Control benchmark on GTX 1080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Control FPS with a GTX 1080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 60FPS min 52Good | 45FPS min 40Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor |
| High | 78FPS min 68Good | 59FPS min 52Acceptable | 28FPS min 25Poor |
| Medium | 102FPS min 89Good | 77FPS min 68Good | 37FPS min 33Acceptable |
| Low | 132FPS min 115Excellent | 100FPS min 88Good | 47FPS min 42Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 27% | GPU 66% |
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 GTX 1080. There is 13% 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 Control 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 1080 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 60 | 75 | 87 |
| 1440p | 45 | 61 | 74 |
| 4K | 21 | 30 | 39 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1080 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 1080 and that processor are well matched in Control: 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 1080 Enough for Control?
The GTX 1080 delivers 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Control. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 45 FPS and at 4K 21 FPS at Ultra quality.
