Best Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II settings for the AMD RX 6400 (2026)

On a AMD RX 6400 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II runs at roughly 62 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 35FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 6400 is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II is a moderately demanding 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 35 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 46 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 26 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II: Well-optimized IW9 engine (same tech as Warzone) - Shadow Map Resolution is the main lever; Ultra textures want 10GB+ VRAM.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
MW2 supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. The IW9 engine is well-optimized, but upscaling still buys the high frame rates competitive players want.
Particle QualityLow+6% FPS
Explosions, smoke and muzzle effects. Low also makes fights slightly easier to read.
Shadow Map ResolutionNormal+5% FPS
The heaviest normal setting. High looks nearly identical to Ultra in motion.
Screen Space ReflectionsLow+3% FPS
Reflections on wet ground and glass. Many competitive players turn this off entirely — less visual noise.
Texture ResolutionUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. On-demand texture streaming means this mostly needs VRAM, not GPU power — Ultra wants 10GB+.
Ambient OcclusionBothbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Static-only is the usual competitive pick.
TessellationNearbaseline
Extra geometry detail on surfaces. Near is the sweet spot.
Level of Detail (Nearby / Distant)Highbaseline
How detailed models stay at distance. Normal is fine at 1080p; snipers may want High.
