S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl benchmark on RTX 4080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl FPS with a RTX 4080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 99FPS min 69Good | 86FPS min 65Good | 60FPS min 52Good |
| High | 129FPS min 90Excellent | 111FPS min 84Good | 78FPS min 68Good |
| Medium | 169FPS min 118Excellent | 146FPS min 111Excellent | 102FPS min 89Good |
| Low | 218FPS min 152Excellent | 188FPS min 143Excellent | 131FPS min 114Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 30% | CPU 19% | GPU 10% |
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 7 9800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 4080. 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.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl 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 4080 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 99 | 124 | 144 | 211 |
| 1440p | 86 | 116 | 142 | 197 |
| 4K | 60 | 87 | 111 | 148 |
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 RTX 4080 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 4080 has headroom to spare in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl: 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 RTX 4080 Enough for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl?
The RTX 4080 delivers 99 FPS at 1080p Ultra in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 86 FPS and at 4K 60 FPS at Ultra quality.
