Alan Wake 2 benchmark on Arc A580: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Alan Wake 2 FPS with a Arc A580 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 34FPS min 30Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor | 11FPS min 10Unplayable |
| High | 44FPS min 39Acceptable | 31FPS min 28Acceptable | 14FPS min 13Unplayable |
| Medium | 58FPS min 51Acceptable | 41FPS min 36Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| Low | 75FPS min 66Good | 53FPS min 47Acceptable | 23FPS min 21Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 46% | GPU 62% | GPU 83% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
Almost any modern CPU performs the same here: there is only 0% between the slowest and the fastest in the table. If you were wondering whether to upgrade your processor for Alan Wake 2, it is not worth it. 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.
XeSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Alan Wake 2 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 Arc A580 with XeSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | XeSS Quality | XeSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 34 | 43 | 49 |
| 1440p | 24 | 32 | 40 |
| 4K | 11 | 16 | 20 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The Arc A580 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 XeSS 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the Arc A580 is what caps the frame rate in Alan Wake 2. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the Arc A580 Enough for Alan Wake 2?
The Arc A580 delivers 34 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Alan Wake 2. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 24 FPS and at 4K 11 FPS at Ultra quality.
