Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 163 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 158 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 112 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 136% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2070) for ARC Raiders. The Core 7 240H is 40% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-9600K).
At lower resolutions (1080p (medium/high/ultra)), the Core 7 240H determines the performance ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1440p (low/medium), 4k (low/medium)), the GeForce RTX 4090 takes over as the primary performance factor. The system is well balanced at 1080p low, 1440p (high/ultra), 4k (high/ultra).
At 1080p ultra, the Core 7 240H sets the ceiling at about 165 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 193 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 15% (FPS gap: 28 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 4/12 cells, GPU limits 4/12, balanced 4/12.
Your Core 7 240H is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 10% | CPU Limits GPU 14% | CPU Limits GPU 15% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 12% | Balanced | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 15% | GPU Limits CPU 13% | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 7% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

The Core 7 240H + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 20% and 49% and GPU utilization between 62% and 100%. Core 7 240H keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the primary limiter at high visual load. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 82% at 1080p to 89% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 39% to 27%.
This profile is GPU-bound. At 4K (Ultra HD) Ultra, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 98% usage (95-100%), while the Core 7 240H stays at 28% (21-34%), indicating the graphics pipeline is the limiting stage.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 39% and GPU 82%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 38% and GPU 85%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 27% and GPU 89%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 38% (29-48%) and GPU 88% (82-93%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Core 7 240H remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 98% average load at 4K (Ultra HD) Ultra while the Core 7 240H still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.
Understanding Hardware Utilization & Bottlenecks: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. This is the key to identifying performance bottlenecks in any system.

Yes, the Core 7 240H paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run ARC Raiders smoothly up to 4k achieving around 112 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 136% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 40% above the recommended requirements.
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.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is already a top-tier graphics card. While it's technically the limiting factor here (which means you are fully utilizing your GPU's visual horsepower exactly as intended), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your ARC Raiders performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1440p low, 1440p medium, 4k low, 4k medium. CPU-limited at: 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra.
ARC Raiders 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.
ARC Raiders requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 35 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-9600K and GeForce RTX 2070 with 16 GB RAM. Your Core 7 240H and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These ARC Raiders 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.
