Expected FPS in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4
Estimate ±30%Our model's figures from the requirements and each card's benchmark score, not measurements: native resolution, no upscaling, frame generation or ray tracing. A typical estimate lands within ±30% of the measured result. How the estimate works.
| GPU | 1080p Medium | 1080p High | 1440p High |
|---|---|---|---|
| GTX 1650 | ≈35 FPS 25–46 | ≈28 FPS 20–36 | ≈20 FPS 14–26 |
| GTX 1660 Super | ≈51 FPS 36–66 | ≈41 FPS 29–53 | ≈29 FPS 20–38 |
| RTX 2060 | ≈55 FPS 39–72 | ≈44 FPS 31–57 | ≈32 FPS 22–42 |
| RX 6600 | ≈58 FPS 41–75 | ≈47 FPS 33–61 | ≈34 FPS 24–44 |
| Arc B580 | ≈61 FPS 43–79 | ≈49 FPS 34–64 | ≈35 FPS 25–46 |
| RX 7600 | ≈65 FPS 46–85 | ≈52 FPS 36–68 | ≈37 FPS 26–48 |
| RTX 3060 | ≈67 FPS 47–87 | ≈54 FPS 38–70 | ≈39 FPS 27–51 |
| RTX 4060 | ≈83 FPS 58–108 | ≈67 FPS 47–87 | ≈48 FPS 34–62 |
| RTX 5060 | ≈92 FPS 64–120 | ≈74 FPS 52–96 | ≈53 FPS 37–69 |
| RTX 4070 | ≈137 FPS 96–178 | ≈110 FPS 77–143 | ≈79 FPS 55–103 |
| RX 9070 XT | ≈184 FPS 129–239 | ≈147 FPS 103–191 | ≈106 FPS 74–138 |
| RTX 5070 Ti | ≈183 FPS 128–238 | ≈147 FPS 103–191 | ≈106 FPS 74–138 |
For 60 FPS at 1080p High, our estimate starts at the RTX 4060 (about 67 FPS). The slowest card in the table, the GTX 1650, is estimated at about 43 FPS on 1080p Low. At 1440p High the 60 FPS line moves up to the RTX 4070 (about 79 FPS).
Card falls short?
The first current cards in this table that our model puts at 60 FPS or more at 1080p High (estimate ±30%), lowest first.
Laptops and integrated graphics
Estimate ±30%On a gaming laptop with an RTX 4060 Laptop GPU we estimate about 70 FPS at 1080p Medium and 56 FPS at High; the cheaper RTX 4050 Laptop GPU lands near 45 FPS at High. Without a graphics card, the integrated Radeon 780M found in many AMD laptops and handheld PCs is estimated at about 39 FPS on 1080p Low: playable on low settings, not much more. It sits below the minimum card's score (G3D Mark 6,866).
