Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 46 to 84 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 26 to 54 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 16 to 34 FPS.
The Radeon RX 5600M is 12% below recommended, but 119% above minimum for Deadlock. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 161% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K).
The Radeon RX 5600M 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 1440p ultra, the Radeon RX 5600M sets the ceiling at about 27 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 207 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 87% (FPS gap: 180 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon RX 5600M 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 68% | GPU Limits CPU 70% | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 74% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 81% | GPU Limits CPU 84% | GPU Limits CPU 85% | GPU Limits CPU 87% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 80% | GPU Limits CPU 84% | GPU Limits CPU 86% | 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 + Radeon RX 5600M pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 14% and 71% and GPU utilization between 69% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays in a controlled operating range, while Radeon RX 5600M carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 87% at 1080p to 93% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 49% to 33%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) High, the Radeon RX 5600M averages 96% usage (91-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 32% (28-36%). 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 49% and GPU 87%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 41% and GPU 92%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 33% and GPU 93%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 62% (55-69%) and GPU 86% (84-88%), which keeps Radeon RX 5600M well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The Radeon RX 5600M reaches 96% average load at 1440p (2K QHD) High 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 Radeon RX 5600M will struggle to run Deadlock at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 46 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
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 Deadlock, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon RX 5600M 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.
Deadlock 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.
Deadlock requires at minimum a Core i5-2500K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 660 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-6700K and GeForce GTX 1060 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 Deadlock 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.
