Best Dead by Daylight settings for the Intel Arc B580 (2026)

On a Intel Arc B580 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Dead by Daylight runs at roughly 120 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 120FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc B580 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 12GB of VRAM, and Dead by Daylight is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it flies at 1080p — about 120 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 120 FPS at 1080p and 104 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 79 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSOff
Dead by Daylight (Unreal Engine) supports DLSS and FSR. Helpful, though the game is light on modern GPUs.
Graphics QualityHighbaseline
The master quality preset. Dead by Daylight's in-game menu is deliberately limited — this preset drives texture, effects and foliage detail together (granular tuning needs config-file edits).
Shadow QualityMediumbaseline
Shadow resolution. Many survivors run Low so shadows don't hide the killer.
Post-ProcessingMediumbaseline
Bloom and depth of field. Low keeps the image clear during chases.
Anti-AliasingMediumbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium keeps things clean cheaply.
