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 Ryzen 7 6800U sets the ceiling at about 48 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has headroom up to 154 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 69% (FPS gap: 106 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U 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 46% | GPU Limits CPU 46% | GPU Limits CPU 49% | GPU Limits CPU 56% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 51% | GPU Limits CPU 52% | GPU Limits CPU 57% | GPU Limits CPU 63% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 55% | GPU Limits CPU 58% | GPU Limits CPU 62% | GPU Limits CPU 69% |
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 hardware is below minimum requirements. GPU is the limiting factor (52% below minimum). Expect performance issues. Low settings recommended.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U can run ARC Raiders smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 71 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 74% below the recommended specs, and your CPU is 126% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $915.38 ($465.38 CPU + $450 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 GeForce GTX 980 for around $549 (Rank #79 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For ARC Raiders, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U 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 hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor 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.
