This extraction shooter bets on visual fidelity with UE5 and DX12, requiring AVX2 support. It uses volumetric lighting and dense effects, with a recommended baseline of RTX 2070 / RX 5700 XT, indicating it is a demanding title.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 34 to 74 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 25 to 55 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 15 to 30 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile is 38% below recommended, but 15% above minimum for ARC Raiders. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 126% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-9600K).
The GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile 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 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile sets the ceiling at about 15 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has headroom up to 154 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 90% (FPS gap: 139 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile 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 81% | GPU Limits CPU 81% | GPU Limits CPU 82% | GPU Limits CPU 85% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 82% | GPU Limits CPU 82% | GPU Limits CPU 84% | GPU Limits CPU 88% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 87% | GPU Limits CPU 87% | GPU Limits CPU 87% | GPU Limits CPU 90% |
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 126% below recommended and your GPU is 38% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D and GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile will struggle to run ARC Raiders at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 34 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 ARC Raiders, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile 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.
ARC Raiders 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.
ARC Raiders requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 35 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-9600K and GeForce RTX 2070 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 ARC Raiders 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.
