Warhammer 40,000: Darktide benchmark on RX 6900 XT: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Warhammer 40,000: Darktide FPS with a RX 6900 XT and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 118FPS min 78Good | 96FPS min 70Good | 53FPS min 46Acceptable |
| High | 153FPS min 101Excellent | 125FPS min 91Excellent | 68FPS min 60Good |
| Medium | 201FPS min 133Excellent | 164FPS min 119Excellent | 89FPS min 78Good |
| Low | 260FPS min 172Excellent | 212FPS min 154Excellent | 116FPS min 102Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 36% | CPU 25% | GPU 17% |
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 6900 XT. There is 14% 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 Warhammer 40,000: Darktide 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 6900 XT with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 118 | 148 | 171 |
| 1440p | 96 | 130 | 158 |
| 4K | 53 | 77 | 98 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RX 6900 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 6900 XT has headroom to spare in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide: 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 6900 XT Enough for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide?
The RX 6900 XT delivers 118 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 96 FPS and at 4K 53 FPS at Ultra quality.
