Cities: Skylines II benchmark on Arc B580: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Cities: Skylines II FPS with a Arc B580 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 44FPS min 39Acceptable | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| High | 76FPS min 66Good | 57FPS min 50Acceptable | 29FPS min 26Poor |
| Medium | 99FPS min 86Good | 75FPS min 66Good | 38FPS min 34Acceptable |
| Low | 128FPS min 111Excellent | 97FPS min 85Good | 49FPS min 44Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 30% | 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 Intel Core i5-10400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the Arc B580. There is 23% 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.
XeSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Cities: Skylines II 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 Arc B580 with XeSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | XeSS Quality | XeSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 58 | 73 | 84 | 124 |
| 1440p | 44 | 59 | 73 | 100 |
| 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 Arc B580 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 XeSS 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 Arc B580 and that processor are well matched in Cities: Skylines II: 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 Arc B580 Enough for Cities: Skylines II?
The Arc B580 delivers 58 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Cities: Skylines II. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 44 FPS and at 4K 22 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
