Best Dune: Awakening settings for the NVIDIA GTX 750 (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 750 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Dune: Awakening runs at roughly 25 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 9FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 750 is a entry-level graphics card with 1GB of VRAM, and Dune: Awakening is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 25 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 9 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 25 FPS at 1080p and 15 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 9 FPS at 4K. Dune: Awakening offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 750 isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 1GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Dune: Awakening 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.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Dune: Awakening (Unreal Engine 5) supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS plus Frame Generation. Practically required in the vast open desert.
Ray TracingOffsaves FPS
Ray-traced reflections and lighting. Heavy in a survival MMO - keep Off for steady frames in busy hubs.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Low+13% FPS
Software Lumen bounce lighting - the heaviest non-RT setting. High over Epic frees real FPS.
View DistanceLow+10% FPS
How far the open desert renders - a real cost given the huge sightlines on Arrakis. High is a clean trade.
Shadow QualityLow+9% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the value pick.
Effects QualityLow+8% FPS
Sandstorms, blasts and weather effects - heavy during storms. Lowering smooths them a lot.
Reflections QualityLow+7% FPS
Reflection detail on glass, metal and equipment. High is a clean step below Epic.
Foliage QualityLow+6% FPS
Rock and sparse plant detail across the dunes. A small, safe gain when lowered.
Post ProcessingLow+5% FPS
Bloom, heat haze and depth of field. Cheap; set to taste.
Anti-AliasingLow+4% FPS
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the image clean cheaply.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM. Ease off on 8GB cards.
