Uses the stable Tiger engine. It has dropped support for older OSs and requires significant storage space. A decent CPU is needed for raids and activities with many enemies.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the Intel Arc Pro A60 sets the ceiling at about 20 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 147 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 86% (FPS gap: 127 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Intel Arc Pro A60 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 67% | GPU Limits CPU 72% | GPU Limits CPU 75% | GPU Limits CPU 82% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 69% | GPU Limits CPU 75% | GPU Limits CPU 78% | GPU Limits CPU 83% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 78% | GPU Limits CPU 82% | GPU Limits CPU 83% | GPU Limits CPU 86% |
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 + Intel Arc Pro A60 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 30% and 58% and GPU utilization between 82% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while Intel Arc Pro A60 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 90% at 1080p to 93% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 42% to 37%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) Ultra, the Intel Arc Pro A60 averages 99% usage (98-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 34% (30-39%). 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 42% and GPU 90%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 39% and GPU 92%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 37% and GPU 93%. 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 38% (37-40%) and GPU 88% (85-91%), which keeps Intel Arc Pro A60 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The Intel Arc Pro A60 reaches 99% average load at 4K (Ultra HD) 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.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Intel Arc Pro A60 will struggle to run Destiny 2 at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 40 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $764 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $380 GPU). Since the GPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger GPU will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, upgrading to the RTX 2000 Ada Generation Embedded GPU (Rank #6 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Destiny 2, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Intel Arc Pro A60 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 setup meets the minimum requirements but falls short of the recommended specs. You may need to lower some settings for smooth performance.
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.
