Fortnite benchmark on GTX 1080 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a GTX 1080 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 117FPS min 76Good | 84FPS min 63Good | 41FPS min 36Acceptable |
| High | 153FPS min 99Excellent | 110FPS min 83Good | 54FPS min 48Acceptable |
| Medium | 200FPS min 130Excellent | 144FPS min 109Excellent | 70FPS min 62Good |
| Low | 258FPS min 168Excellent | 186FPS min 140Excellent | 91FPS min 80Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 38% | CPU 20% | GPU 34% |
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 GTX 1080 Ti. There is 16% 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 Fortnite 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 Ti with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 117 | 146 | 170 |
| 1440p | 84 | 113 | 139 |
| 4K | 41 | 59 | 76 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1080 Ti 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 GTX 1080 Ti has headroom to spare in Fortnite: 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 GTX 1080 Ti Enough for Fortnite?
The GTX 1080 Ti delivers 117 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 84 FPS and at 4K 41 FPS at Ultra quality.
