Subnautica 2 benchmark on RX 5700 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Subnautica 2 FPS with a RX 5700 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 38FPS min 34Acceptable | 18FPS min 16Poor |
| High | 66FPS min 58Good | 50FPS min 44Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor |
| Medium | 87FPS min 76Good | 65FPS min 57Good | 31FPS min 28Acceptable |
| Low | 112FPS min 98Good | 85FPS min 75Good | 40FPS min 36Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 19% | GPU 39% | GPU 71% |
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 3600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 5700 XT. There is 13% 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 Subnautica 2 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 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 51 | 64 | 74 |
| 1440p | 38 | 51 | 63 |
| 4K | 18 | 26 | 33 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 5700 XT 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 XT is what caps the frame rate in Subnautica 2. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RX 5700 XT Enough for Subnautica 2?
The RX 5700 XT delivers 51 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Subnautica 2. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 38 FPS and at 4K 18 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
