Project Zomboid on Radeon RX 7900 XT

Well above recommendedEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes. The Radeon RX 7900 XT is well above Project Zomboid's recommended spec. We estimate ~196 fps at 1080p high (range 137–255, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~137 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 20 GB of video memory covers the 4 GB the game requires at minimum. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · low confidence, ±30%

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: ultra preset
144 fps at 1080p: ultra 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 7900 XT back.
Processor needed for ~196 fps: Ryzen 5 5500X3D or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).

Video memory

Radeon RX 7900 XT: 20 GB
Minimum spec: 4 GB (+16 GB headroom)
