Performance Limiter Analysis

Core i5-14600KF|GeForce RTX 4090

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.

📈Analysis

At 1080p ultra, the Core i5-14600KF sets the ceiling at about 128 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 160 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 20% (FPS gap: 32 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.

Verdict

CPU Limits GPU

Your Core i5-14600KF 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Can the Core i5-14600KF and GeForce RTX 4090 run Throne and Liberty well?

Yes, the Core i5-14600KF paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Throne and Liberty smoothly up to 4k achieving around 76 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 183% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 98% above the recommended requirements.

2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Throne and Liberty?

This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1888 ($239 CPU (Rank #40 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your Core i5-14600KF provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end processor with a significantly better value rating. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).

3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Throne and Liberty performance?

Your Core i5-14600KF is already an incredibly powerful processor. While it's technically the first component to hit its limit (which is completely normal in state-of-the-art builds), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Throne and Liberty performance right now. CPU fully utilized at: 1080p high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra.

4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Throne and Liberty?

Throne and Liberty currently only supports AFMF (AMD Fluid Motion Frames) for frame generation, which is an AMD-exclusive technology. Because you are using an NVIDIA GPU, you cannot use Frame Generation for this specific game. However, the game does support DLSS Upscaling and FSR Upscaling and XeSS, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.

5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Throne and Liberty?

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 Core i5-14600KF and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.

6How accurate are these Throne and Liberty FPS estimates for the Core i5-14600KF and GeForce RTX 4090?

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.
