Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 173 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 139 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 83 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile is 115% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 970) for Destiny 2. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 164% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-2400).
The GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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.
This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1440p ultra, the GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile sets the ceiling at about 138 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 250 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 45% (FPS gap: 112 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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 17% | GPU Limits CPU 19% | GPU Limits CPU 19% | GPU Limits CPU 31% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 31% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 39% | GPU Limits CPU 45% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 33% | GPU Limits CPU 40% | GPU Limits CPU 39% | GPU Limits CPU 43% |
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 + GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 2% and 50% and GPU utilization between 71% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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 24% to 19%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) Ultra, the GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile averages 100% usage (99-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 26% (17-35%). 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 24% and GPU 88%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 23% and GPU 92%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 19% and GPU 92%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.
1440p (2K QHD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 17% (7-27%) and GPU 85% (75-95%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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 GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile can run Destiny 2 smoothly up to 4k achieving around 83 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 115% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 164% above the recommended requirements.
Price data is not currently available for this combination. In general, look for setups where the CPU and GPU are balanced — this ensures you're not overspending on one component that the other can't keep up with.
For Destiny 2, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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 GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile 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.
