Dawntrail: a faster GPU does not turn every raid into a benchmark
GamersNexus, April 2025 · 1440p · Maximum. Ryzen 7 9800X3D at 5.4 GHz, DDR5-6000, four passes. Read from the original chart.
| GPU | Average FPS | 1% low FPS |
|---|---|---|
| RTX 5060 Ti 16GB | 103.8 | 86.5 |
| RTX 5070 FE | 152.8 | 113.7 |
The 5070 gains about 47% in average FPS here, but about 31% in the 1% low. Budget for the result you need: this chart supports more GPU headroom, not a locked 144 FPS in a crowded raid. If your current card already meets your solo-play target, first check where the slowdown occurs.
Historical external evidence, not a GPUStores test or a forecast for your PC. Driver and game versions are not specified in this chart; a 1% low is not a guaranteed minimum.
