How to improve · 2 pts to C

CPU/GPU balancecosting ~13 pts

CPU-limited — measured at the 1080p reference, a faster CPU would unlock about +43% from the GPU you've chosen (median 104 fps today). CPU: flagship, GPU: high-end.

Valuecosting ~7 pts

Biggest non-performance spend: case (+$155 over a solid baseline) — shifting that toward the GPU buys more frames.

Why these are estimates?

These numbers are model-predicted averages, not measured benchmarks of your specific system. Treat them as ballpark guidance, not a promise. Real framerate depends on:

Your full system (RAM speed, storage, drivers, OS, background load)
In-game scene complexity, multiplayer player count, mods
Driver updates and game patches after this estimate was made
Display, thermals, and how your case manages airflow

If you want a measured number for your specific build, the only reliable answer is to benchmark it yourself once you own the parts.

Balance

GPU-bound (40%)

Your GPU (estimated high-end) is limiting performance for 1440p gaming. The CPU (estimated flagship) is 2 tiers higher and has spare capacity your GPU isn't using. We don't have FPS data for either of these chips yet, so this is a spec-based estimate, not a measured verdict.
