This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the Quadro P5200 sets the ceiling at about 18 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 128 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 86% (FPS gap: 110 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Quadro P5200 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 64% | GPU Limits CPU 66% | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 75% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 72% | GPU Limits CPU 75% | GPU Limits CPU 78% | GPU Limits CPU 81% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 80% | GPU Limits CPU 82% | GPU Limits CPU 85% | 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 + Quadro P5200 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 10% and 32% and GPU utilization between 82% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while Quadro P5200 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 94% at 1080p to 96% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 24% to 16%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) Ultra, the Quadro P5200 averages 100% usage (100-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 16% (11-22%). 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 94%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 22% and GPU 95%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 16% and GPU 96%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1440p (2K QHD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 22% (14-29%) and GPU 88% (83-93%), which keeps Quadro P5200 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The Quadro P5200 reaches 100% 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 Quadro P5200 will struggle to run ARC Raiders at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 37 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $624 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $240 GPU (Rank #28 Value)). Your build is already very cost-efficient, but if you want even more FPS, the next good option is upgrading the GPU. For example, upgrading to the Quadro RTX 4000 (móvel) for around $900 (Rank #11 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For ARC Raiders, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Quadro P5200 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.
ARC Raiders 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.
ARC Raiders requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 35 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-9600K and GeForce RTX 2070 with 16 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 ARC Raiders 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.
