Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 190 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 186 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 120 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is 287% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1050) for Warframe. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 344% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-4460).
Warframe supports: AFMF. This game does not have native DLSS 3 or FSR 3 Frame Generation support. AFMF is AMD-exclusive and not compatible with GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER.
The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $664. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 190 FPS, equivalent to 0.29 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER sets the ceiling at about 69 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 264 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 74% (FPS gap: 195 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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 35% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 50% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 53% | GPU Limits CPU 58% | GPU Limits CPU 61% | GPU Limits CPU 67% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 72% | GPU Limits CPU 73% | GPU Limits CPU 74% |
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.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER can run Warframe smoothly up to 4k achieving around 120 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 287% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 344% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $664 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $280 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 3070 Ti for around $599 (Rank #37 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Warframe, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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 high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra.
Warframe currently only supports AFMF (AMD Fluid Motion Frames) for frame generation, which is an AMD-exclusive technology. Because you are using an NVIDIA GPU, you cannot use Frame Generation for this specific game. However, the game does support DLSS Upscaling and FSR Upscaling, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.
Warframe requires at minimum a Core i7-860 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 650 (GPU) with 4 GB RAM and 50 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-4460 and GeForce GTX 1050 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Warframe 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.
