Best Avowed settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1650 (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1650 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Avowed runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 22FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1650 is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Avowed is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 22 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 37 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 21 FPS at 4K. Avowed offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1650 isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Avowed at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Avowed (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Practically required - UE5 is demanding.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Switches Lumen to hardware ray tracing for nicer reflections and GI. Heavy - Off is fine for high FPS.
Global Illumination QualityLow+12% FPS
Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest setting. High over Epic frees a lot of FPS.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Reflection QualityLow+8% FPS
Reflections on water and shiny surfaces. High is a clean trade.
Shading QualityLow+6% FPS
Material and lighting shading detail. High is a clean, cheap trade over Epic.
Foliage QualityLow+6% FPS
Plant and grass density in the colourful world. A real cost outdoors.
View DistanceLow+5% FPS
