Best Cronos: The New Dawn settings for the AMD RX 7600S (laptop, 8GB) (2026)

On a AMD RX 7600S (laptop, 8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Cronos: The New Dawn runs at roughly 77 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 58FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7600S (laptop, 8GB) is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Cronos: The New Dawn 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 77 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 58 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 77 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 50 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Cronos: The New Dawn 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.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	58	77
1440p	35	61
4K	20	50

💡 Cronos: The New Dawn: Unreal Engine 5 horror - Lumen GI and Reflections are the heavy hitters; upscaling near-essential at 1440p and up.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — FSRQuality+35% FPS

Cronos supports all three upscalers plus frame generation. This Unreal Engine 5 horror game is genuinely heavy — upscaling is close to mandatory at 1440p and up.

Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS

Surface sharpness. Nearly free with 8GB+ VRAM.

Global Illumination (Lumen)Highbaseline

Lumen drives the game’s oppressive lighting — and most of its GPU cost. High→Medium keeps the mood at a much better framerate.

Shadow QualityHighbaseline

Virtual shadow map resolution. Horror games live on shadows, but High vs Epic is nearly invisible.

Reflections QualityHighbaseline

Lumen reflections on the wet, industrial surfaces of New Dawn. Expensive; Medium still looks convincing.

Effects QualityHighbaseline

Fire, sparks and the Change’s organic particles. Lowering helps in the busiest encounters — burn, remember?

View DistanceHighbaseline

Draw distance — the game is mostly interiors, so this is cheaper than in open-world UE5 titles.

Post ProcessingHighbaseline

Film grain, bloom and the retro-analog look. Cheap to lower without losing the aesthetic.
