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.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D + RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 9% and 66% and GPU utilization between 99% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q becomes the primary limiter at high visual load. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 100% at 1080p to 100% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 51% to 23%.
This profile is GPU-bound. At 1080p (Full HD) Low, the RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q averages 100% usage (100-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 46% (28-63%), indicating the graphics pipeline is the limiting stage.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 51% and GPU 100%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 37% and GPU 100%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 23% and GPU 100%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 46% (28-63%) and GPU 100% (100-100%), which keeps RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q reaches 100% average load at 1080p (Full HD) Low while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q can run Path of Exile 2 smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 62 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 81% below the recommended specs, and your CPU is 53% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $8949 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $8565 GPU). Since the GPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger GPU will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, upgrading to the RTX 2000 Ada Generation Embedded GPU (Rank #6 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Path of Exile 2, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell DC-12Q 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.
Path of Exile 2 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.
Path of Exile 2 requires at minimum a Core i7-7700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 100 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10500 and GeForce RTX 2060 with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Path of Exile 2 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.
