Age of Empires IV benchmark on RTX 3080 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Age of Empires IV FPS with a RTX 3080 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 312FPS min 148Excellent | 261FPS min 133Excellent | 158FPS min 97Excellent |
| High | 405FPS min 193Excellent | 339FPS min 173Excellent | 206FPS min 127Excellent |
| Medium | 500FPS min 238Excellent | 444FPS min 227Excellent | 269FPS min 165Excellent |
| Low | 500FPS min 238Excellent | 500FPS min 255Excellent | 348FPS min 214Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 68% | CPU 62% | CPU 44% |
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 3080 Ti. There is 8% 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 3080 Ti with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 312 | 390 | 452 |
| 1440p | 261 | 352 | 431 |
| 4K | 158 | 229 | 292 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3080 Ti 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 3080 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.
Is the RTX 3080 Ti Enough for Age of Empires IV?
The RTX 3080 Ti delivers 312 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Age of Empires IV. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 261 FPS and at 4K 158 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
