Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 109 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 98 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 57 to 99 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 279% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Deadlock. The Ryzen 5 220 is 43% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K).
The Ryzen 5 220 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: $1799. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 109 FPS, equivalent to 0.06 FPS per dollar.

At 1440p medium, the Ryzen 5 220 sets the ceiling at about 128 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 245 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 48% (FPS gap: 117 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Ryzen 5 220 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 35% | CPU Limits GPU 41% | CPU Limits GPU 35% | CPU Limits GPU 44% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 42% | CPU Limits GPU 48% | CPU Limits GPU 42% | CPU Limits GPU 48% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 33% | CPU Limits GPU 39% | CPU Limits GPU 36% | CPU Limits GPU 41% |
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.

Yes, the Ryzen 5 220 paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Deadlock smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 98 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 279% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 43% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1799 ($150 CPU (Rank #15 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your build is already very cost-efficient, but if you want even more FPS, the next good option is upgrading the CPU. For example, the Ryzen 9 7845HX is a great upgrade option (Rank #1 for value).
For Deadlock, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 5 220 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.
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 5 220 and GeForce RTX 4090 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.
