Best Valheim settings for the Intel Arc B570 (2026)

On a Intel Arc B570 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Valheim runs at roughly 162 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 162FPS 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 Valheim is a relatively light game to run. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it flies at 1080p — about 162 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 162 FPS at 1080p and 118 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 67 FPS at 4K. Valheim doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	162	162
1440p	118	118
4K	67	67

CPU-bound: in Valheim, a Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU caps you near 162 FPSregardless of graphics settings — lowering them won't raise your frame rate much here.

💡 Valheim: Runs on modest hardware, but big built-up bases tax the CPU and point lights — lower those before world detail.

Recommended settings

Vegetation QualityHighbaseline

Density of grass, bushes and trees across the procedural world — the heaviest GPU setting in the Meadows and Black Forest. Medium clears a lot of frames.

Draw Distance (Clutter)Highbaseline

How far ground clutter and world detail render. Lowering it helps most in open Plains and Ocean biomes.

Shadow QualityHighbaseline

Shadow resolution and range. Valheim's dynamic day/night shadows are a real cost — Medium looks fine.

Anti-AliasingTAAbaseline

TAA is cheap and clean; SSAA supersamples the whole frame and is very heavy. Stick to TAA unless you have headroom.

Point LightsHighbaseline

How many torches, fires and lamps cast real light at once — heavy inside a lit base. Lower it if your longhouse tanks FPS.

Point Light ShadowsOnbaseline

Shadows cast by torches and fires. Turning them off is a big saving in built-up bases at little visual cost.

Ambient Occlusion (SSAO)Onbaseline

Soft contact shadows in corners and under objects. Cheap — leave it on unless you need frames.

What are the best Valheim settings for the Intel Arc B570?

Use a balanced preset, keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Vegetation Quality and Draw Distance (Clutter) 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.
