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

CPU-bound (33%)

Your CPU (MID) is limiting performance for 1440p gaming. The GPU (HIGH) is 1 tier higher and has headroom your CPU isn't feeding.

Compatibility

All checks pass

Power

PSU Excellent · 406W draw / 850W

Physical fit

GPU + cooler clear the case
