Factorio benchmark on RX 580 4GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Factorio FPS with a RX 580 4GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 138FPS min 74Excellent | 79FPS min 55Good | 30FPS min 27Acceptable |
| High | 180FPS min 97Excellent | 102FPS min 71Good | 39FPS min 35Acceptable |
| Medium | 235FPS min 127Excellent | 134FPS min 93Excellent | 50FPS min 44Acceptable |
| Low | 305FPS min 165Excellent | 173FPS min 120Excellent | 65FPS min 58Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 57% | CPU 30% | GPU 53% |
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 i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 580 4GB. There is 29% 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 Factorio 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 580 4GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 138 | 173 | 200 |
| 1440p | 79 | 107 | 130 |
| 4K | 30 | 44 | 56 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 580 4GB 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.
With that CPU, the RX 580 4GB has headroom to spare in Factorio: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RX 580 4GB Enough for Factorio?
The RX 580 4GB delivers 138 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Factorio. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 79 FPS and at 4K 30 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
