Best Assassin’s Creed Valhalla settings for the AMD RX 590 (2026)

On a AMD RX 590 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Assassin’s Creed Valhalla runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 38FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 590 is a entry-level graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 38 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 55 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 31 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla 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.

💡 Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: AnvilNext - CPU-bound in crowded settlements; lower World Detail and Vegetation first.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Valhalla supports FSR and a resolution slider. The biggest GPU-side gain — though crowded settlements are CPU-bound.
Volumetric CloudsLow+7% FPS
Cloud detail. Costly at High — Low/Medium is a cheap saving.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
World DetailHighbaseline
Geometry and object detail across the open world. Ultra is a heavy step over High for little gain.
ClutterHighbaseline
Ground objects - grass, foliage and rocks. Costly — Medium/High is an easy, near-invisible saving.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks nearly identical to Ultra while running faster.
Water QualityHighbaseline
Reflections and detail on water. Safe to lower with little visible loss.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Low/High keeps the Viking landscapes clean cheaply.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
