Best Returnal settings for the AMD Radeon 660M (iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Radeon 660M (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Returnal runs at roughly 27 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 12FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD Radeon 660M (iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Returnal is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 27 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 12 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 27 FPS at 1080p and 16 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 9 FPS at 4K. Returnal offers ray tracing, but the AMD Radeon 660M (iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Returnal at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Returnal (Unreal Engine 4) supports DLSS, FSR and Nvidia frame generation - a big help with its heavy effects.
Ray Tracing (Reflections / Shadows)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and shadows. Heavy in a fast bullet-hell shooter - keep Off for high FPS.
Particle QualityLow+11% FPS
Bullet-hell particles and explosions - the heaviest setting given how much fills the screen. High smooths intense fights.
Shadow QualityLow+9% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Post ProcessingLow+6% FPS
Bloom, motion blur and depth of field. Cheap; set to taste.
Model QualityLow+6% FPS
Geometry detail of enemies, props and the alien world of Atropos. High is a clean trade.
Volumetric FogLow+5% FPS
Atmospheric fog and haze - core to the eerie mood. Medium is a low-risk saving.
Anti-AliasingOff+4% FPS
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
