Risk of Rain 2 benchmark on RTX 2080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Risk of Rain 2 FPS with a RTX 2080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 457FPS min 215Excellent | 341FPS min 174Excellent | 138FPS min 95Excellent |
| High | 500FPS min 235Excellent | 443FPS min 226Excellent | 179FPS min 124Excellent |
| Medium | 500FPS min 235Excellent | 500FPS min 255Excellent | 235FPS min 162Excellent |
| Low | 500FPS min 235Excellent | 500FPS min 255Excellent | 303FPS min 209Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 69% | CPU 62% | CPU 31% |
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 RTX 2080. There is 3% 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.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Risk of Rain 2 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 RTX 2080 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 457 | 571 | 663 |
| 1440p | 341 | 460 | 563 |
| 4K | 138 | 200 | 255 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 2080 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 DLSS 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 RTX 2080 has headroom to spare in Risk of Rain 2: 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 RTX 2080 Enough for Risk of Rain 2?
The RTX 2080 delivers 457 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Risk of Rain 2. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 341 FPS and at 4K 138 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
