The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt benchmark on RTX 5070: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt FPS with a RTX 5070 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 159FPS min 96Excellent | 131FPS min 86Excellent | 77FPS min 67Good |
| High | 207FPS min 125Excellent | 170FPS min 111Excellent | 100FPS min 87Good |
| Medium | 270FPS min 163Excellent | 222FPS min 145Excellent | 131FPS min 114Excellent |
| Low | 350FPS min 211Excellent | 287FPS min 188Excellent | 169FPS min 147Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 46% | CPU 37% | balanced |
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 RTX 5070. There is 10% 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.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt 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 RTX 5070 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 159 | 199 | 231 | 338 |
| 1440p | 131 | 177 | 216 | 301 |
| 4K | 77 | 112 | 142 | 190 |
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 RTX 5070 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 DLSS 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 RTX 5070 has headroom to spare in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RTX 5070 Enough for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt?
The RTX 5070 delivers 159 FPS at 1080p Ultra in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 131 FPS and at 4K 77 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
