Hollow Knight: Silksong benchmark on RX 7700S: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Hollow Knight: Silksong FPS with a RX 7700S and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 220FPS min 117Excellent | 128FPS min 82Excellent | 42FPS min 37Acceptable |
| High | 286FPS min 153Excellent | 166FPS min 107Excellent | 55FPS min 48Acceptable |
| Medium | 373FPS min 199Excellent | 217FPS min 140Excellent | 72FPS min 63Good |
| Low | 483FPS min 258Excellent | 281FPS min 181Excellent | 93FPS min 82Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 58% | CPU 39% | GPU 32% |
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 7700S. There is 9% 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 7700S with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 220 | 275 | 319 | 468 |
| 1440p | 128 | 173 | 211 | 294 |
| 4K | 42 | 61 | 78 | 104 |
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 7700S 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 7700S 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 7700S Enough for Hollow Knight: Silksong?
The RX 7700S delivers 220 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Hollow Knight: Silksong. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 128 FPS and at 4K 42 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
