Naraka: Bladepoint
Unlike shooters, Naraka focuses on melee combat with fluid animations. The game is visually dense and supports DLSS, which is vital for high frame rates at resolutions above 1080p. An SSD is critical for map loading, and 16GB of RAM is recommended for smooth gameplay.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 176 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 153 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 96 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 5070 is 187% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Naraka: Bladepoint. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 204% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-7700).
At lower resolutions (all 1080p settings, 1440p (low/medium)), the Ryzen 7 9800X3D sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (all 4k settings), the GeForce RTX 5070 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1440p (high/ultra).
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1015.38. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 176 FPS, equivalent to 0.17 FPS per dollar.

This chart answers a simple question: which upgrade is more likely to increase FPS first? In this case, the answer is more often the CPU.
The largest gap appears at 1080p Low, where the Ryzen 7 9800X3D reaches about 300 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 5070 still has headroom up to roughly 368 FPS.
That means the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is hitting its performance ceiling first, leaving a 18% gap versus the GeForce RTX 5070's available headroom in the most unbalanced scenario. Across all tested settings, this pairing is CPU-limited in 6 out of 12 cases, with 4 GPU-limited and 2 balanced results.
Overall, this is a CPU-leaning combination in this game.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is more often the limiting part in this game, so a CPU upgrade is somewhat more likely to deliver the bigger FPS gain than a GPU upgrade.
This chart shows which upgrade is more likely to unlock more FPS in each tested setting. The lower line represents the part that reaches its limit first. When the CPU and GPU lines stay close together, the system is more balanced. When the gap widens, one component is more clearly holding the other back. Hover any setting to inspect it.
The lower line is the current limiter. The closer the two lines are, the more balanced the CPU and GPU are for this game.
Each line represents an estimated FPS ceiling for one component, rather than live usage alone.
To estimate the CPU ceiling, we pair the Ryzen 7 9800X3D with GeForce RTX 5090, our current GPU anchor. To estimate the GPU ceiling, we pair the GeForce RTX 5070 with Ryzen 9 9950X3D, our current CPU anchor.
The lower line indicates the current limiter, since that component reaches its FPS ceiling first. In most scenarios, that is also the part most likely to deliver the bigger performance uplift if upgraded first.
The percentage shown represents the gap between the two ceilings. In practical terms, it shows how much of the stronger component's potential is left unused because the weaker one becomes the bottleneck first.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 5070 can run Naraka: Bladepoint smoothly up to 4k achieving around 96 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 187% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 204% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1,015.38 ($465.38 CPU + $550 GPU). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #4 for value).
For Naraka: Bladepoint, upgrading the CPU would usually improve performance first. In the Performance Limiter Analysis, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the side that most often caps the frame rate, while the GeForce RTX 5070 still has additional headroom in the tested presets. If you want to move closer to the current market ceiling, a stronger processor like Ryzen Threadripper 9980X for around $4,999 would be the clearest next step. The main bottleneck appears on the CPU side. The largest gap shows up at 1080p Low, where the CPU reaches about 300 FPS while the GPU still has headroom up to roughly 368 FPS. Across all tested settings, the distribution is 4/12 GPU-limited, 6/12 CPU-limited, and 2/12 balanced.
Naraka: Bladepoint 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.
Naraka: Bladepoint requires at minimum a Core i5-4460 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 750 Ti (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-7700 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 9800X3D and GeForce RTX 5070 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Naraka: Bladepoint 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.
