Civilization VII benchmark on RX 7900M: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Civilization VII FPS with a RX 7900M and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 124FPS min 75Excellent | 97FPS min 66Good | 50FPS min 44Acceptable |
| High | 162FPS min 98Excellent | 126FPS min 86Excellent | 65FPS min 57Good |
| Medium | 212FPS min 128Excellent | 164FPS min 111Excellent | 85FPS min 74Good |
| Low | 274FPS min 165Excellent | 213FPS min 145Excellent | 110FPS min 96Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 46% | CPU 33% | GPU 16% |
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 i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 7900M. There is 25% 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 Civilization VII 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 7900M with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 124 | 155 | 180 | 264 |
| 1440p | 97 | 131 | 160 | 223 |
| 4K | 50 | 73 | 93 | 124 |
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 7900M 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.
With that CPU, the RX 7900M has headroom to spare in Civilization VII: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RX 7900M Enough for Civilization VII?
The RX 7900M delivers 124 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Civilization VII. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 97 FPS and at 4K 50 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
