RX Vega 64 Specifications
These are the basic specs. The full RX Vega 64 page adds the rest of the technical data and its FPS game by game, not just in Rust.

Rust benchmark on RX Vega 64: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Rust FPS with a RX Vega 64 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 42FPS min 37Acceptable | 28FPS min 25Poor | 11FPS min 10Unplayable |
| High | 54FPS min 48Acceptable | 36FPS min 32Acceptable | 15FPS min 13Poor |
| Medium | 71FPS min 62Good | 47FPS min 42Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor |
| Low | 91FPS min 80Good | 61FPS min 54Good | 25FPS min 22Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 34% | GPU 56% | GPU 82% |
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 2600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX Vega 64. There is 11% 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 Rust 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 Vega 64 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 42 | 53 | 61 |
| 1440p | 28 | 38 | 46 |
| 4K | 11 | 16 | 20 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX Vega 64 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 RX Vega 64 is what caps the frame rate in Rust. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX Vega 64 Enough for Rust?
The RX Vega 64 delivers 42 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Rust. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 28 FPS and at 4K 11 FPS at Ultra quality.

RX Vega 64 or RTX 3050 Laptop for Rust?
In Rust at 1080p Ultra both land on the same figure: 42 FPS. Price and power draw are what separate them.
