Best Cronos: The New Dawn settings for the Intel Arc B570 (2026)

On a Intel Arc B570 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Cronos: The New Dawn runs at roughly 72 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 72FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc B570 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 10GB of VRAM, and Cronos: The New Dawn is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 72 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 72 FPS at 1080p and 67 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.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	72	72
1440p	43	67
4K	25	61

💡 Cronos: The New Dawn: Unreal Engine 5 horror - Lumen GI and Reflections are the heavy hitters; upscaling near-essential at 1440p and up.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — XeSSOff

Cronos supports all three upscalers plus frame generation. This Unreal Engine 5 horror game is genuinely heavy — upscaling is close to mandatory at 1440p and up.

Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS

Surface sharpness. Nearly free with 8GB+ VRAM.

Global Illumination (Lumen)Highbaseline

Lumen drives the game’s oppressive lighting — and most of its GPU cost. High→Medium keeps the mood at a much better framerate.

Shadow QualityHighbaseline

Virtual shadow map resolution. Horror games live on shadows, but High vs Epic is nearly invisible.

Reflections QualityHighbaseline

Lumen reflections on the wet, industrial surfaces of New Dawn. Expensive; Medium still looks convincing.

Effects QualityHighbaseline

Fire, sparks and the Change’s organic particles. Lowering helps in the busiest encounters — burn, remember?

View DistanceHighbaseline

Draw distance — the game is mostly interiors, so this is cheaper than in open-world UE5 titles.

Post ProcessingHighbaseline

Film grain, bloom and the retro-analog look. Cheap to lower without losing the aesthetic.
