Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 104 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 76 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 56 to 93 FPS.
The Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition is 185% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 650) for Among Us. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 203% above the recommended CPU (Core i3-4330).
At lower resolutions (1080p low, 1440p (low/medium/high), 4k low), the Ryzen 7 9800X3D sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1080p (medium/high), 4k (high/ultra)), the Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p ultra, 1440p ultra, 4k medium.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $915.38. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 104 FPS, equivalent to 0.11 FPS per dollar.

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 Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition sets the ceiling at about 56 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has headroom up to 74 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 24% (FPS gap: 18 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 9/12 cells, CPU limits 3/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition 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) | CPU Limits GPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 21% | GPU Limits CPU 21% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 21% | GPU Limits CPU 21% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 21% | GPU Limits CPU 24% |
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.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition can run Among Us smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 76 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 185% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 203% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $915.38 ($465.38 CPU + $450 GPU). Your Ryzen 7 9800X3D provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end processor with a significantly better value rating. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #4 for value).
Your Ryzen 7 9800X3D is already an incredibly powerful processor. While it's technically the first component to hit its limit (which is completely normal in state-of-the-art builds), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Among Us performance right now. CPU fully utilized at: 1080p low, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 4k low. GPU-limited at: 1080p medium, 1080p high, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Among Us 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.
Among Us requires at minimum a Core i3-4330 (CPU) and GeForce GT 610 (GPU) with 1 GB RAM and 250 MB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i3-4330 and GeForce GTX 650 with 4 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 9800X3D and Radeon R9 M295X Mac Edition both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Among Us 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.
