Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege benchmark on RX 6500M: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege FPS with a RX 6500M and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 48FPS min 42Acceptable | 26FPS min 23Poor | 9FPS min 8Unplayable |
| High | 62FPS min 54Good | 33FPS min 29Acceptable | 12FPS min 11Unplayable |
| Medium | 81FPS min 71Good | 44FPS min 39Acceptable | 15FPS min 13Poor |
| Low | 105FPS min 92Good | 56FPS min 50Acceptable | 20FPS min 18Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 24% | GPU 59% | GPU 86% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 6500M. There is 14% 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 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege 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 6500M with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 48 | 60 | 70 |
| 1440p | 26 | 35 | 43 |
| 4K | 9 | 13 | 17 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6500M 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.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the RX 6500M is what caps the frame rate in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 6500M Enough for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege?
The RX 6500M delivers 48 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 26 FPS and at 4K 9 FPS at Ultra quality.
