The AMD RX 9070 XT is a high-end card with 16GB of VRAM, and Alan Wake 2 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU it averages about 64 FPS at 4K with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 42 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 123 | 121 |
| 1440p | 74 | 73 |
