Elden Ring benchmark on GTX 1080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Elden Ring FPS with a GTX 1080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 52FPS min 45Acceptable | 40FPS min 35Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor |
| High | 68FPS min 59Good | 52FPS min 46Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor |
| Medium | 89FPS min 78Good | 67FPS min 59Good | 32FPS min 29Acceptable |
| Low | 115FPS min 101Good | 87FPS min 77Good | 41FPS min 37Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 16% | GPU 37% | GPU 70% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1080. There is 13% 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 Elden Ring 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 1080 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 52 | 65 | 75 |
| 1440p | 40 | 54 | 66 |
| 4K | 19 | 28 | 35 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1080 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 1080 is what caps the frame rate in Elden Ring. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1080 Enough for Elden Ring?
The GTX 1080 delivers 52 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Elden Ring. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 40 FPS and at 4K 19 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
