Valve's new MOBA/Shooter hybrid. It has higher requirements than Dota 2, with 16GB of RAM recommended for a smooth experience.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 142 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 139 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 98 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB is 67% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Deadlock. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 161% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K).
The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB sets the FPS ceiling at 1440p ultra, 4k ultra, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at all 1080p settings, 1440p (low/medium/high), 4k (low/medium/high).
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $718.13. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 142 FPS, equivalent to 0.2 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 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 3060 12GB sets the ceiling at about 120 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 130 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 8% (FPS gap: 10 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 2/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 10/12. Confidence is low because both ceilings are very close in this cell.
The Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 3060 12GB stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 6% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 8% |
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.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 3060 12GB can run Deadlock smoothly up to 4k achieving around 98 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 67% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 161% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $718.13 ($378.13 CPU + $340 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 Ti for around $599 (Rank #185 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Deadlock, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB 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 ultra, 4k ultra.
Deadlock 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.
Deadlock requires at minimum a Core i5-2500K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 660 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-6700K and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 3060 12GB both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Deadlock 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.
