A massive evolution with physically based rendering and fluid animations. The high density of effects creates a heavy load on both CPU and GPU. It scales well up to 16 threads.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 73 FPS. At 1440p, frame rates range from 49 to 110 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 22 to 48 FPS.
The Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU is 45% below minimum GPU requirement for Path of Exile 2. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 53% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-10500).
The Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU 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 4k ultra, the Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU sets the ceiling at about 24 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 100 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 76% (FPS gap: 76 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU 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 47% | GPU Limits CPU 53% | GPU Limits CPU 59% | GPU Limits CPU 68% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 58% | GPU Limits CPU 62% | GPU Limits CPU 66% | GPU Limits CPU 75% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 69% | GPU Limits CPU 68% | GPU Limits CPU 67% | GPU Limits CPU 76% |
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 + Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 12% and 85% and GPU utilization between 99% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays in a controlled operating range, while Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 100% at 1080p to 100% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 67% to 24%.
The utilization pattern is relatively even. The Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU reaches 100% average at its highest-load preset, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D peaks at 72% average. This suggests a fairly controlled load distribution, but the actual FPS-limiting side should still be read from the limiter analysis above.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 67% and GPU 100%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 38% and GPU 100%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 24% and GPU 100%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 61% (41-81%) and GPU 100% (100-100%), which keeps Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU remain reasonably matched for this title.
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 Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU can run Path of Exile 2 smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 73 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 69% below the recommended specs, and your CPU is 53% 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 Path of Exile 2, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon Instinct MI25 MxGPU 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.
Path of Exile 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.
Path of Exile 2 requires at minimum a Core i7-7700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 100 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10500 and GeForce RTX 2060 with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Path of Exile 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.
