Dune: Awakening on Radeon RX 7800 XT
Yes. The Radeon RX 7800 XT meets Dune: Awakening's recommended spec. We estimate ~87 fps at 1080p high (range 69–104, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the high preset (~61 fps on high). Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 8 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |

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 7800 XT back.
- Processor needed for ~87 fps: Core i5-9400F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-10700K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~87 fps.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 7800 XT: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 6 GB (+10 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+8 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Dune: Awakening; usually the cheapest.
