Total War: PHARAOH benchmark on RX 6650 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Total War: PHARAOH FPS with a RX 6650 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 75FPS min 57Good | 55FPS min 48Acceptable | 27FPS min 24Poor |
| High | 97FPS min 74Good | 72FPS min 63Good | 35FPS min 31Acceptable |
| Medium | 127FPS min 97Excellent | 94FPS min 82Good | 46FPS min 41Acceptable |
| Low | 164FPS min 126Excellent | 122FPS min 107Excellent | 60FPS min 53Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 18% | GPU 11% | GPU 57% |
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 7600X downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RX 6650 XT. There is 36% 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 Total War: PHARAOH 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 6650 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 75 | 94 | 109 |
| 1440p | 55 | 74 | 91 |
| 4K | 27 | 39 | 50 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6650 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 6650 XT has headroom to spare in Total War: PHARAOH: 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 6650 XT Enough for Total War: PHARAOH?
The RX 6650 XT delivers 75 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Total War: PHARAOH. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 55 FPS and at 4K 27 FPS at Ultra quality.
