Can the Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) run South of Midnight? (2026)

✅ Yes

~60 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The Intel Arc 140V (iGPU) is a handheld card with 4GB of VRAM, and South of Midnight is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 60 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 29 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	29	60
1440p	18	45
4K	10	26

💡 South of Midnight: The stop-motion look is an art style, not a frame-rate problem - it runs smoothly.

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

At 1080p expect around 60 FPS, at 1440p about 45 FPS, and at 4K roughly 26 FPS with optimized settings. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality.
