Fortnite benchmark on RTX 2080 Super: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a RTX 2080 Super and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 168FPS min 98Excellent | 125FPS min 83Excellent | 57FPS min 50Acceptable |
| High | 219FPS min 128Excellent | 162FPS min 107Excellent | 75FPS min 65Good |
| Medium | 286FPS min 168Excellent | 212FPS min 140Excellent | 98FPS min 86Good |
| Low | 371FPS min 217Excellent | 274FPS min 181Excellent | 126FPS min 110Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 49% | CPU 36% | GPU 11% |
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 RTX 2080 Super. There is 11% 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 2080 Super with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 168 | 210 | 244 |
| 1440p | 125 | 169 | 206 |
| 4K | 57 | 83 | 105 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 2080 Super 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 2080 Super 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 2080 Super Enough for Fortnite?
The RTX 2080 Super delivers 168 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 125 FPS and at 4K 57 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
