This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the Arc A770 sets the ceiling at about 49 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 147 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 67% (FPS gap: 98 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Arc A770 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 51% | GPU Limits CPU 55% | GPU Limits CPU 56% | GPU Limits CPU 63% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 49% | GPU Limits CPU 54% | GPU Limits CPU 55% | GPU Limits CPU 62% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 60% | GPU Limits CPU 63% | GPU Limits CPU 63% | GPU Limits CPU 67% |
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, not generic utilization heuristics.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D + Arc A770 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 12% and 48% and GPU utilization between 71% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while Arc A770 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 88% at 1080p to 92% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 28% to 23%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) Ultra, the Arc A770 averages 100% usage (99-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 32% (29-35%). This shows the graphics pipeline is carrying most of the workload, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 28% and GPU 88%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 27% and GPU 91%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 23% and GPU 92%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.
1080p (Full HD) High is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 41% (34-48%) and GPU 92% (85-99%), which keeps Arc A770 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The Arc A770 reaches 100% average load at 1440p (2K QHD) Ultra while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.
Understanding Hardware Utilization: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. They describe hardware load, but they do not directly tell you which component sets the FPS ceiling.
Important: a CPU or GPU can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. Two processors can both show 40% usage and still deliver very different frame rates, depending on per-core speed, cache, engine threading, driver overhead, and frame preparation efficiency.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the Arc A770 can run Destiny 2 smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 93 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 38% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 164% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $664 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $280 GPU (Rank #56 Value)). 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 5060 for around $299 (Rank #2 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Destiny 2, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Arc A770 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.
Destiny 2 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.
Destiny 2 requires at minimum a Core i3-3250 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 660 (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 105 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-2400 and GeForce GTX 970 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Arc A770 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Destiny 2 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.
