Lost Soul Aside is a hack-and-slash RPG with a lot of performance issues. The game is incredibly CPU-intensive, but performs well on modern hardware. Gamers with RTX 50 Series GPUs can expect this title to perform well on their system. Provided they require ample CPU power, a CPU of at least a Ryzen 7 5700X, and a setup with at least PCIe Gen 4.0 for entry-level cards.

That said, there are two ways to play this game: one with full on RT, using cards such as the RTX 5070 and above, and one with full rasterization, using cards such as the 5050 and those up to the 5060 TI.  In either case, the game is incredibly CPU-intensive.

Before you go through these settings and try to achieve high frame rates, please make sure your CPU performance matches our recommendations. This is significantly higher than the recommended Ryzen 5 3600, as suggested by the developers. However, after extensive testing, that is what we concluded.

Currently, the game only supports DLSS for upscaling and frame generation, utilizing the transformer model. On the GPUs, the RTX 5050 and the RTX 5060, you can use these settings alongside DLAA at 1080p, and comfortably maintain a frame rate above 60 FPS. For higher numbers, dialing in frame generation is not recommended because the implementation takes up more FPS than it adds. You can enable Steam overlay metrics and check the frame meter to confirm this.

As a result, frame generation introduces a significant amount of input delay, making the hack-and-slash mechanism feel less responsive. If Xess FG or FSR FG (in an uncoupled state) is supported, then our opinion regarding frame generation may change. Lastly, RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) users can try out 1440p (DLAA) and see how things turn out.

Note: Entry-level Blackwell GPUs operate on a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface. If your system uses an older PCIe Gen 3.0, then entry-level cards will cause issues, due to them operating at PCIe 3.0 x8 mode. However, on high-performance systems like the 10900K or 9900K, PCIe Gen 3.0 will be more compatible with cards that have a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, such as the RTX 5070.

We are explicitly mentioning this because at PCIe 3.0 x8, on a Blackwell card, there will be uncurable micro-stutters. No amount of frame generation or lossless scaling can mitigate hardware bottlenecks. Also, these settings do not guarantee the complete removal of micro stuttering. You can use these as a starting point, customize accordingly, and then you will have a better picture of how your system performs.

The RTX 5070, let alone, has enough horsepower to maintain an average of nearly 100 FPS consistently with these settings at 1440p DLAA. However, it requires a CPU with at least a Ryzen 5 7600 or an Intel Core i5-12600 K to ensure the situation is not a CPU bottleneck.

GPUs such as the RTX 5080 require CPU power comparable to that of the Ryzen 7 7800 X3D or Intel Core i7 14700K, and the RTX 5090 requires the Ryzen 9 9800X3D or a heavily tuned 14900K with DDR5 7400+ low-latency memory.
