Minecraft benchmark on RX 560: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Minecraft FPS with a RX 560 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 53FPS min 46Acceptable | 30FPS min 27Acceptable | 10FPS min 9Unplayable |
| High | 69FPS min 60Good | 39FPS min 35Acceptable | 13FPS min 12Unplayable |
| Medium | 91FPS min 80Good | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 17FPS min 15Poor |
| Low | 117FPS min 102Good | 66FPS min 58Good | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 15% | GPU 52% | GPU 84% |
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 i5-10400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 560. There is 29% 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 Minecraft 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 560 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 53 | 66 | 77 |
| 1440p | 30 | 41 | 50 |
| 4K | 10 | 15 | 19 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 560 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the RX 560 is what caps the frame rate in Minecraft. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 560 Enough for Minecraft?
The RX 560 delivers 53 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Minecraft. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 30 FPS and at 4K 10 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
