Runs on the incredibly optimized Evolution Engine. It can be heavy in open-world areas and CPU-limited in horde modes with many enemies, but generally runs well on a wide range of hardware.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 205 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 160 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 88 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 657% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1050) for Warframe. The EPYC 8324P is 639% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-4460).
The EPYC 8324P determines the performance ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GPU has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $5247. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 205 FPS, equivalent to 0.04 FPS per dollar.

At 1080p high, the EPYC 8324P sets the ceiling at about 252 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 484 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 48% (FPS gap: 232 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your EPYC 8324P 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 45% | CPU Limits GPU 46% | CPU Limits GPU 48% | CPU Limits GPU 48% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 32% | CPU Limits GPU 32% | CPU Limits GPU 35% | CPU Limits GPU 37% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 19% | CPU Limits GPU 22% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 24% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the EPYC 8324P paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Warframe smoothly up to 4k achieving around 88 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 657% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 639% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $5247 ($3598 CPU (Rank #301 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your EPYC 8324P 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 EPYC 9355P is a great upgrade option for around $2998 (Rank #287 for value) while costing less than your current CPU.
Your EPYC 8324P 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 Warframe performance right now. CPU fully utilized 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.
Warframe 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.
Warframe requires at minimum a Core i7-860 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 650 (GPU) with 4 GB RAM and 50 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-4460 and GeForce GTX 1050 with 8 GB RAM. Your EPYC 8324P and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Warframe 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.
