Estimated average fps by resolution and preset.
Our estimate puts the Radeon RX 7800 XT at about 87 fps on High at 1080p in Gears of War: E-Day, which means it runs well. On Low the same card manages about 166 fps, and on Ultra about 63.
The graphics card is the limit here, so lowering the resolution or the quality preset is what raises your frame rate.
For a steady 60 fps, our estimate says: 1080p: Ultra (about 63 fps); 1440p: High (about 63 fps); 4K: Low (about 66 fps).
Gears of War: E-Day lists 12 GB of RAM (recommending 16 GB) and a processor of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 class. Our estimate assumes a processor that does not limit the Radeon RX 7800 XT, so enter yours in the checker above if it is older than that.
For reference, the next card up in our list, the GeForce RTX 3080, is estimated at 90 fps on High at 1080p, so you have room to raise settings or resolution on the Radeon RX 7800 XT.
Our estimate is about 87 fps on High at 1080p, and about 166 fps on Low. Verdict: Yes, runs well.
At 1080p, Ultra holds about 63 fps. At 1440p, High holds 60 fps. Even 4K is possible on Low.
Gears of War: E-Day lists 12 GB as its minimum and recommends 16 GB. The graphics card does not change that: with less memory than the minimum the game can stutter or fail to start whatever card you have.
