Best Dying Light 2 Stay Human settings for the AMD RX 590 (2026)

On a AMD RX 590 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dying Light 2 Stay Human runs at roughly 62 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 Dying Light 2 Stay Human 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 36 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 47 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 27 FPS at 4K. Dying Light 2 Stay Human offers ray tracing, but the AMD RX 590 isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Dying Light 2 Stay Human 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.

💡 Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Open-world parkour with heavy foliage; full ray-traced GI is very demanding - turn RT off first.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Dying Light 2 supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest free FPS boost — enable it first, and it is basically required if you want ray tracing.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
RT lighting transforms the city but is very heavy — Global Illumination is the most demanding option. Off (or Reflections only) keeps FPS high on most cards.
Foliage QualityLow+12% FPS
Density and detail of plants and trees across the open world — one of the heaviest non-RT settings. Medium is the value pick.
Contact ShadowsOffbaseline
Adds fine extra shadows where objects meet surfaces. Costly for a subtle effect — turn it off first for free frames.
Shadow Map SizeMediumbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. Medium looks close to High while running noticeably faster.
Particles QualityMediumbaseline
Smoke, sparks and combat effects. Drops most during fights — Medium keeps things steady.
Ambient OcclusionLowbaseline
Soft contact shading in corners and crevices. Low is a cheap middle ground.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
