Sniper Elite: Resistance on Radeon RX 6950 XT

Meets recommendedEstimate · low confidence, ±30%

Yes. The Radeon RX 6950 XT meets Sniper Elite: Resistance's recommended spec. We estimate ~83 fps at 1080p high (range 58–108, low confidence, ±30%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~58 fps on high). Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 6 GB the game requires at minimum. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · low confidence, ±30%

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: medium preset
144 fps at 1080p: not reachable

AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.
