Performance Summary
The EPYC 7303P + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 30% and 93% and GPU utilization between 51% and 100%. EPYC 7303P reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 76% at 1080p to 92% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 74% to 54%.
Load Interpretation
From a utilization perspective, this is a CPU-heavy load profile. At 1080p (Full HD) Low, the EPYC 7303P reaches 87% average load (81-93%), while the GeForce RTX 4090 remains comparatively lower at 65% (51-79%). This points to heavier CPU-side frame preparation work, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
Resolution Scaling
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 74% and GPU 76%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 64% and GPU 93%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 54% and GPU 92%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
Optimal Settings Recommendation
1080p (Full HD) High is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 66% (49-82%) and GPU 80% (66-94%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while EPYC 7303P remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade Insight
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (EPYC 7303P: 87% avg, GeForce RTX 4090: 98% avg). A targeted upgrade should follow your target resolution: GPU first for higher image quality, CPU first for higher minimum FPS.
