Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 71 FPS. At 1440p, frame rates range from 52 to 83 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 25 to 46 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB is 25% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Deadlock. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 161% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K).
Deadlock 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 3050 8GB.
The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB 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: $593. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 71 FPS, equivalent to 0.12 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB sets the ceiling at about 24 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 112 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 79% (FPS gap: 88 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 3050 8GB 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 52% | GPU Limits CPU 50% | GPU Limits CPU 51% | GPU Limits CPU 56% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 69% | GPU Limits CPU 68% | GPU Limits CPU 70% | GPU Limits CPU 73% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 74% | GPU Limits CPU 73% | GPU Limits CPU 77% | GPU Limits CPU 79% |
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 3050 8GB can run Deadlock smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 71 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 25% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 161% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $593 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $209 GPU (Rank #23 Value)). Your build is already very cost-efficient, but if you want even more FPS, the next good option is upgrading the GPU. For example, upgrading to the GeForce RTX 5060 for around $299 (Rank #2 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Deadlock, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB 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.
Deadlock 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 FSR Upscaling, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.
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 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 3050 8GB 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.
