Garry's Mod benchmark on RTX 4080 Super: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Garry's Mod FPS with a RTX 4080 Super and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 111FPS min 72Good | 96FPS min 67Good | 68FPS min 59Good |
| High | 144FPS min 94Excellent | 125FPS min 88Excellent | 88FPS min 77Good |
| Medium | 189FPS min 123Excellent | 163FPS min 114Excellent | 115FPS min 100Good |
| Low | 244FPS min 159Excellent | 211FPS min 148Excellent | 149FPS min 130Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 38% | CPU 29% | balanced |
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 4080 Super. There is 21% 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 Garry's Mod 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 4080 Super with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 111 | 139 | 161 | 236 |
| 1440p | 96 | 130 | 158 | 221 |
| 4K | 68 | 99 | 126 | 168 |
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 RTX 4080 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 4080 Super has headroom to spare in Garry's Mod: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RTX 4080 Super Enough for Garry's Mod?
The RTX 4080 Super delivers 111 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Garry's Mod. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 96 FPS and at 4K 68 FPS at Ultra quality.
