Percentages show how much potential FPS of the stronger component is lost because the other component has a lower FPS ceiling.
🧠Methodology

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.

Performance Summary

The EPYC 9015 + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 14% and 36% and GPU utilization between 17% and 72%. EPYC 9015 keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 26% at 1080p to 62% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 28% to 29%.

Bottleneck Analysis

The utilization pattern is relatively balanced. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 62% average at its highest-load preset, while the EPYC 9015 peaks at 32% average, with no single component consistently acting as a hard bottleneck.

Resolution Scaling

At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 28% and GPU 26%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 28% and GPU 43%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 29% and GPU 62%. This shows that GPU demand scales sharply with resolution while CPU load remains comparatively stable.

Optimal Settings Recommendation

4K (Ultra HD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 32% (28-36%) and GPU 62% (53-72%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while EPYC 9015 remains stable for consistent frame delivery.

Upgrade Insight

Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the EPYC 9015 and GeForce RTX 4090 remain reasonably matched for this title.

Understanding Hardware Utilization & Bottlenecks: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. This is the key to identifying performance bottlenecks in any system.

  • The Ideal Scenario (GPU Bottleneck): You typically want to see High GPU Utilization (90%+) and moderate CPU usage. This indicates your system is successfully pushing out graphics as fast as it can, without being held back by the CPU.
  • CPU Bottleneck: If you see High CPU Utilization (85%+) paired with lower GPU utilization, the CPU is struggling to compute game logic and prepare frames fast enough. The GPU sits waiting, often resulting in stuttering, inconsistent frame times, and lower overall FPS.
  • Engine Limits or Capped FPS: If both CPU and GPU utilization are relatively low, it means the hardware is waiting on something else. This could be a game engine limitation, poorly optimized code, or an artificial framerate cap like VSync holding performance back.

Frequently Asked Questions

1Can the EPYC 9015 and GeForce RTX 4090 run Genshin Impact well?

Yes, the EPYC 9015 paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Genshin Impact smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 62 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 279% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 11% below the recommended requirements.

2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Genshin Impact?

Price data is not currently available for this combination. In general, look for setups where the CPU and GPU are balanced — this ensures you're not overspending on one component that the other can't keep up with.

3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Genshin Impact performance?

For Genshin Impact, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The EPYC 9015 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 low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.

4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Genshin Impact?

Genshin Impact 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.

5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Genshin Impact?

Genshin Impact requires at minimum a Core i5 (CPU) and GeForce GT 1030 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 100 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your setup meets the minimum requirements but falls short of the recommended specs. You may need to lower some settings for smooth performance.

6How accurate are these Genshin Impact FPS estimates for the EPYC 9015 and GeForce RTX 4090?

These Genshin Impact 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.
