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 9060 XT 8GB back.
Processor needed for ~89 fps: Ryzen 5 3600 or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~89 fps.
