Mastering Avowed's Graphics Settings for Optimal Performance

Avowed boasts stunning visuals, but optimizing your PC settings is key to enjoying them without sacrificing frame rate. This guide provides the best settings for various PC builds, ensuring a smooth and visually appealing experience.

Understanding System Requirements

Before adjusting settings, check if 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 decent FPS. High-resolution, high refresh rate displays demand more powerful hardware. Allow the game to generate shaders uninterrupted on your first run for optimal performance.
