|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 227 | 227 |
| 1440p | 169 | 167 |

At 1080p expect around 227 FPS, at 1440p about 167 FPS, and at 4K roughly 95 FPS with optimized settings. Its 16GB of VRAM is plenty for Sea of Thieves. Sea of Thieves doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
