Age of Empires IV benchmark on RTX 2080 Super: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Age of Empires IV FPS with a RTX 2080 Super and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 178FPS min 98Excellent | 133FPS min 82Excellent | 64FPS min 56Good |
| High | 231FPS min 127Excellent | 173FPS min 106Excellent | 83FPS min 72Good |
| Medium | 302FPS min 166Excellent | 226FPS min 139Excellent | 108FPS min 94Good |
| Low | 391FPS min 215Excellent | 292FPS min 180Excellent | 140FPS min 122Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 55% | CPU 44% | balanced |
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 RTX 2080 Super. There is 15% 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.
DLSS 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 RTX 2080 Super with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 178 | 223 | 258 |
| 1440p | 133 | 180 | 219 |
| 4K | 64 | 93 | 118 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 2080 Super does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
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 RTX 2080 Super 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.
Is the RTX 2080 Super Enough for Age of Empires IV?
The RTX 2080 Super delivers 178 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Age of Empires IV. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 133 FPS and at 4K 64 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
