Every figure below is a measurement aggregated from published review charts — the CPU's frame-rate ceiling and the GPU's frame-rate ceiling in this game, combined. Settings: Ultra preset, native rendering, no upscaling, no frame generation. CPU ceiling measured at 1080p, Low preset (reviewers' CPU-isolation method), flagship GPU.
Strong GPU limit
Expected frame rate: 34–34 fps (measured range across sources).
The GPU side is lower by about 82.4%: the pair runs at the lower ceiling, and upgrading the other part alone would not raise it.
That range sits under a smooth 60 in this game at the tested preset — expect to trade settings for frame rate.
Confidence: MEDIUM — based on 2 source measurements for these two parts.
Strong GPU limit
Expected frame rate: 27–27 fps (measured range across sources).
The GPU side is lower by about 86.0%: the pair runs at the lower ceiling, and upgrading the other part alone would not raise it.
That range sits under a smooth 60 in this game at the tested preset — expect to trade settings for frame rate.
Confidence: MEDIUM — based on 2 source measurements for these two parts.
RTX 4060 Ti 8GB was not measured at 4K in this game — no verdict here, and we don't estimate one.
