Battlefield 2042 benchmark on RTX 3090 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Battlefield 2042 FPS with a RTX 3090 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 149FPS min 90Excellent | 125FPS min 82Excellent | 80FPS min 70Good |
| High | 193FPS min 116Excellent | 163FPS min 107Excellent | 104FPS min 90Good |
| Medium | 253FPS min 153Excellent | 213FPS min 140Excellent | 136FPS min 118Excellent |
| Low | 327FPS min 197Excellent | 275FPS min 180Excellent | 176FPS min 153Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 46% | CPU 37% | balanced |
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 i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3090 Ti. There is 12% 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.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Battlefield 2042 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 RTX 3090 Ti with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 149 | 186 | 216 |
| 1440p | 125 | 169 | 206 |
| 4K | 80 | 116 | 148 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3090 Ti 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 DLSS 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.
With that CPU, the RTX 3090 Ti has headroom to spare in Battlefield 2042: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RTX 3090 Ti Enough for Battlefield 2042?
The RTX 3090 Ti delivers 149 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Battlefield 2042. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 125 FPS and at 4K 80 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
