A Source engine sandbox where performance depends entirely on the mods and contraptions you spawn. RAM errors are common on systems with only 4GB.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report

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 Intel Arc Pro B50 sets the ceiling at about 137 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 346 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 60% (FPS gap: 209 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Intel Arc Pro B50 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 35% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 49% | GPU Limits CPU 56% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 35% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 50% | GPU Limits CPU 58% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 42% | GPU Limits CPU 47% | GPU Limits CPU 53% | GPU Limits CPU 60% |
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.
See how your processor and graphics card compare against the game official minimum and recommended system specs. The placement of your hardware is calculated using relative synthetic performance scores to help you gauge overall playability.
Your CPU is 160% above and your GPU is 269% above the recommended specs. Ultra settings at 1080p, or High at 1440p/4K.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the Intel Arc Pro B50 can run Garry's Mod smoothly up to 4k achieving around 128 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 269% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 160% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $727.13 ($378.13 CPU + $349 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 Quadro RTX 4000 (móvel) for around $900 (Rank #105 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Garry's Mod, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Intel Arc Pro B50 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: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Garry's Mod 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.
Garry's Mod requires at minimum a Pentium 4 (CPU) and GeForce 6 series (GPU) with 4 GB RAM and 5 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5 and GeForce GTX 750 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Intel Arc Pro B50 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Garry's Mod 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.
