High-performance 1440p build

$1,800 budget · 1440p · Maximum performance · Gaming

  • Most of the CPU and GPU budget goes to the graphics card, which sets the frame rate at 1440p.
  • The motherboard was chosen for the features this build needs — a more expensive board would not have added performance.

How this number was derived

  • · Modelled from catalog performance scores — an estimate, not a measurement

Frame rates vary with drivers, memory speed, game version, background apps and in-game settings. Use these numbers to compare builds, not as a promise.

CPU vs GPU balance

Mostly GPU-limited

In Cyberpunk 2077 at these settings, the GPU side is the lower ceiling.

CPU≈ 244 FPS
GPUlimiter≈ 96 FPS

Scale up to 244 FPS · goal 60 FPS

Both sides clear your 60 FPS goal in this scenario.

This can change with the game, resolution, preset and ray tracing. Switch any setting above and both panels recalculate.
