Dead by Daylight on Radeon RX 470
Yes. The Radeon RX 470 is well above Dead by Daylight's recommended spec. We estimate ~99 fps at 1080p high (range 79–118, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the high preset (~69 fps on high). Its 4 GB of video memory covers the 4 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 168 | 117 | 70 |
| medium | 128 | 90 | 54 |
| high | 99 | 69 | 41 |
| ultra | 79 | 55 | 33 |
Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: high preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: low preset
AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon RX 470 back.
- Processor needed for ~99 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU: CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 99.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 470: 4 GB
- Minimum spec: 1 GB (+3 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 4 GB (+0 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Dead by Daylight; usually the cheapest.
