Minecraft benchmark on RX 580 8GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Minecraft FPS with a RX 580 8GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 105FPS min 66Good | 64FPS min 56Good | 26FPS min 23Poor |
| High | 136FPS min 86Excellent | 83FPS min 72Good | 34FPS min 30Acceptable |
| Medium | 178FPS min 113Excellent | 108FPS min 94Good | 45FPS min 40Acceptable |
| Low | 230FPS min 145Excellent | 140FPS min 122Excellent | 58FPS min 51Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 41% | balanced | GPU 58% |
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 580 8GB. There is 33% 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 580 8GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 105 | 131 | 152 |
| 1440p | 64 | 86 | 106 |
| 4K | 26 | 38 | 48 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 580 8GB 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 8GB has headroom to spare in Minecraft: 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 8GB Enough for Minecraft?
The RX 580 8GB delivers 105 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Minecraft. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 64 FPS and at 4K 26 FPS at Ultra quality.
