💡 Cities: Skylines II: Big cities are limited by your CPU, not your GPU - upscaling won’t fix that.

At 1080p expect around 63 FPS, at 1440p about 63 FPS, and at 4K roughly 60 FPS with optimized settings. Cities: Skylines II doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
