Active Matter on Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB
Yes. The Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB is well above Active Matter's recommended spec. We estimate ~111 fps at 1080p high (range 89–134, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~78 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 189 | 133 | 80 |
| medium | 145 | 101 | 61 |
| high | 111 | 78 | 47 |
| ultra | 89 | 62 | 37 |
Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: ultra preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: medium preset
AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB back.
- Processor needed for ~111 fps: Core i3-12100 or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 5 3600): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 111.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB: 16 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Active Matter; usually the cheapest.
