WoW Ui Setup & Graphics Guide

A clean, responsive UI helps you react faster, track key info, and enjoy longer play sessions without fatigue

With changes coming in midnight expansion I have decided to ditch a bunch of addons and fall back to the default ui. Below are strings you can use to setup a default layout for both 1080p and 1440p monitors. I also have one for the steam deck / handheld pcs.

1440p Screen UI

Screenshot is to show the layout of all the items. You are best to disable items you don’t need or use along with the action bars. I suggest to enable action bars 1-5. 6 onwards to disable.

Copy and paste the string below

SteamDeck / Handheld 1200×800

Screenshot is to show the layout of all the items. You are best to disable items you don’t need or use along with the action bars. I suggest to enable action bars 1-3. 4 onwards to disable. Screen estate is valuable so you may have to disable other things like arena frames? Works best with addon console port.

Graphics Performance Guides

I followed the following guide and it is really good. I have linked to the best in game setting on the video but the full video and much more details guides for overall tweaks to the pc.

Another setting not covered in guides is to apply sharping with the following command, this is my personal preference. you can tone it down or switch it off.

/console set ResampleAlwaysSharpen 1

One simple trick to make your game look 1000x better. : r/wow
