The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.

This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3050. There is 12% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.

DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling

Upscaling renders Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 3050 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.

ResolutionNativeDLSS QualityDLSS Performance
1080p486070
1440p324353
4K142026

About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3050 does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.

Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.

Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?

These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.

Here the graphics card is the brake: the RTX 3050 is what caps the frame rate in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. A faster processor would hardly change the result.

Frequently asked questions about Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War on the RTX 3050

How many FPS does the RTX 3050 get in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War at 1080p?
The RTX 3050 averages 48 FPS in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War at 1080p on Ultra settings. Dropping to High takes it to around 62 FPS, and Low reaches roughly 106 FPS.
What about 1440p and 4K?
On Ultra, the RTX 3050 manages around 32 FPS at 1440p and around 14 FPS at 4K. Those are native figures: switching on AI upscaling lifts both considerably.
Can the RTX 3050 run Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War at 60 FPS?
Not on Ultra — it averages below 60 FPS at every resolution. Dropping to Low at 1080p gets the RTX 3050 to about 106 FPS in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and AI upscaling helps close the gap to 60.
Do these Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War figures include upscaling or ray tracing?
No. Every FPS figure on this page is native, with no DLSS, FSR or XeSS, and with ray tracing off. The RTX 3050 can do both: upscaling pushes the frame rate up, ray tracing pulls it down.
How many FPS do I gain by turning on DLSS in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War?
At 4K, DLSS on Quality mode takes the RTX 3050 from around 14 native FPS to an estimated 20 FPS. Performance mode goes higher still, at the cost of some image sharpness.
What processor do I need to pair with the RTX 3050?
The figures on this page assume a Intel Core i5-13400, a mid-range processor that does not bottleneck the card. What matters with the RTX 3050 is that the CPU is not far below it: past that class, moving up a processor barely changes FPS at higher resolutions.
