Can the AMD RX 5700 XT run Cities: Skylines II? (2026)

✅ Yes

~82 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The AMD RX 5700 XT is a mainstream 1080p card with 8GB of VRAM, and Cities: Skylines II is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU it averages about 82 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 82 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	82	82
1440p	49	67
4K	28	63

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

At 1080p expect around 82 FPS, at 1440p about 67 FPS, and at 4K roughly 63 FPS with optimized settings. Cities: Skylines II doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
