Terraria was released in 2011. We list 5 published FPS results for it from YouTube and Reddit, covering 3 graphics cards. 3 of them hit a frame cap, CPU limit or VRAM limit in the source and count as lower bounds.

Frame rate cap: 60 FPS. Terraria limits the frame rate to 60 FPS by default, so no graphics card shows more than that. Our estimates stop at 60 FPS too, and measured results at the cap count as lower bounds.

Terraria FPS questions

Does Terraria have an FPS cap?
Yes. Terraria caps the frame rate at 60 FPS by default, so a faster graphics card will not show more than 60 FPS.
What graphics card do I need for 60 FPS in Terraria at 1080p?
By our estimate (±30%), the GTX 1650 is the least powerful of our 10 reference cards to reach 60 FPS at 1080p High, at about 60 FPS. No published benchmark of Terraria at that setting is in our data to confirm it.
Can a GTX 1650 run Terraria?
By our estimate it gets about 60 FPS at 1080p Low (smooth) and 60 FPS at 1080p High (smooth), each ±30%.
