Best Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 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), Warhammer 40,000: Darktide runs at roughly 81 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 83FPS 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 Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 81 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 81 FPS at 1080p and 66 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 63 FPS at 4K. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 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.

💡 Warhammer 40,000: Darktide: Dense hordes are CPU-heavy; turn off Ray Tracing and lower Effects first.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest single FPS gain — turn it on first, especially with the screen full of enemies.
Ray Tracing (reflections / GI)Offsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and lighting. Very heavy — turning it off is a large FPS gain on mid-range and laptop GPUs.
Texture QualityExtreme-1% FPS
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
Light QualityHighbaseline
Lighting detail and light-source count — one of the heaviest settings in the lit hive corridors. High is the value pick.
Volumetric FogMediumbaseline
Atmospheric fog and god rays. Medium keeps the grimdark mood for less.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is a strong, cheap step down from Extreme.
Particle / Effects QualityHighbaseline
Gunfire, blood and explosions — the biggest drain when a horde swarms you. Lower it to stay steady in the chaos.
Mesh QualityHighbaseline
Geometry detail of the hive environments. Cheap to lower with little visible loss in a firefight.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Subtle — safe to lower.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom and lens effects. Low is a cheap, clean win.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps surfaces sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
