Battlefield 2042 benchmark on RTX 5070: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Battlefield 2042 FPS with a RTX 5070 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 152FPS min 92Excellent | 125FPS min 82Excellent | 75FPS min 65Good |
| High | 198FPS min 119Excellent | 163FPS min 107Excellent | 97FPS min 84Good |
| Medium | 258FPS min 156Excellent | 213FPS min 140Excellent | 127FPS min 110Excellent |
| Low | 334FPS min 201Excellent | 275FPS min 180Excellent | 164FPS min 143Excellent |
| 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 5070. 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 5070 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 152 | 190 | 220 | 323 |
| 1440p | 125 | 169 | 206 | 287 |
| 4K | 75 | 109 | 139 | 185 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 5070 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 5070 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 5070 Enough for Battlefield 2042?
The RTX 5070 delivers 152 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 75 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
