Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 151 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 134 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 92 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 183% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1660) for Throne and Liberty. The Core Ultra 5 225T is 38% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
Throne and Liberty supports: AFMF. This game does not have native DLSS 3 or FSR 3 Frame Generation support. AFMF is AMD-exclusive and not compatible with GeForce RTX 4090.
At lower resolutions (1080p (medium/ultra)), the Core Ultra 5 225T sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1440p high), the GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p (low/high), 1440p (low/medium/ultra), all 4k settings.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1829. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 151 FPS, equivalent to 0.08 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p medium, the Core Ultra 5 225T sets the ceiling at about 234 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 251 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 7% (FPS gap: 17 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 2/12 cells, GPU limits 1/12, balanced 9/12. Confidence is low because both ceilings are very close in this cell.
The Core Ultra 5 225T and GeForce RTX 4090 stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 7% | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 7% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 6% | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
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.

Yes, the Core Ultra 5 225T paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Throne and Liberty smoothly up to 4k achieving around 92 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 183% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 38% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1829 ($180 CPU (Rank #62 Value) + $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 Throne and Liberty, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Core Ultra 5 225T 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 medium, 1080p ultra. GPU fully utilized at: 1440p high.
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.
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 Ultra 5 225T and GeForce RTX 4090 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.
