The AMD Vega 8 (Ryzen 5 2400G / 3400G iGPU) is a entry-level card with 2GB of VRAM, and Dead by Daylight is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 42 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 21 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	21	42
1440p	13	25
4K	7	14

💡 Dead by Daylight: Capped at 120 FPS - aim for a steady 120.

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

At 1080p expect around 42 FPS, at 1440p about 25 FPS, and at 4K roughly 14 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
