Built on a modified Source engine, Apex Legends retains the scalability of Titanfall 2. Fast movement demands high frame rates for fluidity. VRAM can be a bottleneck if the 'Texture Streaming Budget' is set too high. While it handles 8GB of RAM better than some competitors, 16GB is recommended. It is generally less CPU-intensive than Warzone, allowing older quad-core CPUs to remain viable.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 300 FPS
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 103 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 92 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 37 to 77 FPS.
The Radeon Pro SSG is 14% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 970) for Apex Legends. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 278% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-3570K).
The Radeon Pro SSG determines the performance ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, executing at maximum capacity.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1884. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 103 FPS, equivalent to 0.05 FPS per dollar.

At 4k ultra, the Radeon Pro SSG sets the ceiling at about 30 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 178 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 83% (FPS gap: 148 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon Pro SSG 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 50% | GPU Limits CPU 58% | GPU Limits CPU 68% | GPU Limits CPU 72% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 60% | GPU Limits CPU 67% | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 77% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 72% | GPU Limits CPU 76% | GPU Limits CPU 79% | GPU Limits CPU 83% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the Radeon Pro SSG can run Apex Legends smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 92 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 14% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 278% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1884 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $1500 GPU (Rank #116 Value)). Your Radeon Pro SSG is currently the main performance bottleneck and its market value ($1500) is actually higher than newer, faster alternatives. Trading it or upgrading could yield immediate profit and performance gains. For example, upgrading to the Quadro RTX 4000 (móvel) for around $900 (Rank #11 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance while costing less than your current GPU.
For Apex Legends, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon Pro SSG 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.
Apex Legends 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.
Apex Legends requires at minimum a Core i3-6300 (CPU) and GeForce GT 640 (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 56 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-3570K and GeForce GTX 970 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon Pro SSG both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Apex Legends 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.
