Percentages show how much potential FPS of the stronger component is lost because the other component has a lower FPS ceiling.
🧠Methodology

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Can the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB run Marvel Rivals well?

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB will struggle to run Marvel Rivals at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 11 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.

2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Marvel Rivals?

This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $733 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $349 GPU (Rank #33 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 4070 Ti for around $799 (Rank #42 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.

3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Marvel Rivals performance?

For Marvel Rivals, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB 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 high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra.

4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Marvel Rivals?

Yes! Marvel Rivals supports DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen and AFMF, and your Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB is compatible with FSR 3 Frame Gen and AFMF. With Frame Generation enabled, you can expect a 1.5x-2x FPS multiplier on top of native framerates, significantly boosting perceived smoothness.

5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Marvel Rivals?

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 Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.

6How accurate are these Marvel Rivals FPS estimates for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB?

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.
