Nioh 3 benchmark on GTX 980 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Nioh 3 FPS with a GTX 980 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 29FPS min 26Poor | 21FPS min 19Poor | 9FPS min 8Unplayable |
| High | 38FPS min 34Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor | 12FPS min 11Unplayable |
| Medium | 49FPS min 43Acceptable | 35FPS min 31Acceptable | 16FPS min 14Poor |
| Low | 64FPS min 57Good | 46FPS min 41Acceptable | 20FPS min 18Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 53% | GPU 67% | GPU 85% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
It makes no difference which processor you have: with the GTX 980 Ti in Nioh 3 the graphics card is always the brake. Swapping CPU would not gain you a single frame — put the money into the card.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Nioh 3 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 GTX 980 Ti with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 29 | 36 | 42 |
| 1440p | 21 | 28 | 35 |
| 4K | 9 | 13 | 17 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 980 Ti 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 GTX 980 Ti is what caps the frame rate in Nioh 3. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 980 Ti Enough for Nioh 3?
The GTX 980 Ti delivers 29 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Nioh 3. This GPU is not enough for Nioh 3 at this resolution. We recommend a more powerful GPU.
At 1440p it gets 21 FPS and at 4K 9 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
