Crimson Desert benchmark on RX 6900 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Crimson Desert FPS with a RX 6900 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 66FPS min 57Good | 56FPS min 49Acceptable | 35FPS min 31Acceptable |
| High | 85FPS min 74Good | 73FPS min 64Good | 46FPS min 41Acceptable |
| Medium | 112FPS min 97Good | 95FPS min 83Good | 60FPS min 53Good |
| Low | 144FPS min 125Excellent | 123FPS min 107Excellent | 77FPS min 68Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 10% | GPU 44% |
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 RX 6900 XT. There is 16% 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 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 RX 6900 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 66 | 83 | 96 |
| 1440p | 56 | 76 | 92 |
| 4K | 35 | 51 | 65 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6900 XT 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.
The RX 6900 XT 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 RX 6900 XT Enough for Crimson Desert?
The RX 6900 XT delivers 66 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 56 FPS and at 4K 35 FPS at Ultra quality.
