What resolution is the RX 7800 XT best for?

Based on its performance tier and 16GB of VRAM, the RX 7800 XT is happiest at 1440p. Upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) can push it one tier higher in supported games by lowering the internal render resolution. Remember a bottleneck cuts both ways — pair it with a CPU that can keep up using the Bottleneck Estimator.
