Best Doom Eternal settings for the AMD RX 590 (2026)

On a AMD RX 590 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Doom Eternal runs at roughly 79 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 59FPS 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 Doom Eternal is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 79 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 59 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 79 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 42 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Upscaling — FSRQuality+35% FPS
Doom Eternal (id Tech 7) added DLSS in a later update. The engine is famously well-optimised, so this is mostly a 4K / weaker-GPU lever.

How much VRAM is reserved for textures. Ultra is safe on 8GB; Nightmare wants 10GB+.
Lights QualityUltrabaseline
Number and quality of dynamic lights — the heaviest GPU setting in busy arenas. High/Ultra looks great without the Nightmare cost.
Shadows QualityUltrabaseline
Shadow resolution and filtering. Ultra is a clean step below Nightmare with barely a visual difference mid-fight.
Reflections QualityHighbaseline
Screen-space reflections on metal and blood. High is plenty during the carnage.
Volumetric QualityHighbaseline
Fog, smoke and god-rays. High keeps the mood while trimming a busy scene.
