Performance Analysis: The Technomancer on Your System
The Technomancer, a 2016 Action RPG, can be a demanding title, but the combination of an Intel Core i3-12100F and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 delivers a wide range of performance depending on your resolution and settings. The data shows this pairing is capable of high frame rates, with the RTX 4080 doing the heavy lifting for visual fidelity. This analysis breaks down the measured performance, compares it to similar hardware, and explains what you can expect from this specific build.
Measured FPS Breakdown
The benchmark results for this combo provide a clear picture of its capabilities across the three most common gaming resolutions. The data shows a consistent pattern: frame rates scale down as resolution increases, but the RTX 4080 maintains very high performance even at 4K.
At 1920x1080, this system is exceptionally fast. With Low settings, the average FPS hits 247. Moving to Medium settings, the average is 225 FPS, with a minimum of 191 and a maximum of 259. High settings still produce an average of 195 FPS. Even at Ultra settings, the system maintains an average of 152 FPS. This means at 1080p, the game is not only playable but also takes full advantage of high-refresh-rate monitors, as every preset delivers well above the 60 FPS playable threshold.
Stepping up to 2560x1440, the performance remains excellent. Low settings yield an average of 195 FPS. Medium settings produce an average of 149 FPS, with a minimum of 127 and a maximum of 172. High settings average 128 FPS, and Ultra settings still deliver a strong 100 FPS average. This resolution is a sweet spot for this combo, as it offers a significant visual upgrade over 1080p while still providing high refresh rate performance on the most demanding presets.
At 3840x2160, the performance curve becomes more pronounced. Low settings average 107 FPS. Medium settings average 82 FPS, with a minimum of 70 and a maximum of 94. High settings average 70 FPS, which is still comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold. However, Ultra settings drop the average to 55 FPS, which falls below the playable threshold. This is the only preset at this resolution that fails to maintain a consistent 60 FPS, indicating that for 4K gaming, you will need to use High settings to ensure a smooth experience.
Similar Performance Alternatives
The benchmark database places this specific CPU and GPU pairing in a distinct performance tier. The Intel Core i3-12100F has an average benchmark score of 13,494, which places it in the 68th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals show it is a competitive performer. The Intel Core 3 N355 scores a nearly identical 13,492, a 0% difference. The Intel Core i5-9500 scores 13,452, which is 0.3% lower. The Intel Core 5 120UL scores 13,594, which is 0.7% higher, and the Intel Core i7-1250U scores 13,351, which is 1.1% lower. These numbers indicate that the i3-12100F's performance is very close to these other processors, making them direct alternatives in terms of raw CPU capability.
On the graphics side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 has an average benchmark score of 54,247, good for the 86th percentile of all GPUs. Its closest competitor is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, which scores 54,209, a 0.1% difference. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54,828, which is 1.1% higher. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55,698, which is 2.6% higher, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55,757, which is 2.7% higher. This data suggests that while the RTX 4080 is a high-end card, several other GPUs offer nearly identical performance, meaning a system with one of these alternatives would behave very similarly in The Technomancer.
CPU and GPU Roles
The benchmark data shows a clear division of labor between the CPU and GPU in this combo. The GPU is the dominant factor in determining frame rates, especially as resolution increases. The scaling between resolutions shows that the GPU's workload scales directly with the number of pixels. When moving from 1080p to 1440p, the average FPS at High settings drops from 195 to 128. This is a 34% decrease, which is a typical result of the GPU rendering more pixels. Similarly, moving from 1440p to 4K at High settings sees the average FPS drop from 128 to 70, a further 45% decrease.
The CPU's role is more apparent at lower resolutions and settings. At 1080p with Low settings, the game hits 247 FPS. This high frame rate suggests that the CPU, with its 4 cores and 8 threads, is able to feed the GPU enough data to reach this level. However, as the resolution increases, the GPU becomes the bottleneck. The fact that the Ultra preset at 4K drops to 55 FPS while High gives 70 FPS shows that the GPU's pixel-pushing power is the limiting factor at this resolution. The i3-12100F is not holding the system back at 4K; the RTX 4080 is simply running out of processing power to maintain higher frame rates with the most demanding settings. The data indicates that this CPU is sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the GPU at 1080p and 1440p, but the GPU is the primary driver of performance, a role that becomes more critical at 4K.
How This Combo Ranks
Within the database of tested hardware combinations, this pairing of the Intel Core i3-12100F and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 achieves a combo rank of 309 out of 3,696 tested combos. This places it in the top 8.4% of all systems tested. This high ranking is a direct result of the RTX 4080's powerful performance, which boosts the overall capability of the system despite the more modest CPU. The rank indicates that this is a high-performance combination, capable of running modern games at very high settings, even if the processor is not the most powerful available. The system's position in the top tier of the rankings shows that it is a very capable gaming machine for demanding titles.
