Starfield benchmark on RX 5700: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Starfield FPS with a RX 5700 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 40FPS min 35Acceptable | 30FPS min 27Acceptable | 14FPS min 13Unplayable |
| High | 52FPS min 46Acceptable | 39FPS min 35Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| Medium | 68FPS min 60Good | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 23FPS min 21Poor |
| Low | 88FPS min 78Good | 66FPS min 58Good | 30FPS min 27Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 36% | GPU 52% | GPU 78% |
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 5700. There is 5% 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 Starfield 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 5700 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 40 | 50 | 58 |
| 1440p | 30 | 41 | 50 |
| 4K | 14 | 20 | 26 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 5700 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 5700 is what caps the frame rate in Starfield. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 5700 Enough for Starfield?
The RX 5700 delivers 40 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Starfield. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 30 FPS and at 4K 14 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
