It makes no difference which processor you have: with the GTX 980 in Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV the graphics card is always the brake. Swapping CPU would not gain you a single frame — put the money into the card.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV 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 980 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 26 | 33 | 38 |
| 1440p | 17 | 23 | 28 |
| 4K | 7 | 10 | 13 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 980 has no dedicated hardware for it, so it is an option best left disabled.
