Shadow of the Tomb Raider benchmark on GTX 1080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider FPS with a GTX 1080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 76FPS min 59Good | 56FPS min 49Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor |
| High | 99FPS min 77Good | 73FPS min 64Good | 35FPS min 31Acceptable |
| Medium | 129FPS min 100Excellent | 96FPS min 84Good | 46FPS min 41Acceptable |
| Low | 167FPS min 130Excellent | 124FPS min 108Excellent | 59FPS min 52Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 16% | balanced | GPU 57% |
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 7600X downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 1080. There is 17% 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 Shadow of the Tomb Raider 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 1080 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 76 | 95 | 110 |
| 1440p | 56 | 76 | 92 |
| 4K | 27 | 39 | 50 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1080 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.
With that CPU, the GTX 1080 has headroom to spare in Shadow of the Tomb Raider: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the GTX 1080 Enough for Shadow of the Tomb Raider?
The GTX 1080 delivers 76 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 56 FPS and at 4K 27 FPS at Ultra quality.
