On a AMD RX 590 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Doom: The Dark Ages runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 36FPS 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: The Dark Ages is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 36 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 47 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 26 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Doom: The Dark Ages 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 | 36 | 61 |
| 1440p | 22 | 47 |
