Best Dying Light 2 Stay Human settings for the Intel Arc A380 (2026)

On a Intel Arc A380 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dying Light 2 Stay Human runs at roughly 58 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 27FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc A380 is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Dying Light 2 Stay Human is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 58 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 27 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 58 FPS at 1080p and 36 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 20 FPS at 4K. Dying Light 2 Stay Human supports ray tracing and the Intel Arc A380 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 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Dying Light 2 Stay Human 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.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Dying Light 2 supports DLSS and FSR. The biggest free FPS boost — enable it first, and it is basically required if you want ray tracing.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
RT lighting transforms the city but is very heavy — Global Illumination is the most demanding option. Off (or Reflections only) keeps FPS high on most cards.
Foliage QualityLow+12% FPS
Density and detail of plants and trees across the open world — one of the heaviest non-RT settings. Medium is the value pick.
Shadow Map SizeLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. Medium looks close to High while running noticeably faster.
Particles QualityLow+6% FPS
Smoke, sparks and combat effects. Drops most during fights — Medium keeps things steady.
Ambient OcclusionOff+5% FPS
Soft contact shading in corners and crevices. Low is a cheap middle ground.
Contact ShadowsOffbaseline
Adds fine extra shadows where objects meet surfaces. Costly for a subtle effect — turn it off first for free frames.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. On 8GB cards keep it at High.
