Sid Meier's Civilization VI benchmark on GTX 1650 Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Sid Meier's Civilization VI FPS with a GTX 1650 Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 64FPS min 56Good | 38FPS min 34Acceptable | 13FPS min 12Unplayable |
| High | 83FPS min 72Good | 49FPS min 43Acceptable | 17FPS min 15Poor |
| Medium | 109FPS min 95Good | 64FPS min 56Good | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| Low | 141FPS min 123Excellent | 83FPS min 73Good | 29FPS min 26Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 40% | GPU 79% |
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 i5-12400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1650 Laptop. There is 38% 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 Sid Meier's Civilization VI 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 Laptop with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 64 | 80 | 93 |
| 1440p | 38 | 51 | 63 |
| 4K | 13 | 19 | 24 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1650 Laptop 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.
The GTX 1650 Laptop and that processor are well matched in Sid Meier's Civilization VI: 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 GTX 1650 Laptop Enough for Sid Meier's Civilization VI?
The GTX 1650 Laptop delivers 64 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Sid Meier's Civilization VI. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 38 FPS and at 4K 13 FPS at Ultra quality.
