Fallout 4 benchmark on RX 9060 XT 16GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fallout 4 FPS with a RX 9060 XT 16GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 407FPS min 196Excellent | 244FPS min 134Excellent | 85FPS min 69Good |
| High | 500FPS min 241Excellent | 317FPS min 175Excellent | 111FPS min 90Good |
| Medium | 500FPS min 241Excellent | 415FPS min 229Excellent | 145FPS min 118Excellent |
| Low | 500FPS min 241Excellent | 500FPS min 275Excellent | 188FPS min 153Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 67% | CPU 55% | CPU 10% |
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 9060 XT 16GB. There is 4% 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 Fallout 4 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 9060 XT 16GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 407 | 509 | 590 | 865 |
| 1440p | 244 | 329 | 403 | 559 |
| 4K | 85 | 123 | 157 | 209 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 9060 XT 16GB 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.
With that CPU, the RX 9060 XT 16GB has headroom to spare in Fallout 4: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RX 9060 XT 16GB Enough for Fallout 4?
The RX 9060 XT 16GB delivers 407 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fallout 4. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 244 FPS and at 4K 85 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
