Can the AMD RX 9060 XT (8GB) run Sons of the Forest? (2026)

✅ Yes

~81 FPS at 1440p with optimized settings

The AMD RX 9060 XT (8GB) is a strong 1440p card with 8GB of VRAM, and Sons of the Forest is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU it averages about 81 FPS at 1440p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 60 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	100	98
1440p	60	81
4K	34	61

💡 Sons of the Forest: Dense forests are the heaviest load and partly CPU-bound; lower Vegetation Density first.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 98 FPS, at 1440p about 81 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
