Fortnite benchmark on RX 560: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a RX 560 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 26FPS min 23Poor | 14FPS min 13Unplayable | 5FPS min 4Unplayable |
| High | 33FPS min 29Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor | 6FPS min 5Unplayable |
| Medium | 44FPS min 39Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor | 8FPS min 7Unplayable |
| Low | 56FPS min 50Acceptable | 32FPS min 29Acceptable | 10FPS min 9Unplayable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 59% | GPU 77% | GPU 92% |
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 RX 560 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 RX 560 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 26 | 33 | 38 |
| 1440p | 14 | 19 | 23 |
| 4K | 5 | 7 | 9 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 560 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 RX 560 is what caps the frame rate in Fortnite. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 560 Enough for Fortnite?
The RX 560 delivers 26 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 14 FPS and at 4K 5 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
