It makes no difference which processor you have: with the RX 6500 XT in Black Myth: Wukong 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 Black Myth: Wukong 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 6500 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 22 | 28 | 32 |
| 1440p | 12 | 16 | 20 |
| 4K | 5 | 7 | 9 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6500 XT 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 FSR 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the RX 6500 XT is what caps the frame rate in Black Myth: Wukong. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
