This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k medium, the Radeon RX 6400 sets the ceiling at about 10 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 173 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 94% (FPS gap: 163 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon RX 6400 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 87% | GPU Limits CPU 90% | GPU Limits CPU 88% | GPU Limits CPU 91% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 86% | GPU Limits CPU 90% | GPU Limits CPU 90% | GPU Limits CPU 93% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 91% | GPU Limits CPU 94% | GPU Limits CPU 94% | GPU Limits CPU 93% |
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 6400 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 12% and 64% and GPU utilization between 86% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while Radeon RX 6400 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 93% at 1080p to 100% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 42% to 25%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) Medium, the Radeon RX 6400 averages 100% usage (99-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 25% (12-38%). 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 42% and GPU 93%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 38% and GPU 99%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 25% and GPU 100%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 44% (25-64%) and GPU 91% (86-96%), which keeps Radeon RX 6400 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 6400 reaches 100% average load at 4K (Ultra HD) Medium 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 6400 will struggle to run Marvel Rivals at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 28 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $523 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $139 GPU (Rank #36 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 GeForce RTX 5060 for around $299 (Rank #2 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Marvel Rivals, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon RX 6400 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.
Marvel Rivals 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.
Marvel Rivals requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10400 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Marvel Rivals 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.
