This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1440p low, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti sets the ceiling at about 224 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 272 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 18% (FPS gap: 48 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 10/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 2/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 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 9% | GPU Limits CPU 7% | Balanced | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 18% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 11% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 15% | GPU Limits CPU 14% | GPU Limits CPU 12% | GPU Limits CPU 12% |
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 Ti pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 33% and 94% and GPU utilization between 49% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4070 Ti carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 75% at 1080p to 92% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 72% to 57%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) High, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti averages 98% usage (96-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 52% (38-67%). 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 72% and GPU 75%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 58% and GPU 90%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 57% and GPU 92%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1440p (2K QHD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 66% (61-70%) and GPU 93% (89-97%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4070 Ti well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (Ryzen 7 7800X3D: 85% avg, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti: 98% avg). A targeted upgrade should follow your target resolution: GPU first for higher image quality, CPU first for higher minimum FPS.
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 Ti can run Deadlock smoothly up to 4k achieving around 98 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 214% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 161% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $974 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $590 GPU (Rank #42 Value)). Your GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 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 Ti 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 Deadlock performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Deadlock 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.
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 4070 Ti 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.
