GPU Role

The RX 6750 XT provides a large 12 GB frame buffer using GDDR6 memory and a 192-bit interface. That memory bandwidth of 432.0 GB/s is ample for the 2016-era The Technomancer, particularly given the highest resolution tested is 3840x2160. The GPU is rated at a boost clock of 2600 MHz, a game clock of 2495 MHz, and a base clock of 2150 MHz, all on the RDNA 2.0 architecture (Navi 22) with a 250 W TDP.

In the measured data, the GPU's throughput scales predictably with resolution and preset. At 1920x1080 the average frame rate goes from 179 FPS at Low to 92 FPS at Ultra. The 1080 line incurs a smaller drop when moving to 2560x1440, where Low still achieves 117 FPS and Ultra reaches exactly 60. The 4K results show a more punishing scaling: Low returns 64 FPS, while High drops to 42 and Ultra to 33. This distribution indicates that the RX 6750 XT can handle the game smoothly at 1080p and 1440p, with only 4K Ultra falling below the typical playable frame rate.

The GPU's synthetic benchmark average is 26011, which places it in the 71st percentile of all GPUs observed. Nearest rival listings show it generally sits within 1.1% of, yet slightly above, several 2018-2020 desktop and mobile cards, including the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile (deltaPct 1.1%). For this game, the high VRAM capacity is never a limiting factor; the bottleneck at 4K appears to be raw render throughput rather than memory size.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 7 5800X3D has 8 cores and 16 threads with a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 4.50 GHz. The architecture is Zen 3 on a 7 nm production process, and it includes an unusually large 96 MB shared L3 cache. The CPU sits in the 80th percentile of all tested desktops, with an average benchmark score of 2896.

Looking at its composable scores for this game, the high single-thread capabilities are useful for The Technomancer, an Action RPG originally released in 2016. A Geekbench single-core score of 2017 and a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 4552, as well as 3dMark single_thread at 884, contribute to the measured frame rate ceiling. The multi-thread side is equally capable, with Cinebench R23 multi of 14317 and a PassMark multithread score of 28309. However, the measured FPS at 1080p Low is 179, which is close to a common display refresh, indicating that in low-load scenes the game can be predominantly CPU-bound.

In the nearestRivals list, the 5800X3D is essentially neck-and-neck with the Ryzen 7 6800U (delta Pct 0%), the Core i9-10900K (0.1%), and the Ryzen AI 5 PRO 340 (negative 0.1% meaning the 5800X3D is slightly ahead). The largest delta is the i5-12600KF at 0.3%. Given these numbers, none of the differences are large enough to shift the gaming experience dramatically; the scheduler interactions with the game's engine and the GPU's frame output dictate the final frame rate.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The table below lists the full set of measured results for this combination across three resolutions and four settings. Min/max values were only recorded for the Medium preset at each resolution, so those fields are empty for other presets.

|------------|----------|---------|---------|---------|

| 3840x2160 | High | 42 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Low | 64 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Medium | 49 | 42 | 57 |

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 33 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | High | 77 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Low | 117 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Medium | 90 | 76 | 103 |

| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 60 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | High | 117 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Low | 179 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 92 | - | - |

At 1080p, the lowest preset reaches 158% of the 60 FPC baseline. The Medium preset at 1080p has an average of 138 FPS, with a measured min of 117 and max of 158. This indicates that even during the heaviest scenes the frame rate stays six. At 2560x1440, the Medium preset averages 90 with a min of 76, and the frame rate does not fall below 60 FPS at Maximizing; the Ultra preset averages exactly 60 FPS. The 1440p High preset is at 77. The 3840x2160 results show a different picture: the Medium preset has a min of 42 and a max of 57, while Low averages 64. The 4K Ultra 33 FPS is the only result below 40, and it is still the only manually recorded preset under the 60 FPS boundary.

The data shows a scaling trend from 1080p to 1440p, and then another drop when reaching 2160p. The step from 1440p Ultra (60) to 1080p (92) is a 53% increase, while the step from 1440p Medium (90) to 1080p Medium (138) is a 53% increase again. The contrast between 2160p and 1440p is sharper: Low 113 to 64 (up 53 FPS), Medium 119 to 138, etc. These numbers confirm that the RX 6750 XT has enough performance for a 1440p-capable setup, and 108p/60 is a strong fit.

How This Combo Ranks

Within the full set of tested combinations for The Incomer, this pairing is left at default st/no quality? The raw combination rank is 1698 out of 3696 total combinations, placing it at just past the middle of the field. For context, the CPU alone sits in the 80th percentile of all CPUs and the GPU in the 71st percentile of all GPUs. The reason this rank is lower than the individual percentiles might suggest—38th vs 1698th (i.e., rank is poorer than about 46% of combos)—that the game is heavily dependent on the thanks to the combination; not all CPUs and GPUs in the population have a balanced composition that drives the strongest frame rates.

Quantitatively, the rank of 1698 in a pool of 3696 means a) there are 1697 tested combos with better than The Technomancer FPS and b) 1999 combos are worse. This is consistent with the mid-list position of the current hardware setup. The CPU has a higher absolute ranking than the GPU, but the game's performance at 1440p and 4K is still within the GPU-limited range.

The measured fps data at 1080p High (92) is above the 90th percentile of the combo distribution? Not necessarily, but the rank is what it is. The combo also shows that setting the console quality is not productive beyond 1440p Ultra, because the CPU can provide the frame headroom but the GPU saturates first.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the optimal preset depends on the target resolution and refresh rate.

At 1920x1080, the default Ultra preset still delivers 92 FPS. For a 144Hz monitor, the Medium preset at 138 FPS (with min 117) is the best fit, while High at 117 also falls above the 60 FPS threshold. If the player wants the absolute highest frame count, the Low preset with a 179 average is the one that highlights the CPU's headroom.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra setting yields a 60.0 average, which is exactly on a 60 Hz panel. When pursuing a higher refresh rate, 1440p Medium delivers 90 FPS with a min of 76, making it the preferred choice for 75–100 Hz displays. The High preset cuts the average to 77—it is a compact middle ground, but loses to Medium in margin.

At 3840x2160, only the Low preset, with a 64 average, delivers above 60 FPS. The Medium preset average of 49 is still far below the 60 FPS threshold. Therefore, for a smooth 4K experience the Low preset is recommended. If visual fidelity is prioritized over fluidity, the Medium at 49 might be the Ultra at 33 is a trade-off; the Ultra average of 33 is unlikely what the most users expect from a playable battlefield. Given the gap between Low and Medium at 4K (a 15 FPS spread), most gamers on a 60 Hz 4K display will be forced to run Low or Medium.

The lack of min/max except for the Medium preset suggests that recorded average are generally indicative of steady frame times. The 1080p Medium has its 158 FPS f68. The absence of min for other presets demonstrates a limit on the measurement data: only Medium get exposed both at the low and high side of the frame spectrum.

Overall, the recommended preset hierarchy is: use 1080p Medium (196 or higher), 1440p Medium (90 for high refresh), 1440p Ultra (60 for 60Hz), and 4K Low (64) or Medium (49) if visual quality is acceptable. The data indicates that the sweet spot for most users is the 2560x1440 Medium preset, which balances the 76–103 FPS range and minimizes the need to also adjust CPU, both of which are well within their measured performance envelopes.
