The Intel Arc B580 is a mainstream 1080p card with 12GB of VRAM, and X-Plane 12 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU it averages about 93 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 94 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 94 | 93 |
| 1440p | 56 | 75 |
| 4K | 32 | 61 |
At 1080p expect around 93 FPS, at 1440p about 75 FPS, and at 4K roughly 61 FPS with optimized settings. X-Plane 12 doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
