Borderlands 4 benchmark on GTX 1650: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Borderlands 4 FPS with a GTX 1650 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 18FPS min 16Poor | 11FPS min 10Unplayable | 5FPS min 4Unplayable |
| High | 24FPS min 21Poor | 15FPS min 13Poor | 6FPS min 5Unplayable |
| Medium | 31FPS min 28Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor | 7FPS min 6Unplayable |
| Low | 40FPS min 36Acceptable | 25FPS min 22Poor | 10FPS min 9Unplayable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 71% | GPU 82% | GPU 93% |
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 GTX 1650 in Borderlands 4 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 Borderlands 4 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 GTX 1650 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 18 | 23 | 26 |
| 1440p | 11 | 15 | 18 |
| 4K | 5 | 7 | 9 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1650 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.
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 GTX 1650 is what caps the frame rate in Borderlands 4. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1650 Enough for Borderlands 4?
The GTX 1650 delivers 18 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Borderlands 4. This GPU is not enough for Borderlands 4 at this resolution. We recommend a more powerful GPU.
At 1440p it gets 11 FPS and at 4K 5 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
