Best Hogwarts Legacy settings for the Intel Arc A770 (16GB) (2026)

On a Intel Arc A770 (16GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Hogwarts Legacy runs at roughly 78 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 79FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc A770 (16GB) is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 16GB of VRAM, and Hogwarts Legacy is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 78 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 78 FPS at 1080p and 63 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 62 FPS at 4K. Hogwarts Legacy supports ray tracing and the Intel Arc A770 (16GB) 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. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Hogwarts Legacy, so textures can stay maxed. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSOff
Supports DLSS (RTX), FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Enable it first — Hogwarts is demanding.
Ray Tracing (Reflections / Shadows / AO)Offsaves FPS
Hogwarts’ ray tracing is gorgeous but heavy and historically stutter-prone. Keep Off unless you have plenty of headroom and Frame Gen on.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — cheap if it fits your VRAM. Ease off on 8GB cards, especially with RT.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick over Ultra.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Spell and combat effects. Lowering helps in flashy duels.
Foliage QualityHighbaseline
Plants and grass density across the grounds — a real cost outdoors.
Population QualityHighbaseline

Post Process QualityHighbaseline
Bloom and depth of field. Cheap; set to taste.
