Best Path of Exile 2 settings for the AMD RX 7900 XTX (2026)

On a AMD RX 7900 XTX (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-14900K-class CPU), Path of Exile 2 runs at roughly 80 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 80FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD RX 7900 XTX is a flagship 4K-class graphics card with 24GB of VRAM, and Path of Exile 2 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-14900K, it runs well at 4K — about 80 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 205 FPS at 1080p and 142 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 80 FPS at 4K. Its 24GB of VRAM is plenty for Path of Exile 2, so textures can stay maxed. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Path of Exile 2: Endgame maps with lots of on-screen effects lean on the CPU.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSROff
Path of Exile 2 supports DLSS and FSR. A strong GPU-side boost, though dense endgame maps are also CPU-heavy.
Global IlluminationHighbaseline
Bounced ambient lighting. Medium frees real frames in busy scenes.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is a clean trade over Ultra.
Number of LightsHighbaseline
How many dynamic light sources render. Low keeps only environmental lights; High adds lights on projectiles and effects — lowering helps in spell-heavy fights.
Volumetric EffectsHighbaseline
Volumetric fog and skill effects, and PoE2 throws a lot of them. Lowering smooths the chaos.
Water DetailHighbaseline
Water surfaces and reflections. A small, safe saving.
Ambient OcclusionOnbaseline
Soft contact shadows. Cheap; Off for a minor gain.
Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline
Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
