Fortnite benchmark on GTX 950: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a GTX 950 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 23FPS min 20Poor | 12FPS min 11Unplayable | 5FPS min 4Unplayable |
| High | 30FPS min 27Acceptable | 16FPS min 14Poor | 5FPS min 4Unplayable |
| Medium | 40FPS min 36Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor | 5FPS min 4Unplayable |
| Low | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor | 7FPS min 6Unplayable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 63% | GPU 80% | GPU 95% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
It makes no difference which processor you have: with the GTX 950 in Fortnite the graphics card is always the brake. Swapping CPU would not gain you a single frame — put the money into the card.
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 950 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 23 | 29 | 33 |
| 1440p | 12 | 16 | 20 |
| 4K | 5 | 7 | 9 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 950 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 950 is what caps the frame rate in Fortnite. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 950 Enough for Fortnite?
The GTX 950 delivers 23 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. This GPU is not enough for Fortnite at this resolution. We recommend a more powerful GPU.
At 1440p it gets 12 FPS and at 4K 5 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
