This tactical shooter uses the AnvilNext 2.0 engine and features procedural environmental destruction, which can be taxing on the CPU. The Vulkan API helps older hardware maintain performance by better utilizing available resources. Siege is sensitive to RAM speed and latency. The HD Texture Pack can push VRAM usage over 6GB, so cards with 8GB or more are recommended for the best visual experience at 1080p or 1440p.
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 Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU sets the ceiling at about 127 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 318 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 60% (FPS gap: 191 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon Pro V520 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 32% | GPU Limits CPU 35% | GPU Limits CPU 26% | GPU Limits CPU 39% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 42% | GPU Limits CPU 51% | GPU Limits CPU 45% | GPU Limits CPU 54% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 42% | GPU Limits CPU 53% | GPU Limits CPU 55% | GPU Limits CPU 60% |
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 Pro V520 MxGPU pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 17% and 100% and GPU utilization between 52% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 80% at 1080p to 81% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 67% to 59%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1080p (Full HD) High, the Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU averages 100% usage (100-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 42% (37-48%). 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 67% and GPU 80%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 59% and GPU 81%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 59% and GPU 81%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) High is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 42% (37-48%) and GPU 100% (100-100%), which keeps Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU 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: 92% avg, Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU: 100% 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 Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU can run Rainbow Six Siege smoothly up to 4k achieving around 126 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 129% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 420% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $724 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $340 GPU (Rank #18 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 Rainbow Six Siege, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon Pro V520 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.
Rainbow Six Siege 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.
Rainbow Six Siege requires at minimum a Core i3-560 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 460 (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 61 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-2500K and GeForce GTX 670 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon Pro V520 MxGPU both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Rainbow Six Siege 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.
