Performance Analysis
At 1080p high, our model places AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT near 65 FPS in Deadlock. At 1440p, that typically translates to around 48 FPS with similar quality targets. This places the card in the high tier for this title, with a playable experience profile. AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT can run Deadlock reliably, but smart setting choices matter for consistency.
Deadlock is a third-person hero shooter built on Valve's Source 2 engine, featuring large maps, real-time physics, and up to 12 simultaneous players with ability-heavy characters, which pushes both CPU and GPU. The game's combination of MOBA-style lane structures and fast-paced shooter mechanics requires consistent frame delivery, making a mid-range GPU like the RTX 2080 advisable for smooth 1080p play. As the game is still in active development and beta, requirements are estimates and may increase at full release.
AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT supports FSR 3 with Fluid Motion Frames in compatible titles. When Deadlock supports FSR 3, Fluid Motion Frames can significantly boost the perceived frame rate on top of the base estimate shown above.
- Use a medium/high mix and prioritize stable frame times over peak FPS spikes.
- Use selective ray tracing (shadows/reflections) and avoid ultra RT presets.
- Prioritize texture quality and reduce volumetrics/shadows first
In short, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT is a playable option for Deadlock when tuned correctly.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I play Deadlock on a laptop with an integrated GPU?
- Integrated graphics are not supported. Deadlock requires at minimum a dedicated GPU equivalent to the NVIDIA GTX 960, so a discrete graphics card is necessary for playable performance.
- Is Deadlock optimized for AMD hardware?
- Deadlock runs on Valve's Source 2 engine which has broad driver support for both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. AMD cards equivalent to the RX 470 (minimum) and RX 6800 (recommended) perform comparably to their NVIDIA counterparts at the same tier.
