Crimson Desert benchmark on GTX 1660 Super: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Crimson Desert FPS with a GTX 1660 Super and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 31FPS min 27Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor | 8FPS min 7Unplayable |
| High | 40FPS min 35Acceptable | 28FPS min 25Poor | 11FPS min 10Unplayable |
| Medium | 53FPS min 47Acceptable | 37FPS min 33Acceptable | 14FPS min 13Unplayable |
| Low | 68FPS min 60Good | 47FPS min 42Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 50% | GPU 66% | GPU 87% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
Almost any modern CPU performs the same here: there is only 0% between the slowest and the fastest in the table. If you were wondering whether to upgrade your processor for Crimson Desert, it is not worth it. 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 Crimson Desert 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 1660 Super with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 31 | 39 | 45 |
| 1440p | 21 | 28 | 35 |
| 4K | 8 | 12 | 15 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1660 Super 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the GTX 1660 Super is what caps the frame rate in Crimson Desert. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1660 Super Enough for Crimson Desert?
The GTX 1660 Super delivers 31 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Crimson Desert. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 21 FPS and at 4K 8 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
