Built for massive sieges, this MMO creates a significant CPU bottleneck in large battles. 16GB of RAM is the minimum, setting a standard for next-gen MMOs.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 117 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 106 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 81 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 5090 is 189% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1660) for Throne and Liberty. The Core i9-11900F is 13% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The Core i9-11900F sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GeForce RTX 5090 still has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $3058.87. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 117 FPS, equivalent to 0.04 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 1080p low, the Core i9-11900F sets the ceiling at about 230 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 5090 could reach 342 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 33% (FPS gap: 112 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Core i9-11900F is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 5090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 33% | CPU Limits GPU 33% | CPU Limits GPU 29% | CPU Limits GPU 29% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 26% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 25% |
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 and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Core i9-11900F paired with the GeForce RTX 5090 can run Throne and Liberty smoothly up to 4k achieving around 81 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 189% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 13% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $3058.87 ($358.87 CPU + $2700 GPU). 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 #4 for value).
For Throne and Liberty, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Core i9-11900F is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 5090 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.
Throne and Liberty 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.
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 i9-11900F and GeForce RTX 5090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
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.
