Huge attacks will get your system usage to 100% so a 'software' may become useless.
exactly, if the attack exceeds a certain amount of packets per second your firewall will just crash, even a dedicated firewall has its limits. But what's even worse is that the connections flood your pipe (most servers are connected at 100mbit or 1gbit) nothing will help, since the traffic won't even reach your firewall... (and no, upgradinng to 10gbit will not help you with this)
Best way to do all this(properly) is with a hardware firewall(luck with that)

not really, a hardware firewall is not ideal to protect from DDoS attacks, depending on which model it can help against other threats, but certainly not DDoS attacks, the only thing that can actually work is a scrubbing proxy service (blacklotus, ethproxy, etc...)
