This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p medium, the Core i5-5675R sets the ceiling at about 81 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 306 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 74% (FPS gap: 225 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Core i5-5675R 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) | CPU Limits GPU 73% | CPU Limits GPU 74% | CPU Limits GPU 74% | CPU Limits GPU 73% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 51% | CPU Limits GPU 52% | CPU Limits GPU 54% | CPU Limits GPU 56% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 48% | CPU Limits GPU 50% | CPU Limits GPU 52% | CPU Limits GPU 54% |
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.

The Core i5-5675R + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 2% and 22% and GPU utilization between 0% and 16%. Core i5-5675R keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 6% at 1080p to 5% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 14% to 14%.
Neither component is close to saturation: CPU tops out at 22% and GPU at 16%. This pattern suggests possible engine-side limits, an FPS cap, or workload constraints unrelated to raw hardware throughput. It also shows why low utilization does not automatically mean there is no FPS limiter.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 14% and GPU 6%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 14% and GPU 5%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 14% and GPU 5%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.
1080p (Full HD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 6% (3-9%) and GPU 10% (3-16%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Core i5-5675R remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the Core i5-5675R and GeForce RTX 4090 remain reasonably matched for this title.
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.

Yes, the Core i5-5675R paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Among Us smoothly up to 4k achieving around 90 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 2070% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 58% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $2041 ($392 CPU + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).
For Among Us, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Core i5-5675R 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.
Among Us 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.
Among Us requires at minimum a Core i3-4330 (CPU) and GeForce GT 610 (GPU) with 1 GB RAM and 250 MB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i3-4330 and GeForce GTX 650 with 4 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 Among Us 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.
