Delta Force
Returning to compete with Battlefield, Delta Force uses a modern engine featuring environmental destruction. While minimum requirements are accessible (GTX 960), competitive settings scale up to require GTX 10/RTX 20 series GPUs and 16GB of RAM for the best experience.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 81 FPS. At 1440p, frame rates range from 52 to 81 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 30 to 43 FPS.
The Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U is 31% below minimum GPU requirement for Delta Force. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 340% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-6500).
The Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U 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.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $915.38. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 81 FPS, equivalent to 0.09 FPS per dollar.

This chart answers a simple question: which upgrade is more likely to increase FPS first? In this case, the answer is clearly the GPU.
The largest gap appears at 4K Ultra, where the Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U reaches about 30 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D still has headroom up to roughly 133 FPS.
That means the Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U is hitting its performance ceiling first, leaving a 77% gap versus the Ryzen 7 9800X3D's available headroom in the most unbalanced scenario. Across all tested settings, this pairing is GPU-limited in 12 out of 12 cases, with 0 CPU-limited and 0 balanced results.
Overall, this is a clearly GPU-bound combination in this game.
The Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U is consistently the limiting part in this game, so upgrading the GPU is more likely to deliver a larger FPS gain than upgrading the CPU.
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 Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U 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.
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 (31% below minimum). Expect performance issues. Low settings recommended.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with the Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U can run Delta Force smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 81 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 54% below the recommended specs, and your CPU is 340% 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 Delta Force, upgrading the GPU would usually give you the most noticeable improvement. In the Performance Limiter Analysis, the Radeon Ryzen 7 6800U is the side that most often caps the frame rate, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D still has additional headroom in the tested presets. The main bottleneck appears on the GPU side. The largest gap shows up at 4K Ultra, where the GPU reaches about 30 FPS while the CPU still has headroom up to roughly 133 FPS. Across all tested settings, the distribution is 12/12 GPU-limited, 0/12 CPU-limited, and 0/12 balanced.
Delta Force 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.
Delta Force requires at minimum a Core i3-4150 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 50 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-6500 and GeForce GTX 1060 5GB with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Delta Force 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.
