Performance Analysis: Downfall on Your System
Measured FPS Breakdown
The recorded data for Downfall with the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 shows a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest frame rates. Low settings produce an average of 226 FPS, while Medium settings drop to 185 FPS with a minimum of 157 FPS and a maximum of 213 FPS. High settings average 152 FPS, and Ultra settings remain well above the playable threshold at 95 FPS. None of the 1080p runs dip below 60 FPS, which makes this resolution the most comfortable for high-refresh-rate displays.
Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but shows the expected cost of additional pixels. Low settings average 162 FPS, Medium settings average 132 FPS with a minimum of 112 FPS and a maximum of 152 FPS, and High settings average 108 FPS. Ultra settings at 1440p average 68 FPS, which still clears the 60 FPS threshold but leaves less headroom for demanding scenes. The minimum FPS recorded at this resolution comes from the Medium preset at 112 FPS, indicating consistent frame delivery.
At 3840x2160, the RTX 4060 begins to show its limits. Low settings average 101 FPS, Medium settings average 82 FPS with a minimum of 70 FPS and a maximum of 95 FPS, and High settings average 68 FPS. Ultra settings at 4K drop to 42 FPS, which falls below the 60 FPS playable threshold. The gap between Medium and Ultra at 4K is substantial: 40 FPS on average. This suggests that the most demanding preset at 4K requires more graphics horsepower than this combo provides.
The pattern across all three resolutions is consistent: Low settings always deliver the highest averages, followed by Medium, then High, with Ultra being the most demanding. The minimum FPS values are only recorded for the Medium preset at each resolution, which is the only setting tier where min/max data was captured. At 1080p Medium, the minimum of 157 FPS shows excellent frame stability. At 1440p Medium, the minimum of 112 FPS remains smooth. At 4K Medium, the minimum of 70 FPS still stays above the 60 FPS playable threshold.
How This Combo Ranks
The database ranks this CPU and GPU pairing as 2009 out of 3716 tested combos for Downfall. This places the combination in the upper-middle portion of the tested hardware pool. A rank of 2009 out of 3716 means that roughly 54% of tested combos perform better and roughly 46% perform worse, based on the recorded data. This is a solid position for a mid-range pairing, especially given the game's release date and the hardware's age relative to the test pool.
The CPU alone sits at the 84th percentile against all CPUs in the database, which is a strong showing for the Ryzen 7 3700X. Its average benchmark score of 34260 places it very close to several modern rivals. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 scores 34222, a delta of 0.1% behind the 3700X. The AMD EPYC 4244P scores 34220, also 0.1% behind. The Intel Core i5-13450HX scores 34333, which is 0.2% ahead. The Intel Core Ultra 7 165H scores 34083, 0.5% behind. These deltas are all within half a percent, meaning the 3700X trades blows with much newer processors in synthetic benchmarks.
The GPU sits at the 61st percentile against all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17639. Its nearest rivals are interesting: the AMD Radeon HD 7790 scores 17666 (0.2% ahead), the AMD Radeon 780M scores 17588 (0.3% behind), the AMD Radeon Pro 560 scores 17551 (0.5% behind), and the AMD Radeon Pro 460 scores 17509 (0.7% behind). The RTX 4060's position here reflects its mid-range standing in the current GPU landscape, though its raw compute scores do not fully capture its modern feature set like ray tracing and DLSS support.
Combining the CPU's 84th percentile with the GPU's 61st percentile, the overall rank of 2009 out of 3716 makes sense. The CPU is a stronger component relative to the database than the GPU, but the pairing still delivers playable performance at most settings in Downfall.

The combination rank of 2009 out of 3716 would likely shift by only a few dozen positions depending on which rival parts you chose.
Best Settings per Resolution
At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is High settings, which averages 68 FPS. Medium settings average 82 FPS and Low settings average 101 FPS, but High delivers the best visual quality while still clearing the threshold. Ultra settings at 4K average 42 FPS and are not recommended.
At 2560x1440, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra settings, which averages 68 FPS. This is the same average as 4K High, which shows that the resolution drop from 4K to 1440p buys you a full tier of visual quality. High settings average 108 FPS, Medium averages 132 FPS, and Low averages 162 FPS, but Ultra is the best choice for image quality.
At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra settings, which averages 95 FPS. This is the only resolution where Ultra clears 60 FPS with substantial margin. Medium settings average 185 FPS, High averages 152 FPS, and Low averages 226 FPS. For 1080p, Ultra is the clear recommendation if you want maximum visual fidelity.
The Verdict
This PC can run Downfall, and it does so comfortably at most settings. The verdict by resolution is clear: at 3840x2160, the playable settings are High, Low, and Medium, with High being the best choice at 68 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all four settings are playable, and Ultra averages 68 FPS. At 1920x1080, all four settings are playable, and Ultra averages 95 FPS.
The 60 FPS threshold is cleared at 4K High, 4K Medium, and 4K Low, but not at 4K Ultra. At 1440p and 1080p, every preset clears 60 FPS, which means this combo has no trouble running the game at mainstream resolutions. The weakest point is 4K Ultra, which falls to 42 FPS, so players who want maximum settings at 4K should look for a stronger GPU. For everyone else, the Ryzen 7 3700X and RTX 4060 deliver smooth performance with room to spare.
The data indicates this is a well-balanced pairing for Downfall. The CPU's 84th percentile standing ensures it will not bottleneck the GPU in this title, and the GPU's 61st percentile standing is sufficient for the game's demands outside of 4K Ultra. If you own this hardware, you can expect a solid experience at 1080p and 1440p with maxed settings, and a good experience at 4K with High settings.
