The AMD Radeon Vega 8 (iGPU) is a entry-level card with 2GB of VRAM, and Total War: Warhammer III is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 31 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 13 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	13	31
1440p	8	19
4K	4	11

💡 Total War: Warhammer III: Massive battles are very CPU-heavy; lower Unit Detail first.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 31 FPS, at 1440p about 19 FPS, and at 4K roughly 11 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
