Best Alan Wake 2 settings for the AMD RX 6700 (10GB) (2026)

On a AMD RX 6700 (10GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Alan Wake 2 runs at roughly 80 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 60FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 6700 (10GB) is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 10GB of VRAM, and Alan Wake 2 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 80 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 60 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 80 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 60 FPS at 4K. Alan Wake 2 supports ray tracing and the AMD RX 6700 (10GB) can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRQuality+35% FPS
Supports DLSS and FSR plus Frame Generation. Practically required for path tracing - the most demanding game of the generation.
Ray Tracing PresetOffsaves FPS
Medium/High enable path-traced indirect lighting - even heavier than Cyberpunk. Even a 4090 needs DLSS plus Frame Gen to hit 60 FPS. Low is a middle ground, or Off for performance.
Texture ResolutionEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. Needs plenty of VRAM - ease off on 8GB cards.
Global IlluminationHighbaseline
Bounced lighting that defines the atmosphere. High over Epic is the key saving.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and accuracy. High is a solid choice.
Global ReflectionsHighbaseline
Surface and puddle reflections. Notable cost but adds a lot to the horror atmosphere.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and film effects that define the look. High is a clean trade.
Volumetric LightingHighbaseline
Light shafts and fog. Heavy for the look - High over Epic is an easy saving.
Volumetric SpotlightsHighbaseline
Volumetric cones from the flashlight and spotlights - central to the mood. Medium is a solid saving.
Terrain QualityHighbaseline
Terrain and far-off detail. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Fog DetailHighbaseline
Atmospheric fog detail. A low-risk saving.
SSAOHighbaseline
Screen-space ambient occlusion - soft contact shadows. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.
Texture Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps surfaces sharp at angles - effectively free, use 16x.
