On a AMD RX 5500 XT (8GB) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 3 3300X-class CPU), Dying Light: The Beast runs at roughly 64 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 48FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The AMD RX 5500 XT (8GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Dying Light: The Beast is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it runs well at 1080p — about 64 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 48 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 64 FPS at 1080p and 62 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 39 FPS at 4K. Dying Light: The Beast offers ray tracing, but the AMD RX 5500 XT (8GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Dying Light: The Beast 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 48 | 64 |
| 1440p | 29 | 62 |
| 4K | 16 | 39 |
