Here are the best settings for gamers with RTX 5060 Ti to play Dune: Awakening at 1440p desktop resolution.
Dune: Awakening’s beta phase started on May 9th and will last until May 12th. The optimization looks very promising. The RTX 5060 Ti has 10-15% of the performance of an RTX 4070. The game is built on Unreal Engine 5.2 and incorporates a pre-shader compilation that helps reduce the chances of stuttering during gameplay.
From observation, the frame time graph is exceptionally flat, which is unlikely for modern-day UE 5 titles. Dune, however, doesn’t use RT but uses Lumen for GI (Global Illumination) and Nanite for geometry. Gamers with the 5060 Ti, both 8 and 16GB models, will find the settings below helpful.
Note: To avoid CPU bottlenecks, pair the 5060 Ti with a CPU that has at least a Core i5-13400F or a Ryzen 5 7500F. The settings below are optimized for the 8GB model, but users with 16GB VRAM may want to consider increasing shadows and texture quality.
