NBA 2K26 benchmark on Arc A580: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
NBA 2K26 FPS with a Arc A580 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 41FPS min 36Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| High | 76FPS min 66Good | 53FPS min 47Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor |
| Medium | 99FPS min 86Good | 70FPS min 62Good | 31FPS min 28Acceptable |
| Low | 128FPS min 111Excellent | 90FPS min 79Good | 40FPS min 36Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 34% | GPU 71% |
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 Arc A580. There is 18% 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.
XeSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders NBA 2K26 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 Arc A580 with XeSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | XeSS Quality | XeSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 58 | 73 | 84 |
| 1440p | 41 | 55 | 68 |
| 4K | 18 | 26 | 33 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The Arc A580 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 XeSS 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.
The Arc A580 and that processor are well matched in NBA 2K26: neither clearly holds the other back, so the table figures are a fair reflection of the pair. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the Arc A580 Enough for NBA 2K26?
The Arc A580 delivers 58 FPS at 1080p Ultra in NBA 2K26. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 41 FPS and at 4K 18 FPS at Ultra quality.
