A dense RPG where Act 3 becomes a CPU stress test due to the high number of NPCs. An SSD is vital for loading times. 16GB of RAM is recommended, and the game benefits greatly from upscaling tech like DLSS and FSR.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 109 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 81 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 56 to 84 FPS.
The Radeon RX 6750 XT is 26% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Baldur's Gate 3. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 94% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700K).
The Radeon RX 6750 XT sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, 1440p (low/medium/high), all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1440p ultra.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $698.13. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 109 FPS, equivalent to 0.16 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 Radeon RX 6750 XT sets the ceiling at about 237 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 383 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 38% (FPS gap: 146 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon RX 6750 XT 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 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 38% |
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 Radeon RX 6750 XT can run Baldur's Gate 3 smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 81 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 26% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 94% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $698.13 ($378.13 CPU + $320 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 4070 Ti for around $799 (Rank #248 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Baldur's Gate 3, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon RX 6750 XT 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, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Baldur's Gate 3 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.
Baldur's Gate 3 requires at minimum a Core i5-4690 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 970 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 150 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-8700K and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon RX 6750 XT both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Baldur's Gate 3 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.
