Throne and Liberty
Built for massive sieges, this MMO creates a significant CPU bottleneck in large battles. 16GB of RAM is the minimum, setting a standard for next-gen MMOs.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 29 to 63 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 23 to 46 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 16 to 29 FPS.
The RTX A500 Embedded GPU is 54% below recommended, but 1% above minimum for Throne and Liberty. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 76% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The RTX A500 Embedded GPU sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom.
This chart answers a simple question: which upgrade is more likely to increase FPS first? In this case, the answer is clearly the GPU.
The largest gap appears at 4K Ultra, where the RTX A500 Embedded GPU reaches about 15 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has headroom up to roughly 118 FPS.
That means the RTX A500 Embedded GPU is hitting its performance ceiling first, leaving a 87% gap versus the Ryzen 7 7800X3D's available headroom in the most unbalanced scenario. Across all tested settings, this pairing is GPU-limited in 12 out of 12 cases, with 0 CPU-limited and 0 balanced results.
Overall, this is a clearly GPU-bound combination in this game.
The RTX A500 Embedded GPU is consistently the limiting part in this game, so upgrading the GPU is more likely to deliver a larger FPS gain than upgrading the CPU.
This chart shows which upgrade is more likely to unlock more FPS in each tested setting. The lower line represents the part that reaches its limit first. When the CPU and GPU lines stay close together, the system is more balanced. When the gap widens, one component is more clearly holding the other back. Hover any setting to inspect it.
The lower line is the current limiter. The closer the two lines are, the more balanced the CPU and GPU are for this game.
Each line represents an estimated FPS ceiling for one component, rather than live usage alone.
To estimate the CPU ceiling, we pair the Ryzen 7 7800X3D with GeForce RTX 5090, our current GPU anchor. To estimate the GPU ceiling, we pair the RTX A500 Embedded GPU with Ryzen 9 9950X3D, our current CPU anchor.
The lower line indicates the current limiter, since that component reaches its FPS ceiling first. In most scenarios, that is also the part most likely to deliver the bigger performance uplift if upgraded first.
The percentage shown represents the gap between the two ceilings. In practical terms, it shows how much of the stronger component's potential is left unused because the weaker one becomes the bottleneck first.
See how your processor and graphics card compare against the game official minimum and recommended system specs. The placement of your hardware is calculated using relative synthetic performance scores to help you gauge overall playability.
Your CPU is 76% below recommended and your GPU is 54% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D and RTX A500 Embedded GPU will struggle to run Throne and Liberty at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 29 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
Price data is not currently available for this combination. In general, look for setups where the CPU and GPU are balanced - this ensures you're not overspending on one component that the other can't keep up with.
For Throne and Liberty, upgrading the GPU would usually give you the most noticeable improvement. In the Performance Limiter Analysis, the RTX A500 Embedded GPU is the side that most often caps the frame rate, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional headroom in the tested presets. The main bottleneck appears on the GPU side. The largest gap shows up at 4K Ultra, where the GPU reaches about 15 FPS while the CPU still has headroom up to roughly 118 FPS. Across all tested settings, the distribution is 12/12 GPU-limited, 0/12 CPU-limited, and 0/12 balanced.
Throne and Liberty does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Throne and Liberty requires at minimum a Core i5-7700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 16 GB RAM and 63 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-11600K and GeForce GTX 1660 with 16 GB RAM. Your setup meets the minimum requirements but falls short of the recommended specs. You may need to lower some settings for smooth performance.
These Throne and Liberty FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
