A Valve classic that depends heavily on single-thread clock speed. It runs well on older hardware but benefits from a fast CPU.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 320 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 304 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 225 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is 10486% above the recommended GPU (GeForce 8600 GT) for Team Fortress 2. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 1465% above the recommended CPU (Core 2 Duo).
Team Fortress 2 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 4070 SUPER.
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER sets the FPS ceiling at 1080p (medium/high/ultra), all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p low.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $984. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 320 FPS, equivalent to 0.33 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER sets the ceiling at about 238 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 437 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 46% (FPS gap: 199 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 11/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 1/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4070 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) | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 15% | GPU Limits CPU 17% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 17% | GPU Limits CPU 21% | GPU Limits CPU 22% | GPU Limits CPU 25% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 31% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 41% | GPU Limits CPU 46% |
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 4070 SUPER can run Team Fortress 2 smoothly up to 4k achieving around 225 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 10486% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 1465% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $984 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $600 GPU (Rank #50 Value)). Your GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end card with a significantly better value rating. For example, upgrading to the GeForce RTX 5090 for around $1999 (Rank #80 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
Your GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is already a top-tier graphics card. While it's technically the limiting factor here (which means you are fully utilizing your GPU's visual horsepower exactly as intended), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Team Fortress 2 performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p high, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra.
Team Fortress 2 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.
Team Fortress 2 requires at minimum a Pentium 4 (3.0 GHz) (CPU) and GeForce 6 series (GPU) with 1 GB RAM and 15 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core 2 Duo and GeForce 8600 GT with 2 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Team Fortress 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.
