On a AMD RX 580 (8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 25FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 580 (8GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 43 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 25 FPS at 4K.
