On a AMD Radeon 890M (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dune: Awakening runs at roughly 54 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 21FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The AMD Radeon 890M (iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Dune: Awakening is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 54 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 21 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 54 FPS at 1080p and 33 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 19 FPS at 4K. Dune: Awakening offers ray tracing, but the AMD Radeon 890M (iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Dune: Awakening 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 21 | 54 |
| 1440p | 12 | 33 |
| 4K | 7 | 19 |
