On a NVIDIA GTX 1060 (laptop, 6GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dragon Age: The Veilguard runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 40FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA GTX 1060 (laptop, 6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 40 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 58 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 33 FPS at 4K. Dragon Age: The Veilguard offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1060 (laptop, 6GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 40 | 61 |
| 1440p | 24 | 58 |
| 4K | 14 | 33 |
