The Frostbite engine powering Dragon Age: The Veilguard is known to favor AMD hardware. The RX 6700 XT and the 6750 XT are quite capable gaming GPUs. Although they are a bit older now with their RDNA 2 architecture, their raw computing power was unique when released.

Veilguard is a CPU-intensive game, meaning you need a powerful CPU as a pairing to play without stutters. The settings below ensure a smooth gaming experience, provided you use either old or modern CPUs.

A few keynotes to consider:

  • While these cards have 12GB VRAM, Medium texture quality can improve frame consistency in demanding areas.
  • Setting Terrain Decoration to Medium helps prevent stuttering, particularly in dense environments.
  • Turn on Resizable BAR / (SAM) Smart Access Memory in AMD on supported hardware.
  • Ray tracing is supported but significantly impacts performance on AMD cards; selective RT reflections offer the best compromise.
  • Restart the game once or twice if you notice VRAM usage crossing the 12GB threshold.
  • Low GPU usage paired with low FPS indicates a CPU bottleneck rather than a GPU limitation.
  • Set the Level of Detail to Medium if using older-generation CPUs to reduce processor load.
  • Arlathan Forest and Treviso areas can cause significant FPS drops; consider lowering settings when visiting these locations.
  • Shadows and Volumetric Lighting settings have a substantial impact in densely populated areas.
  • The game ships with FSR 2.2 by default, which is relatively outdated.
  • To unlock the best upscaling features and frame generation, it is highly recommended that you install the OptiScaler mod alongside the FSR 3.1.2 mod available on Nexus Mods.
  • Frame generation support isn’t native—it’s enabled through these community-driven enhancements.
  • RX 6700 users can follow the same setup, with slight tweaks to suit their system’s performance profile.
