Being turn-based, extreme FPS is less critical here. The game features high-fidelity models and uses considerable storage for audio and cutscenes. 8GB of RAM is recommended for smooth operation.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 60 FPS
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 49 to 53 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 49 to 52 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 28 to 45 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 3050 8GB is 25% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Honkai: Star Rail. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 59% above the recommended CPU (Core i7).
Honkai: Star Rail 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.
At lower resolutions (all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, 4k low), the Ryzen 7 7800X3D sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (4k (high/ultra)), the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 4k medium.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $593. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 49 FPS, equivalent to 0.08 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p medium, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D sets the ceiling at about 62 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB could reach 95 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 35% (FPS gap: 33 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 9/12 cells, GPU limits 2/12, balanced 1/12.
Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 31% | CPU Limits GPU 35% | CPU Limits GPU 24% | CPU Limits GPU 26% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 29% | CPU Limits GPU 32% | CPU Limits GPU 11% | CPU Limits GPU 13% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 11% | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 28% | GPU Limits CPU 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.
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 and GeForce RTX 3050 8GB will struggle to run Honkai: Star Rail at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 49 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
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 CPU. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).
For Honkai: Star Rail, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 3050 8GB 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 high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k low. GPU-limited at: 4k high, 4k ultra.
Honkai: Star Rail 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, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.
Honkai: Star Rail requires at minimum a Core i3 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 650 (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 8 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 Honkai: Star Rail 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.
