The Forest benchmark on RX 5700 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
The Forest FPS with a RX 5700 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 140FPS min 86Excellent | 95FPS min 69Good | 40FPS min 35Acceptable |
| High | 182FPS min 112Excellent | 124FPS min 90Excellent | 51FPS min 45Acceptable |
| Medium | 238FPS min 146Excellent | 162FPS min 117Excellent | 67FPS min 59Good |
| Low | 308FPS min 189Excellent | 209FPS min 152Excellent | 87FPS min 77Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 44% | CPU 25% | GPU 37% |
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 i9-14900K 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 The Forest 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 | 140 | 175 | 203 |
| 1440p | 95 | 128 | 157 |
| 4K | 40 | 58 | 74 |
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.
With that CPU, the RX 5700 XT has headroom to spare in The Forest: 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 5700 XT Enough for The Forest?
The RX 5700 XT delivers 140 FPS at 1080p Ultra in The Forest. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 95 FPS and at 4K 40 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
