~78 FPS at 1440p with optimized settings

The AMD RX 6700 XT is a strong 1440p card with 12GB of VRAM, and Rust is a moderately demanding game. Paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU it averages about 78 FPS at 1440p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 78 FPS with everything on High.

💡 Rust: Large servers lean on the CPU; lower Object Draw Distance first.

At 1080p expect around 129 FPS, at 1440p about 78 FPS, and at 4K roughly 62 FPS with optimized settings. Rust doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
