Age of Empires IV benchmark on GTX 1080 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Age of Empires IV FPS with a GTX 1080 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 127FPS min 77Excellent | 93FPS min 65Good | 45FPS min 39Acceptable |
| High | 165FPS min 100Excellent | 121FPS min 85Excellent | 58FPS min 51Acceptable |
| Medium | 215FPS min 131Excellent | 158FPS min 111Excellent | 76FPS min 67Good |
| Low | 279FPS min 170Excellent | 204FPS min 143Excellent | 98FPS min 86Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 45% | CPU 29% | GPU 25% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1080 Ti. There is 21% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Age of Empires IV at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the GTX 1080 Ti with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 127 | 159 | 184 |
| 1440p | 93 | 126 | 153 |
| 4K | 45 | 65 | 83 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1080 Ti has no dedicated hardware for it, so it is an option best left disabled.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the GTX 1080 Ti has headroom to spare in Age of Empires IV: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the GTX 1080 Ti Enough for Age of Empires IV?
The GTX 1080 Ti delivers 127 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Age of Empires IV. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 93 FPS and at 4K 45 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
