Red Dead Redemption 2 on Radeon RX 580

Meets recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes. The Radeon RX 580 meets Red Dead Redemption 2's recommended spec. We estimate ~62 fps at 1080p high (range 50–75, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the low preset (~44 fps on high). Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 6 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

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: high 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 580 back.
  • Processor needed for ~62 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
  • With the recommended CPU (Core i7-4770K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~62 fps.

Video memory

  • Radeon RX 580: 8 GB
  • Minimum spec: 2 GB (+6 GB headroom)
  • Recommended spec: 6 GB (+2 GB headroom)

Cheapest upgrade for each target

Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Red Dead Redemption 2; usually the cheapest.
