Best Where Winds Meet settings for the AMD RX 470 (8GB) (2026)

On a AMD RX 470 (8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Where Winds Meet runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 29FPS 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 Where Winds Meet is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 29 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 41 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 23 FPS at 4K. Where Winds Meet 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 Where Winds Meet 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.

💡 Where Winds Meet: Unreal Engine 5 open-world wuxia - turn down Lumen first; upscaling is near-essential at 1440p and up.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Built on Unreal Engine 5 with DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The biggest FPS gain — near-essential at 1440p and up.
Global IlluminationOffsaves FPS
UE5 bounce lighting — gorgeous but the heaviest option. Lowering or disabling it is a major gain on mid-range and laptop GPUs.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is a big saving over Epic with little loss.
Reflection QualityLow+8% FPS
Reflections on water and lacquered surfaces — a real cost across the wuxia landscapes. Medium is a clean trade.
Effects QualityLow+7% FPS
Combat and weather effects. Drops most in fights — lower it to stay steady.
View DistanceMedium+6% FPS
How far the open world renders. Heavy and partly CPU-bound in busy towns.
Vegetation QualityMedium+4% FPS
Density of grass and trees — one of the highest-impact settings. Medium/High is an easy, near-invisible saving.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
