What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Arc B570 back.
Processor needed for ~137 fps: Core i7-10700K or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i5-8400): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 137.
