On a Intel Arc B580 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), War Thunder runs at roughly 126 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 126FPS 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 War Thunder is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it flies at 1080p — about 126 FPSwith 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 126 FPS at 1080p and 89 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 68 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 | 126 | 126 |
| 1440p | 89 | 89 |
| 4K | 50 | 68 |

Use a balanced preset, keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Shadow Quality and Grass / Forest Density 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.
