Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The resolution scaling data reveals a classic pattern of GPU-bound performance at higher resolutions. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at High settings, the average FPS drops from 153 to 101, a reduction of approximately 34 percent. The further step to 3840x2160 sees the average FPS fall to 56, representing a 63 percent decrease from the 1080p figure. This substantial drop indicates that the GPU becomes increasingly stressed as pixel count rises.

At Low settings, the scaling is even more pronounced in absolute terms. The system delivers 242 FPS at 1080p, which drops to 159 FPS at 1440p and then to 88 FPS at 4K. The 154 FPS difference between 1080p and 4K at Low settings suggests that the RX 6800 XT's rendering capabilities are being pushed to their limits. The GPU's specifications — 4608 shading units, 288 texture mapping units, and 128 raster operation pipelines — combined with its boost clock of 2250 MHz and 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus providing 512.0 GB/s of bandwidth, are sufficient for smooth 1080p and 1440p gameplay but begin to struggle at 4K.

The Medium settings row provides additional insight with min and max FPS data. At 1080p Medium, the system averages 191 FPS with a minimum of 162 and a maximum of 220. This narrow range suggests consistent frame delivery. At 1440p Medium, the average drops to 126 FPS with a min of 107 and max of 145. The 4K Medium results show an average of 70 FPS with a minimum of 59 and maximum of 80, indicating that even at Medium settings, the system can experience frame rates that dip below 60 FPS at 4K. The overall pattern strongly suggests that the RX 6800 XT is the primary limiting factor at higher resolutions, while the CPU's capabilities are sufficient to drive high frame rates at 1080p.
