Significant FPS boost with Unreal Engine 5.6

Screenshot 2025-ur

With Unreal Engine 5, Epic Games had already made a major leap toward realistic graphics. The update to version 5.6, released in early June, further increased performance – as shown in a comparison by the YouTube channel MxBenchmarkPC.

GPU Limit: Up to 25% more FPS

The Paris Tech Demo was tested in 1440p to fully stress the GPU. Compared to version 5.4, the results showed an average increase of 20% in FPS, with peaks of up to 25%. This came with around 10% higher power consumption and slightly increased temperatures.

CPU Limit: Up to 50% more performance

At reduced resolution (720p), CPU limits were tested. Here, FPS increased by 35%, with peaks of up to 50%. Improvements such as Fast Geometry Streaming, asynchronous physics states, and optimized hardware ray tracing contributed significantly.

Test System

The tests were run on a system with an Intel Core i7-14700F and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080. You can find similar systems in the Memory PC webshop.

Note: The results only compare version 5.4 to 5.6. Improvements introduced in version 5.5 were not considered separately.
