Genshin Impact
Optimized for mobile roots, the PC version offers higher resolution textures and volumetric shadows while keeping minimum specs low. It is light on the CPU but requires a dedicated GPU for stable 1080p/60FPS gameplay.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 60 FPS
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 244 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 100 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 91 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 5090 is 286% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Genshin Impact. The Core i5-1350P is 45% below recommended, but 42% above minimum.
No major FPS-ceiling mismatch detected. The GeForce RTX 5090 and Core i5-1350P stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across the tested resolutions and quality settings.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $2950. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 244 FPS, equivalent to 0.08 FPS per dollar.

This chart answers a simple question: which upgrade is more likely to increase FPS first? In this case, there is no clear winner.
The largest gap still appears at 1080p Low, where the Core i5-1350P reaches about 273 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 5090 still has headroom up to roughly 310 FPS.
That means neither part is consistently hitting its ceiling far ahead of the other. Across all tested settings, this pairing is GPU-limited in 0 out of 12 cases, CPU-limited in 4, and balanced in 8.
Overall, this is a balanced combination in this game.
Neither the Core i5-1350P nor the GeForce RTX 5090 stands out as the consistent limiter in this game, so the better upgrade depends more on your target settings than on one obvious bottleneck.
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 Core i5-1350P with GeForce RTX 5090, our current GPU anchor. To estimate the GPU ceiling, we pair the GeForce RTX 5090 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 45% below recommended and your GPU is 286% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

Yes, the Core i5-1350P paired with the GeForce RTX 5090 can run Genshin Impact smoothly up to 4k achieving around 91 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 286% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 45% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $2,950 ($250 CPU + $2,700 GPU). This is a well-balanced setup, meaning you're getting good value from both components without significant waste.
This setup is already well-balanced for Genshin Impact. In the Performance Limiter Analysis, neither side consistently defines the maximum FPS across the tested presets. Across all tested settings, the distribution is 0/12 GPU-limited, 4/12 CPU-limited, and 8/12 balanced. In practice, this pairing behaves as a well-balanced combination in this game. Because of that, upgrading only one component would usually bring smaller gains than improving the overall pairing.
Genshin Impact 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.
Genshin Impact requires at minimum a Core i5 (CPU) and GeForce GT 1030 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 100 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7 and GeForce GTX 1060 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 Genshin Impact 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.
