Optimized for mobile roots, the PC version offers higher resolution textures and volumetric shadows while keeping minimum specs low. It is light on the CPU but requires a dedicated GPU for stable 1080p/60FPS gameplay.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 60 FPS
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 57 to 71 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 56 to 70 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 42 to 58 FPS.
The GeForce GTX 1080 is 55% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Genshin Impact. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 0% above the recommended CPU (Core i7).
At lower resolutions (all 1080p settings), the Ryzen 7 7800X3D sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (all 1440p settings, all 4k settings), the GeForce GTX 1080 becomes the FPS-limiting side.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $469.13. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 57 FPS, equivalent to 0.12 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 1080p low, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D sets the ceiling at about 94 FPS, while the GeForce GTX 1080 could reach 143 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 34% (FPS gap: 49 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 4/12 cells, GPU limits 8/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce GTX 1080 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 34% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 17% | GPU Limits CPU 17% | GPU Limits CPU 17% | GPU Limits CPU 17% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 19% | GPU Limits CPU 23% | GPU Limits CPU 24% | GPU Limits CPU 24% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce GTX 1080 will struggle to run Genshin Impact at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 57 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $469.13 ($378.13 CPU + $91 GPU). Since the GPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger GPU will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, upgrading to the GeForce RTX 3070 for around $499 (Rank #137 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Genshin Impact, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce GTX 1080 is the limiting factor here, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has spare capacity. A more powerful GPU would unlock higher FPS, especially at higher resolutions and quality presets. GPU-limited at: 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra. CPU-limited at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra.
Genshin Impact does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Genshin Impact requires at minimum a Core i5 (CPU) and GeForce GT 1030 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 100 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce GTX 1080 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Genshin Impact FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
