Borderlands 4 benchmark on RX 9060 XT 16GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Borderlands 4 FPS with a RX 9060 XT 16GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 60FPS min 52Good | 43FPS min 38Acceptable | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| High | 78FPS min 68Good | 56FPS min 49Acceptable | 28FPS min 25Poor |
| Medium | 102FPS min 89Good | 73FPS min 64Good | 37FPS min 33Acceptable |
| Low | 132FPS min 115Excellent | 95FPS min 84Good | 48FPS min 43Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 31% | GPU 65% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 9060 XT 16GB. There is 9% 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.
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 9060 XT 16GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 60 | 75 | 87 | 128 |
| 1440p | 43 | 58 | 71 | 99 |
| 4K | 22 | 32 | 41 | 54 |
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 RX 9060 XT 16GB 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.
The RX 9060 XT 16GB and that processor are well matched in Borderlands 4: neither clearly holds the other back, so the table figures are a fair reflection of the pair. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RX 9060 XT 16GB Enough for Borderlands 4?
The RX 9060 XT 16GB delivers 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Borderlands 4. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 43 FPS and at 4K 22 FPS at Ultra quality.
