Returning to compete with Battlefield, Delta Force uses a modern engine featuring environmental destruction. While minimum requirements are accessible (GTX 960), competitive settings scale up to require GTX 10/RTX 20 series GPUs and 16GB of RAM for the best experience.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 167 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 130 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 68 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 315% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060 5GB) for Delta Force. The Core i5-8500B is 2% below recommended, but 115% above minimum.
The Core i5-8500B determines the performance ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GPU has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1841. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 167 FPS, equivalent to 0.09 FPS per dollar.

At 1080p high, the Core i5-8500B sets the ceiling at about 193 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 309 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 38% (FPS gap: 116 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Core i5-8500B is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 36% | CPU Limits GPU 36% | CPU Limits GPU 38% | CPU Limits GPU 36% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 32% | CPU Limits GPU 31% | CPU Limits GPU 30% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 27% | CPU Limits GPU 33% | CPU Limits GPU 31% | CPU Limits GPU 32% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, 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 2% below recommended and your GPU is 315% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

Yes, the Core i5-8500B paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Delta Force smoothly up to 4k achieving around 68 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 315% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 2% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1841 ($192 CPU (Rank #351 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).
For Delta Force, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Core i5-8500B is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 4090 has extra headroom that a faster processor could take advantage of. This is especially noticeable at 1080p where CPU performance matters more. CPU-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.
Delta Force 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.
Delta Force requires at minimum a Core i3-4150 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 50 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-6500 and GeForce GTX 1060 5GB with 16 GB RAM. Your setup meets the minimum requirements but falls short of the recommended specs. You may need to lower some settings for smooth performance.
These Delta Force 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.
