Best Avowed settings for the AMD RX 470 (8GB) (2026)

On a AMD RX 470 (8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Avowed runs at roughly 60 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 26FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 470 (8GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Avowed is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 60 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 26 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 60 FPS at 1080p and 44 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 25 FPS at 4K. Avowed offers ray tracing, but the AMD RX 470 (8GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Avowed 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.

Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Avowed (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 is demanding.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Switches Lumen to hardware ray tracing for nicer reflections and GI. Heavy - Off is fine for high FPS.
Global Illumination QualityLow+12% FPS
Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Reflection QualityMedium+4% FPS
Reflections on water and shiny surfaces. High is a clean trade.
Shading QualityMedium+3% FPS
Material and lighting shading detail. High is a clean, cheap trade over Epic.
