On a Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Warhammer 40,000: Darktide runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 29FPS 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 Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 29 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 39 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 22 FPS at 4K. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide supports ray tracing and the Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 29 | 61 |
| 1440p | 17 | 39 |
| 4K | 10 | 22 |

Turn on XeSS (Balanced), keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Shadow Quality and Particle / Effects Quality down a notch. The full per-setting breakdown is above.
FPS figures are estimates from a generalized model (hardware tier × game load × per-setting weights), not live benchmarks — real performance varies by scene, drivers and game version.
