On a AMD RX 9070 XT (paired with a balanced Intel Core i9-12900F-class CPU), Far Cry 6 runs at roughly 71 FPS at 4K with our optimized settings — up from about 72FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The AMD RX 9070 XT is a high-end graphics card with 16GB of VRAM, and Far Cry 6 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i9-12900F, it runs well at 4K — about 71 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.
Across resolutions you can expect around 210 FPS at 1080p and 126 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 71 FPS at 4K. Far Cry 6 supports ray tracing and the AMD RX 9070 XT can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Far Cry 6, so textures can stay maxed. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 213 | 210 |
| 1440p | 128 | 126 |
| 4K | 72 | 71 |
