Best Pacific Drive settings for the Intel Arc A580 (2026)

On a Intel Arc A580 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Pacific Drive runs at roughly 73 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 74FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc A580 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Pacific Drive is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 73 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 73 FPS at 1080p and 68 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 61 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Pacific Drive: Volumetric Fog is the heaviest setting - the Zone's storms are where FPS dips, so tune for the worst case.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSOff
Pacific Drive supports DLSS and FSR. The Olympic Exclusion Zone’s effects are heavy — turn this on first at 1440p and up.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness on the car and world. Nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
Volumetric Fog QualityHighbaseline
The Zone’s ever-present mist and anomaly haze — the heaviest setting in the game. High→Medium is a big win in storms.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution — your headlights cast dynamic shadows at night, which is where this costs most.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Anomaly particles, electrical arcs and storm debris. Lowering helps exactly when the Zone gets chaotic.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
The Pacific Northwest forests lining every road.
View DistanceHighbaseline
Draw distance down the long forest roads. Lowering causes pop-in ahead of the car.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, grain and the retro screen effects. Cheap to lower.
