S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl benchmark on RX 6800 XT: 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 RX 6800 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 69FPS min 55Good | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 37FPS min 33Acceptable |
| High | 90FPS min 72Good | 76FPS min 66Good | 48FPS min 42Acceptable |
| Medium | 118FPS min 94Good | 99FPS min 86Good | 62FPS min 55Good |
| Low | 152FPS min 122Excellent | 128FPS min 111Excellent | 81FPS min 71Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 12% | balanced | GPU 41% |
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 i5-13400 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 6800 XT. There is 20% 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 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 RX 6800 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 69 | 86 | 100 |
| 1440p | 58 | 78 | 96 |
| 4K | 37 | 54 | 68 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6800 XT 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.
With that CPU, the RX 6800 XT 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 RX 6800 XT Enough for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl?
The RX 6800 XT delivers 69 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 58 FPS and at 4K 37 FPS at Ultra quality.
