Fortnite benchmark on RX 9060 XT 8GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Fortnite FPS with a RX 9060 XT 8GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 224FPS min 121Excellent | 134FPS min 86Excellent | 50FPS min 44Acceptable |
| High | 291FPS min 157Excellent | 174FPS min 112Excellent | 65FPS min 57Good |
| Medium | 380FPS min 205Excellent | 227FPS min 146Excellent | 85FPS min 74Good |
| Low | 492FPS min 265Excellent | 294FPS min 189Excellent | 110FPS min 96Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 57% | CPU 39% | GPU 19% |
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 RX 9060 XT 8GB. There is 8% 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 9060 XT 8GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 224 | 280 | 325 | 476 |
| 1440p | 134 | 181 | 221 | 308 |
| 4K | 50 | 73 | 93 | 124 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 9060 XT 8GB 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 FSR 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 RX 9060 XT 8GB 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 9060 XT 8GB Enough for Fortnite?
The RX 9060 XT 8GB delivers 224 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Fortnite. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 134 FPS and at 4K 50 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
