Total War: PHARAOH benchmark on RX 6800: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Total War: PHARAOH FPS with a RX 6800 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 111FPS min 72Good | 88FPS min 64Good | 48FPS min 42Acceptable |
| High | 145FPS min 94Excellent | 115FPS min 83Good | 62FPS min 54Good |
| Medium | 189FPS min 123Excellent | 150FPS min 109Excellent | 81FPS min 71Good |
| Low | 245FPS min 159Excellent | 194FPS min 141Excellent | 105FPS min 92Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 38% | CPU 25% | GPU 20% |
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 6800. There is 22% 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 6800 with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 111 | 139 | 161 |
| 1440p | 88 | 119 | 145 |
| 4K | 48 | 70 | 89 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6800 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 6800 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 6800 Enough for Total War: PHARAOH?
The RX 6800 delivers 111 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 88 FPS and at 4K 48 FPS at Ultra quality.
