Unlike shooters, Naraka focuses on melee combat with fluid animations. The game is visually dense and supports DLSS, which is vital for high frame rates at resolutions above 1080p. An SSD is critical for map loading, and 16GB of RAM is recommended for smooth gameplay.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p high, the Core Ultra 9 285 sets the ceiling at about 246 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 371 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 34% (FPS gap: 125 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 11/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 1/12.
Your Core Ultra 9 285 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 23% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 34% | CPU Limits GPU 31% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 21% | CPU Limits GPU 23% | CPU Limits GPU 32% | CPU Limits GPU 30% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 6% | CPU Limits GPU 14% | CPU Limits GPU 12% |
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 9 285 paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Naraka: Bladepoint smoothly up to 4k achieving around 107 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 279% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 337% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $2199 ($550 CPU (Rank #171 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your Core Ultra 9 285 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 Threadripper 7970X is a great upgrade option for around $2499 (Rank #354 for value).
Your Core Ultra 9 285 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 Naraka: Bladepoint 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 ultra.
Yes! Naraka: Bladepoint supports DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen and AFMF, and your GeForce RTX 4090 is compatible with DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen. With Frame Generation enabled, you can expect a 2x-3x FPS multiplier on top of native framerates, significantly boosting perceived smoothness.
Naraka: Bladepoint requires at minimum a Core i5-4460 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 750 Ti (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-7700 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your Core Ultra 9 285 and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Naraka: Bladepoint 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.
