Best Age of Empires IV settings for the AMD RX 7600 (2026)

On a AMD RX 7600 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Age of Empires IV runs at roughly 126 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 126FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7600 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Age of Empires IV is a relatively light game to run. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it flies at 1080p — about 126 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 126 FPS at 1080p and 119 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 67 FPS at 4K. 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	126	126
1440p	120	119
4K	68	67

CPU-bound: in Age of Empires IV, a Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU caps you near 126 FPSregardless of graphics settings — lowering them won't raise your frame rate much here.

💡 Age of Empires IV: Late-game battles with hundreds of units are CPU-bound - a fast CPU matters more than the GPU here.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSROff

Age of Empires IV has no DLSS, but the resolution-scale slider is the main GPU lever. Note late-game battles with hundreds of units are usually CPU-bound.

Texture DetailUltra-1% FPS

Surface sharpness — cheap and safe on 6GB+ VRAM.

Shadow QualityMediumbaseline

Shadow resolution across the map — Medium is a strong trim in a zoomed-out RTS view.

Physics & EffectsMediumbaseline

Arrow volleys, siege debris and destruction — this spikes during big fights. Medium keeps late-game battles smooth.

Geometry DetailHighbaseline

Unit and building model detail. High looks sharp at normal zoom.

Water QualityMediumbaseline

Reflections and water simulation. Medium is fine unless you play water-heavy maps.
