Mastering Avowed's Graphics Settings for Optimal Performance

Avowed boasts stunning visuals, but achieving peak performance requires careful PC setting optimization. This guide helps you balance breathtaking graphics with a smooth frame rate.

Understanding System Requirements

Before adjusting settings, ensure your PC meets Avowed's minimum or recommended specifications:

Minimum:

  • OS: Windows 10/11
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or Intel i5-8400
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD RX 5700, Nvidia GTX 1070, or Intel Arc A580
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Storage: 75 GB available space

Recommended:

  • OS: Windows 10/11
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X or Intel i7-10700K
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD RX 6800 XT or Nvidia RTX 3080
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Storage: 75 GB available space

A system between these specs should provide a decent gaming experience. High-resolution, high refresh rate displays demand more powerful hardware. Allow the game to generate shaders uninterrupted on the first run for optimal performance.

Optimizing Basic Settings

These settings significantly impact gameplay:

  • Resolution: Use your monitor's native resolution for sharpness.
  • Window Mode: "Windowed Fullscreen" offers easy app switching. "Fullscreen Exclusive" minimizes input lag.
  • Frame Limit: Match your monitor's refresh rate or use 60 FPS as a compromise.
  • VSync: Disable for reduced input lag; enable if experiencing screen tearing.
  • Field of View: Around 90 degrees provides a balanced perspective.
  • Motion Blur: Disable for clearer visuals, especially during fast movement.
