✅ Yes

~63 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The ROG Ally / Legion Go (Z1 Extreme) is a handheld card with 4GB of VRAM, and South of Midnight is a demanding, graphically heavy game.

1080p	38	63
1440p	23	58
4K	13	33

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

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

At 1080p expect around 63 FPS, at 1440p about 58 FPS, and at 4K roughly 33 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 FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
