Hollow Knight: Silksong benchmark on RX 580 4GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Hollow Knight: Silksong FPS with a RX 580 4GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 77FPS min 59Good | 48FPS min 42Acceptable | 16FPS min 14Poor |
| High | 100FPS min 76Good | 62FPS min 54Good | 21FPS min 19Poor |
| Medium | 131FPS min 100Excellent | 81FPS min 71Good | 27FPS min 24Poor |
| Low | 170FPS min 129Excellent | 105FPS min 92Good | 35FPS min 31Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 19% | GPU 24% | GPU 75% |
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 580 4GB. There is 31% 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 Hollow Knight: Silksong 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 580 4GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 77 | 96 | 112 |
| 1440p | 48 | 65 | 79 |
| 4K | 16 | 23 | 30 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 580 4GB 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 580 4GB has headroom to spare in Hollow Knight: Silksong: 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 580 4GB Enough for Hollow Knight: Silksong?
The RX 580 4GB delivers 77 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Hollow Knight: Silksong. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 48 FPS and at 4K 16 FPS at Ultra quality.
