Core i3-6300T

Modelled frame rate limit of 52 FPS. That is roughly the fastest this processor can feed a graphics card in a modern AAA title, no matter which card you fit.

Best match at each resolution

4K GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB 52

"Closest matched" means the two parts run out of headroom at about the same frame rate, so neither is obviously wasted. A faster card is still worth buying if you plan to raise the resolution later.

The cards it lands closest to

The 24 graphics cards whose frame rate limit sits nearest this processor's, fastest first. Anything faster than the top of this table is wasted on it at 1080p, and anything slower is a card it will never trouble. For any other combination, use the calculator.
