Far Cry 6 benchmark on GTX 1660: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Far Cry 6 FPS with a GTX 1660 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 48FPS min 42Acceptable | 32FPS min 28Acceptable | 12FPS min 11Unplayable |
| High | 63FPS min 55Good | 42FPS min 37Acceptable | 16FPS min 14Poor |
| Medium | 82FPS min 72Good | 55FPS min 49Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor |
| Low | 106FPS min 93Good | 71FPS min 63Good | 27FPS min 24Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 23% | GPU 49% | GPU 80% |
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 1660. There is 9% 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 Far Cry 6 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 1660 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 48 | 60 | 70 |
| 1440p | 32 | 43 | 53 |
| 4K | 12 | 17 | 22 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1660 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 1660 is what caps the frame rate in Far Cry 6. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1660 Enough for Far Cry 6?
The GTX 1660 delivers 48 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Far Cry 6. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 32 FPS and at 4K 12 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
