Fortnite benchmark on RTX 2060: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a RTX 2060 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 96FPS min 67Good | 65FPS min 57Good | 30FPS min 27Acceptable |
| High | 125FPS min 88Excellent | 84FPS min 73Good | 39FPS min 35Acceptable |
| Medium | 163FPS min 114Excellent | 110FPS min 96Good | 51FPS min 45Acceptable |
| Low | 211FPS min 148Excellent | 143FPS min 124Excellent | 66FPS min 58Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 29% | balanced | GPU 52% |
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 7 9800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 2060. There is 20% 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.
DLSS 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 RTX 2060 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 96 | 120 | 139 |
| 1440p | 65 | 88 | 107 |
| 4K | 30 | 44 | 56 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 2060 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 DLSS 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 RTX 2060 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 RTX 2060 Enough for Fortnite?
The RTX 2060 delivers 96 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 65 FPS and at 4K 30 FPS at Ultra quality.
