Will i have 165FPS and above if i buy RX 7600 XT?
Well i use RX 580 and i5-9400F right now. If i upgrade my GPU will i get 165FPS and above? Sometimes i get 100-140FPS and sometimes 80-90FPS and even 60FPS.

Userbenchmark suggests that you'll way more than double your FPS with that upgrade.

Thanks. I have i5-9400F right now.

Thanks. I have i5-9400F right now.
That's your CPU. Are you upgrading that too? I'm not very clued up on CPUs, sorry. The CPU won't make a huge different to your frames per second generally though. Occasionally you can experience CPU bottlenecks, dependent on the game. Fairly rare though.

Well i'm not upgrading my CPU right now. I might in future.
Depends on the game you're playing.

Well i struggle with CS2. And i would like to play newer games easily.
Do you mean a minimum of 165 ? Average ? In any case it depends on the game. I have benchmarked several games with a 7600 XT over on the benchmarks page:

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/benchmarks-performance/

Overall you will play many games maxed out with a good frame rate but few if any will give you a minimum of 165 FPS. Several games went from a minimum of sub 60 to well above from my RX 590 to an RX 7600 XT. From the RX 590 to the 7600 XT some games that went from laggy to playable were Heavy Rain, The Suicide of Rachel Foster, Unforgiving: A Northern Hymn, The Witcher 3, Detroit: Become Human, Shadow Warrior 2, and Hard Reset. Some games went from damn near unplayable on my RX 590 to almost a 60FPS min such as The Outer Worlds, and Inner Chains.

At 2560P the 7600XT was borderline for me. I ended up returning it, saving up, and buying a 7800XT. That being said if I ended up having to stick with the 7600 XT I would have been content as it did make a good difference in many games my RX 590 didn't do well in.

What games are you looking to get an increase on ?

Well CS2 and newer games.

Well CS2 and newer games.

what are newer gemes?

this is a brand new game
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2638370/Five_Nights_at_Freddys_Into_the_Pit/

yes you will have 165FPS in these kind of games

or are you talking about elden ring DLC, cyberpunk, Horizon Forbidden West?
no you will not. 60 is perfectly fine. everything above, lets say 90FPS is very hard to even recognize
144hz, 165hz, 200hz monitors are a waste of money. it is totally marketing BS.

Avoid Userbenchmark like the plague. They are diehard AMD haters, and it's not even because Intel or NVIDIA is paying them, they are just run by really bad people.

That depends on the game, the graphics preset, and the display resolution. On Linux, it will also depend on your display protocol, and on your specific driver package if using a Geforce card.

Look up video benchmarks on YouTube. The games I'd recommend you see test results for are Redout 2 and Alan Wake 2, since those two games are primarily GPU limited on most systems.

That CPU will hold you back in some newer games especially if they're made with UE5, stuff like THE FINALS really won't play nice with Coffee Lake Refresh so I would advise upgrading the CPU to a 12th gen Intel or one of the newer Ryzens if you have the budget for a new CPU + a whole new mainboard. AVOID CORE 13TH AND 14TH GEN, they're almost all defective and Intel is still pushing out a fixed revision that doesn't self destruct anymore.

If you use Steam Game Recording, you'll only be able to get good performance with a Radeon GPU as the NVENC encoder isn't properly set up with Steam for Linux yet. But then NVIDIA has the best upscaler and RT performance, so thats up to you.

That seems to be the case, yes. But there isn't another website like it, for comparing raw figures the way they do. It's useful to gauge where one GPU will sit next to another in the grand scheme of things. I've been AMD-only for the past five or six years, but still use their site to remind myself how powerful one card is to another.
