Alan Wake 2 benchmark on RX 6800: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Alan Wake 2 FPS with a RX 6800 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 59FPS min 51Acceptable | 49FPS min 43Acceptable | 29FPS min 26Poor |
| High | 77FPS min 67Good | 63FPS min 55Good | 38FPS min 34Acceptable |
| Medium | 101FPS min 88Good | 83FPS min 73Good | 49FPS min 43Acceptable |
| Low | 130FPS min 113Excellent | 107FPS min 94Good | 64FPS min 57Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 22% | GPU 54% |
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 i5-10400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 6800. There is 9% 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 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 RX 6800 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 59 | 74 | 86 |
| 1440p | 49 | 66 | 81 |
| 4K | 29 | 42 | 54 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6800 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 FSR 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.
The RX 6800 and that processor are well matched in Alan Wake 2: neither clearly holds the other back, so the table figures are a fair reflection of the pair. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RX 6800 Enough for Alan Wake 2?
The RX 6800 delivers 59 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Alan Wake 2. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 49 FPS and at 4K 29 FPS at Ultra quality.
