On a AMD RX 580 (4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Battlefield 2042 runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 33FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The AMD RX 580 (4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Battlefield 2042 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 33 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 43 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 25 FPS at 4K. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Battlefield 2042 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 | 33 | 62 |
| 1440p | 20 | 43 |
| 4K | 11 | 25 |
