The 'COD HQ' ecosystem uses the IW 9.0 engine, which is very demanding on storage and VRAM, often exceeding 100GB in size. 12GB of RAM is the new minimum, and 8GB VRAM cards are starting to struggle at 1440p due to aggressive shader caching and high-fidelity assets.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 88 FPS. At 1440p, frame rates range from 54 to 96 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 27 to 57 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design is 21% below recommended, but 69% above minimum for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 207% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-6700K).
The GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom.
This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 1080p ultra, the GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design sets the ceiling at about 88 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has headroom up to 254 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 65% (FPS gap: 166 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 61% | GPU Limits CPU 63% | GPU Limits CPU 64% | GPU Limits CPU 65% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 61% | GPU Limits CPU 63% | GPU Limits CPU 64% | GPU Limits CPU 65% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 61% | GPU Limits CPU 63% | GPU Limits CPU 64% | GPU Limits CPU 65% |
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 and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.
See how your processor and graphics card compare against the game official minimum and recommended system specs. The placement of your hardware is calculated using relative synthetic performance scores to help you gauge overall playability.
Your CPU is 207% below recommended and your GPU is 21% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design can run Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 88 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 21% below the recommended specs, and your CPU is 207% above the recommended requirements.
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 Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 2070 Super with Max-Q Design is the limiting factor here, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D 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.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 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.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 requires at minimum a Core i5-6600 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 102 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-6700K and GeForce RTX 3060 with 12 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 Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 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.
