Best Total War: Warhammer III settings for the AMD Radeon Vega 3 (Ryzen 3000U iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Radeon Vega 3 (Ryzen 3000U iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Total War: Warhammer III runs at roughly 16 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 6FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD Radeon Vega 3 (Ryzen 3000U iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Total War: Warhammer III is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 16 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 6 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 16 FPS at 1080p and 9 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 5 FPS at 4K. 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	6	16
1440p	4	9
4K	2	5

💡 Total War: Warhammer III: Massive battles are very CPU-heavy; lower Unit Detail first.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS

Total War: Warhammer III supports DLSS and FSR. A free FPS boost - but huge battles are CPU-bound, so don't expect it to fix the frame drops with thousands of units.

Unit DetailLow+14% FPS

Detail and count on individual soldiers - the heaviest setting in big battles (and it leans on the CPU). High is the value pick over Ultra.

Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS

Shadow resolution and range across the battlefield. High looks nearly identical to Ultra.

Grass QualityOff+8% FPS

Battlefield grass density. A real cost in big fights - drop it for an easy win.

VFX DetailLow+7% FPS

Spells, fire and combat effects - heavy in magic-heavy battles. High keeps things smooth.

Tree DetailLow+6% FPS

Tree density and detail on the battlefield. Medium is a safe trim in forested maps.

Water QualityLow+5% FPS

Reflections and detail on water. Medium is plenty.

Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS

Surface sharpness on units and terrain - cheap on FPS if it fits your VRAM.
