Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap on Radeon RX 5600 XT

Meets minimumEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes, at lower settings. The Radeon RX 5600 XT meets Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~52 fps at 1080p high (range 41–62, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1080p, use the medium preset. Its 6 GB of video memory is below the 12 GB the game recommends. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the GeForce RTX 3060 12GB (~60 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Best settings

60 fps at 1080p: medium preset
60 fps at 1440p: low preset
144 fps at 1080p: not reachable

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 5600 XT back.
Processor needed for ~52 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU: still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~52 fps.
