On a AMD Radeon 890M (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Sid Meier’s Civilization VII runs at roughly 66 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 49FPS 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 Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is a relatively light game to run. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 66 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 49 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 66 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 39 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
