Sid Meier’s Civilization VI on Arc A380
Yes. The Arc A380 meets Sid Meier’s Civilization VI's recommended spec. We estimate ~67 fps at 1080p high (range 53–80, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~47 fps on high). Its 6 GB of video memory covers the 2 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 113 | 79 | 48 |
| medium | 87 | 61 | 36 |
| high | 67 | 47 | 28 |
| ultra | 53 | 37 | 22 |
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: high preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: medium preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
Intel Arc card: use XeSS (native on Arc) or FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset. DLSS is not available.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Arc A380 back.
- Processor needed for ~67 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (FX-8350): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~67 fps.
Video memory
- Arc A380: 6 GB
- Minimum spec: 1 GB (+5 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 2 GB (+4 GB headroom)
