Borderlands 4 benchmark on RX 5600 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Borderlands 4 FPS with a RX 5600 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 31FPS min 27Acceptable | 22FPS min 20Poor | 9FPS min 8Unplayable |
| High | 40FPS min 35Acceptable | 28FPS min 25Poor | 11FPS min 10Unplayable |
| Medium | 53FPS min 47Acceptable | 37FPS min 33Acceptable | 15FPS min 13Poor |
| Low | 68FPS min 60Good | 48FPS min 43Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 51% | GPU 65% | GPU 86% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
Almost any modern CPU performs the same here: there is only 0% between the slowest and the fastest in the table. If you were wondering whether to upgrade your processor for Borderlands 4, it is not worth it. 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.
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 RX 5600 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 31 | 39 | 45 |
| 1440p | 22 | 30 | 36 |
| 4K | 9 | 13 | 17 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 5600 XT 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 RX 5600 XT is what caps the frame rate in Borderlands 4. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 5600 XT Enough for Borderlands 4?
The RX 5600 XT delivers 31 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Borderlands 4. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 22 FPS and at 4K 9 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
