Fortnite benchmark on RX 5600 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a RX 5600 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 81FPS min 61Good | 55FPS min 48Acceptable | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| High | 105FPS min 79Good | 72FPS min 63Good | 29FPS min 26Poor |
| Medium | 137FPS min 103Excellent | 94FPS min 82Good | 38FPS min 34Acceptable |
| Low | 178FPS min 133Excellent | 121FPS min 106Excellent | 49FPS min 44Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 21% | GPU 12% | GPU 65% |
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 7800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 5600 XT. There is 24% 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 RX 5600 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 81 | 101 | 117 |
| 1440p | 55 | 74 | 91 |
| 4K | 22 | 32 | 41 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 5600 XT 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 RX 5600 XT 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 RX 5600 XT Enough for Fortnite?
The RX 5600 XT delivers 81 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 55 FPS and at 4K 22 FPS at Ultra quality.
