On a Steam Deck (RDNA2 iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Where Winds Meet runs at roughly 49 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 23FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The Steam Deck (RDNA2 iGPU) is a handheld graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Where Winds Meet is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is playable at 1080p — about 49 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 23 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 49 FPS at 1080p and 30 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 17 FPS at 4K. Where Winds Meet offers ray tracing, but the Steam Deck (RDNA2 iGPU) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Where Winds Meet 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.

|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 23 | 49 |
| 1440p | 14 | 30 |
