.

Anti-aliasing. Rounded lines in games will be a series of jagged "steps", like a staircase. The higher the Anti-Aliasing (2x,4x,8x), the smoother the edge. Zero Anti-aliasing makes rounded edges look like stair cases. 8x AA (or even more advanced aliasing techs, which some modern games offer) are even more effective.

dunny what FSR or supersampling is
