Best Doom: The Dark Ages settings for the Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) (2026)

On a Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Doom: The Dark Ages runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 30FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Doom: The Dark Ages is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 30 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 38 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 22 FPS at 4K. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Doom: The Dark Ages at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
