What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon R9 280X back.
Processor needed for ~38 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~22 fps.
