Baldur's Gate 3 benchmark on GTX 1660: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Baldur's Gate 3 FPS with a GTX 1660 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 40FPS min 35Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor | 10FPS min 9Unplayable |
| High | 52FPS min 46Acceptable | 35FPS min 31Acceptable | 13FPS min 12Unplayable |
| Medium | 68FPS min 60Good | 46FPS min 41Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| Low | 88FPS min 78Good | 59FPS min 52Acceptable | 23FPS min 21Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 36% | GPU 57% | GPU 83% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1660. There is 5% 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 Baldur's Gate 3 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 1660 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 40 | 50 | 58 |
| 1440p | 27 | 36 | 45 |
| 4K | 10 | 15 | 19 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1660 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the GTX 1660 is what caps the frame rate in Baldur's Gate 3. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1660 Enough for Baldur's Gate 3?
The GTX 1660 delivers 40 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Baldur's Gate 3. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 27 FPS and at 4K 10 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
