When real FPS differs
CPU. In Alan Wake 2 a weak CPU limits FPS regardless of the graphics card — especially at 1080p.
Graphics settings. The table is for High settings. Dropping to Medium raises FPS by 20–40%.
Upscaling. DLSS/FSR/XeSS raise FPS by 30–70% with minimal quality loss.
Game version. Patches and engine updates change performance.

In short
How many FPS in Alan Wake 2?
According to the FPSHQ estimate, in Alan Wake 2 at 1080p High the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 delivers 140–240 FPS (105–175 FPS at 1440p), while AMD Radeon Pro W7700 is enough for 60+ FPS (48–80 FPS). The table below shows the expected average FPS on 26 popular graphics cards at 1080p, 1440p and 4K. Source of the numbers: FPSHQ model estimate (not a measurement); data as of Nov 14, 2026. (model accuracy)
How many FPS does the RTX 3060 get in Alan Wake 2?
The RTX 3060 runs Alan Wake 2 at about 42 FPS at 1080p High and 30 FPS at 1440p. Number source: this pair's measurements at other settings, rescaled by resolution and preset factors.
Which graphics card do I need for 60 FPS in Alan Wake 2?
For 60+ FPS at 1080p High, Radeon Pro W7700 is enough (48–80 FPS) — the most affordable card in the table with that result.
Which graphics card do I need for 144 FPS in Alan Wake 2?
For 144+ FPS at 1080p High you need at least GeForce RTX 5080 (110–190 FPS); on weaker cards, Medium settings and DLSS/FSR help.
Why is my FPS lower than in the table?
Real FPS depends on the CPU (especially in Alan Wake 2), the game and driver versions, background apps and graphics settings. The table shows the graphics card without a CPU limit (as on test benches); the FPS calculator accounts for your CPU.
