Grand Theft Auto VI benchmark on RX 9070 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Grand Theft Auto VI FPS with a RX 9070 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 68FPS min 55Good | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 38FPS min 34Acceptable |
| High | 88FPS min 71Good | 75FPS min 65Good | 50FPS min 44Acceptable |
| Medium | 116FPS min 94Good | 99FPS min 86Good | 65FPS min 57Good |
| Low | 150FPS min 122Excellent | 128FPS min 111Excellent | 84FPS min 74Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 10% | balanced | GPU 39% |
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 i5-13400 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 9070 XT. There is 15% 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 Grand Theft Auto VI 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 9070 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 68 | 85 | 99 | 145 |
| 1440p | 58 | 78 | 96 | 133 |
| 4K | 38 | 55 | 70 | 94 |
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 9070 XT 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 9070 XT has headroom to spare in Grand Theft Auto VI: 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 9070 XT Enough for Grand Theft Auto VI?
The RX 9070 XT delivers 68 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Grand Theft Auto VI. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 58 FPS and at 4K 38 FPS at Ultra quality.
