Crimson Desert benchmark on RTX 3080 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Crimson Desert FPS with a RTX 3080 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 67FPS min 58Good | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 40FPS min 35Acceptable |
| High | 87FPS min 76Good | 75FPS min 65Good | 51FPS min 45Acceptable |
| Medium | 114FPS min 99Good | 98FPS min 85Good | 67FPS min 59Good |
| Low | 147FPS min 128Excellent | 127FPS min 110Excellent | 87FPS min 77Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | balanced | GPU 37% |
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 RTX 3080 Ti. There is 15% 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.
DLSS 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 RTX 3080 Ti with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 67 | 84 | 97 |
| 1440p | 58 | 78 | 96 |
| 4K | 40 | 58 | 74 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3080 Ti 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 DLSS 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.
The RTX 3080 Ti and that processor are well matched in Crimson Desert: 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 RTX 3080 Ti Enough for Crimson Desert?
The RTX 3080 Ti delivers 67 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Crimson Desert. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 58 FPS and at 4K 40 FPS at Ultra quality.
