Team Fortress 2 benchmark on RX 7800 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Team Fortress 2 FPS with a RX 7800 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 84FPS min 62Good | 69FPS min 60Good | 41FPS min 36Acceptable |
| High | 109FPS min 81Good | 90FPS min 78Good | 54FPS min 48Acceptable |
| Medium | 143FPS min 106Excellent | 117FPS min 102Good | 70FPS min 62Good |
| Low | 185FPS min 137Excellent | 152FPS min 132Excellent | 91FPS min 80Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 22% | balanced | GPU 34% |
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 7800X3D downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 7800 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 Team Fortress 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 7800 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 84 | 105 | 122 | 179 |
| 1440p | 69 | 93 | 114 | 158 |
| 4K | 41 | 59 | 76 | 100 |
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 RX 7800 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 7800 XT has headroom to spare in Team Fortress 2: 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 7800 XT Enough for Team Fortress 2?
The RX 7800 XT delivers 84 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Team Fortress 2. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 69 FPS and at 4K 41 FPS at Ultra quality.
