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 R9 390 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 24 | 30 | 35 |
| 1440p | 15 | 20 | 25 |
| 4K | 6 | 9 | 11 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The R9 390 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.
