Best Deadlock settings for the AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Deadlock runs at roughly 47 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 Vega 8 (iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Deadlock is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 47 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 21 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 47 FPS at 1080p and 28 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 16 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	21	47
1440p	13	28
4K	7	16

💡 Deadlock: Valve Source 2 - very well-optimised; lower Shadows and Particles for high, steady frame rates in fights.

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

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS

Source 2 supports FSR and a resolution scale slider. The biggest FPS gain — and in a competitive shooter, frames matter more than a slight sharpness loss.

Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS

Shadow resolution and detail. Medium is a big saving over High and barely noticeable in a fast-paced match.

Model / Detail QualityLow+8% FPS

Geometry detail on heroes and the map. Lowering it helps in busy team fights with little visual loss.

Particle DetailLow+7% FPS

Ability effects and gunfire. Drops most in team fights — exactly when you want stable frames.

Ambient OcclusionOff+5% FPS

Soft contact shadows. Cheap and subtle — safe to turn off for a few extra frames.

Post ProcessingLow+4% FPS

Bloom and lens effects. Low gives a cleaner, clearer competitive image.

Anti-AliasingLow+3% FPS

Smooths jagged edges. Cheap; drop a notch if you need frames.

Texture QualityHighbaseline

Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine to leave at High on most cards.

Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline

Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
