Best Valorant settings for the Intel HD 630 (7th Gen) (2026)

On a Intel HD 630 (7th Gen) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Valorant runs at roughly 29 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 23FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel HD 630 (7th Gen) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Valorant is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 29 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 29 FPS at 1080p and 18 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 10 FPS at 4K. Valorant doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.

Recommended settings
Anti-AliasingNone+8% FPS
Valorant runs so fast that MSAA 4x is usually affordable — but dropping to 2x/None is free frames if you ever dip.
Cast ShadowsOff+5% FPS
Dynamic shadows. Off gives a small, consistent FPS bump — popular for high-refresh play.
Material QualityLow+4% FPS
Surface shading detail. Tiny cost on modern GPUs — Valorant is almost always CPU-limited.
Detail QualityLow+4% FPS
World geometry detail. Minimal FPS impact; set to taste.
DistortionOff+2% FPS
Heat-haze and smoke-warp effects. Nearly free; pure preference.
BloomOff+1% FPS
Glow around bright lights. Nearly free; pure preference.
Improve ClarityOff+1% FPS

UI QualityLow+1% FPS
HUD and menu rendering quality. Effectively free — leave it High.
VignetteOff+1% FPS
Darkened screen corners. No real FPS cost; personal taste.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Texture sharpness — trivial VRAM use in Valorant. Keep it High.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps long sightlines sharp — effectively free, use 16x.
