NBA 2K26 benchmark on RX 7900 XTX: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
NBA 2K26 FPS with a RX 7900 XTX and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 230FPS min 124Excellent | 198FPS min 114Excellent | 137FPS min 93Excellent |
| High | 298FPS min 161Excellent | 257FPS min 148Excellent | 178FPS min 121Excellent |
| Medium | 390FPS min 210Excellent | 336FPS min 193Excellent | 233FPS min 158Excellent |
| Low | 500FPS min 270Excellent | 435FPS min 250Excellent | 302FPS min 205Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 57% | CPU 51% | CPU 33% |
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 7900 XTX. There is 8% 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 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 RX 7900 XTX with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 230 | 288 | 334 | 490 |
| 1440p | 198 | 267 | 327 | 454 |
| 4K | 137 | 199 | 253 | 338 |
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 7900 XTX 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 7900 XTX has headroom to spare in NBA 2K26: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RX 7900 XTX Enough for NBA 2K26?
The RX 7900 XTX delivers 230 FPS at 1080p Ultra in NBA 2K26. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 198 FPS and at 4K 137 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
