Best Deadlock settings for the AMD RX 7700 XT (2026)

On a AMD RX 7700 XT (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU), Deadlock runs at roughly 135 FPS at 1440p with our optimized settings — up from about 135FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7700 XT is a strong 1440p graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and Deadlock is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, it flies at 1440p — about 135 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 203 FPS at 1080p and 135 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 77 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Deadlock: Valve Source 2 - very well-optimised; lower Shadows and Particles for high, steady frame rates in fights.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Source 2 supports FSR and a resolution scale slider. The biggest FPS gain — and in a competitive shooter, frames matter more than a slight sharpness loss.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and detail. Medium is a big saving over High and barely noticeable in a fast-paced match.
Model / Detail QualityHighbaseline
Geometry detail on heroes and the map. Lowering it helps in busy team fights with little visual loss.
Particle DetailHighbaseline
Ability effects and gunfire. Drops most in team fights — exactly when you want stable frames.
Ambient OcclusionOnbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Cheap and subtle — safe to turn off for a few extra frames.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom and lens effects. Low gives a cleaner, clearer competitive image.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine to leave at High on most cards.
Anti-AliasingMediumbaseline
Smooths jagged edges. Cheap; drop a notch if you need frames.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps ground textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
