Crimson Desert benchmark on GTX 1660 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Crimson Desert FPS with a GTX 1660 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 30FPS min 27Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor | 8FPS min 7Unplayable |
| High | 39FPS min 35Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor | 10FPS min 9Unplayable |
| Medium | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 35FPS min 31Acceptable | 13FPS min 12Unplayable |
| Low | 66FPS min 58Good | 45FPS min 40Acceptable | 17FPS min 15Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 52% | GPU 67% | GPU 88% |
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 Ti with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 30 | 38 | 44 |
| 1440p | 21 | 28 | 35 |
| 4K | 8 | 12 | 15 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1660 Ti 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 Ti is what caps the frame rate in Crimson Desert. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1660 Ti Enough for Crimson Desert?
The GTX 1660 Ti delivers 30 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
