The GPU's percentileVsAllGpus is 88, and its average benchmark score is 53610. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, has a score of 53489, a 0.2% delta that puts the RTX 4080 SUPER slightly ahead. The data confirms that neither component is a weak link; both are high performers that contribute to the combo's top-tier ranking.

Settings Recommendations

For 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 resolutions, the measured data shows that the Ultra preset is entirely viable. At 1440p, Ultra delivers an average of 130.4 FPS, which is excellent for high-refresh-rate monitors. At 1080p, Ultra reaches 183.8 FPS. For these resolutions, Ultra is the recommended setting to maximize visual quality without sacrificing smoothness.

The situation changes at 3840x2160. The data shows that the Ultra preset yields an average of 87 FPS, which is playable but leaves little headroom for demanding scenes. The High preset at 4K, however, provides a much more comfortable 133.1 FPS. For a consistently smooth experience at 4K, the High preset is the recommended choice, as it offers a significant performance boost with a likely minor visual compromise. The Low and Medium presets at 4K, showing 218.9 and 155.7 FPS respectively, are viable for competitive play but sacrifice visual fidelity.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a clear picture of performance scaling across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo is exceptionally fast. The Low preset achieves an average of 475.5 FPS. Medium and High settings produce 342.8 and 284.5 FPS, respectively. Even the most demanding Ultra preset at this resolution maintains an average of 183.8 FPS, ensuring a smooth experience on any high-refresh monitor.

Moving to 2560x1440, performance remains very high. The Low preset posts an average of 345.5 FPS. Medium and High follow with 248.3 and 202.6 FPS. The Ultra preset still delivers a strong 130.4 FPS, making 1440p an excellent balance of fidelity and speed for this setup.

At 3840x2160, the data shows a clear curve. The Low preset is still fast at 218.9 FPS. Medium and High produce 155.7 and 133.1 FPS, respectively. The Ultra preset, however, drops to an average of 87 FPS. While this is still a playable frame rate, the substantial drop from High to Ultra—a difference of 46.1 FPS—highlights the significant GPU load increase at 4K with maxed settings.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER plays a central role in this combo's performance, particularly at higher resolutions. The GPU's 16 GB of GDDR6X memory is sufficient for the game's textures and assets at Ultra settings, as evidenced by the game's ability to run at 4K. The memory clock runs at 1438 MHz with a 23 Gbps effective speed, and the 256-bit bus width provides a bandwidth of 736.3 GB/s. This high bandwidth is crucial for feeding the GPU's 10240 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 112 ROPs, especially when rendering at 3840x2160.

The GPU's boost clock of 2550 MHz and base clock of 2295 MHz allow it to sustain high throughput. The data shows that the GPU is a significant factor in the frame rate differences between presets. The jump from High (133.1 FPS) to Ultra (87 FPS) at 4K is a large 46.1 FPS drop, indicating that the Ultra preset likely enables effects that heavily tax the GPU's compute capabilities. The GPU's performance, with a 3dmark_steel_nomad_dx12 score of 6600, places it in the 88th percentile of all GPUs, confirming its high-end status. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, has an average benchmark score of 53489, which the 4080 SUPER edges out by 0.2%.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-13700K is a powerful processor that ensures the GPU is not held back. With 16 cores (8 performance and 8 efficiency cores) and 24 threads, it has the multi-threading capacity for modern game engines and background tasks. The boost clock of 5.40 GHz and base clock of 3.40 GHz provide high single-thread performance, which is essential for game logic and physics. The CPU's benchmark scores confirm its strength, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 39000 and a single-core score of 5505.

In the context of this game, the CPU's role is to maintain high frame rates, especially at lower resolutions where the GPU load is less demanding. The data shows that at 1080p Low, the combo achieves 475.5 FPS, a number that is likely limited by the CPU's ability to issue draw calls and process game logic. The 30 MB of shared L3 cache and 2 MB per-core L2 cache help reduce memory latency. The CPU's performance, ranking in the 93rd percentile, means it is effectively a performance peer to the Intel Core i7-13700KF, which has a delta of -0.1% in average benchmark scores. This processing power ensures that the RTX 4080 SUPER's capabilities are fully utilized, making the CPU a non-bottlenecking partner in this high-performance combination.
