The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
It makes no difference which processor you have: with the RX 5500 XT 4GB in Baldur's Gate 3 the graphics card is always the brake. Swapping CPU would not gain you a single frame — put the money into the card.
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 RX 5500 XT 4GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 29 | 36 | 42 |
| 1440p | 17 | 23 | 28 |
| 4K | 6 | 9 | 11 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 5500 XT 4GB 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.

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 RX 5500 XT 4GB is what caps the frame rate in Baldur's Gate 3. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
