Verdict

CPU Limits GPU

Your Celeron 1007U is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.

Percentages show how much potential FPS of the stronger component is lost because the other component has a lower FPS ceiling.
🧠Methodology

We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.

Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.

CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.

A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

Performance Summary

The Celeron 1007U + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 80% and 88% and GPU utilization between 69% and 71%. Celeron 1007U reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 69% at 1080p to 70% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 85% to 84%.

Load Interpretation

From a utilization perspective, this is a CPU-heavy load profile. At 1080p (Full HD) Low, the Celeron 1007U reaches 87% average load (86-88%), while the GeForce RTX 4090 remains comparatively lower at 70% (69-71%). This points to heavier CPU-side frame preparation work, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.

Resolution Scaling

At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 85% and GPU 69%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 85% and GPU 70%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 84% and GPU 70%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.

Optimal Settings Recommendation

1440p (2K QHD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 84% (83-86%) and GPU 70% (69-70%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Celeron 1007U remains stable for consistent frame delivery.

Upgrade Insight

Upgrade priority should be the CPU. The Celeron 1007U reaches 87% average load at 1080p (Full HD) Low while the GeForce RTX 4090 remains comparatively underutilized, so a faster processor would improve frame-time consistency and top-end FPS.

Understanding Hardware Utilization: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. They describe hardware load, but they do not directly tell you which component sets the FPS ceiling.

Important: a CPU or GPU can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. Two processors can both show 40% usage and still deliver very different frame rates, depending on per-core speed, cache, engine threading, driver overhead, and frame preparation efficiency.

  • High GPU Load: You typically want to see High GPU Utilization (90%+) and moderate CPU usage when visual settings are heavy. This indicates the graphics pipeline is under strong load, but the exact FPS limiter should still be confirmed by the FPS ceiling analysis.
  • High CPU Load: If you see High CPU Utilization (85%+) paired with lower GPU utilization, the processor is handling a disproportionate share of frame preparation and game logic. That can point to CPU-side pressure, but it should not be treated as a direct replacement for FPS ceiling analysis.
  • Low CPU and GPU Load: If both CPU and GPU utilization are relatively low, it means the hardware is waiting on something else. This could be a game engine limitation, poorly optimized code, or an artificial framerate cap like VSync holding performance back. It does not mean both parts are equally fast in FPS terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Can the Celeron 1007U and GeForce RTX 4090 run Marvel Rivals well?

The Celeron 1007U and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Marvel Rivals at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 40 FPS which is classified as "playable". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.

2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Marvel Rivals?

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.

3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Marvel Rivals performance?

For Marvel Rivals, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Celeron 1007U is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 4090 has extra headroom that a faster processor could take advantage of. This is especially noticeable at 1080p where CPU performance matters more. CPU-limited at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.

4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Marvel Rivals?

Marvel Rivals 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.

5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Marvel Rivals?

Marvel Rivals requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10400 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.

6How accurate are these Marvel Rivals FPS estimates for the Celeron 1007U and GeForce RTX 4090?

These Marvel Rivals 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.
