Will meeting minimum guarantee smooth play?
No specific frame-rate guarantee accompanies the published minimum. In its 1.0 announcement, the developer says it used technologies including Nanite and Lumen and warns that a machine below the minimum specification may not perform smoothly. Treat the listed components as an eligibility baseline and adjust settings to your own hardware.
What should Radeon users do if performance is poor?
The developer’s post-launch update specifically asks Radeon users experiencing poor performance to send reports so the team can investigate the out-of-the-box experience. The notice does not identify a universal fix or promise that a particular graphics setting solves every case. Check current updates and provide your GPU and system details when reporting the issue.
