Path of Exile benchmark on RX 9060 XT 16GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Path of Exile FPS with a RX 9060 XT 16GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 299FPS min 149Excellent | 183FPS min 106Excellent | 68FPS min 59Good |
| High | 389FPS min 194Excellent | 237FPS min 137Excellent | 88FPS min 77Good |
| Medium | 500FPS min 249Excellent | 310FPS min 180Excellent | 116FPS min 101Good |
| Low | 500FPS min 249Excellent | 402FPS min 233Excellent | 150FPS min 131Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 64% | CPU 50% | balanced |
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 9060 XT 16GB. There is 7% 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 Path of Exile 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 9060 XT 16GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 299 | 374 | 434 | 636 |
| 1440p | 183 | 247 | 302 | 420 |
| 4K | 68 | 99 | 126 | 168 |
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 9060 XT 16GB 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 9060 XT 16GB has headroom to spare in Path of Exile: 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 9060 XT 16GB Enough for Path of Exile?
The RX 9060 XT 16GB delivers 299 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Path of Exile. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 183 FPS and at 4K 68 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
