A Valve classic that depends heavily on single-thread clock speed. It runs well on older hardware but benefits from a fast CPU.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 84 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 73 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 53 to 82 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 13367% above the recommended GPU (GeForce 8600 GT) for Team Fortress 2. The MediaTek Kompanio 1300T is 88% above the recommended CPU (Core 2 Duo).
At lower resolutions (all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, 4k low), the MediaTek Kompanio 1300T sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (4k ultra), the GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 4k (medium/high).
This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p low, the MediaTek Kompanio 1300T sets the ceiling at about 103 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 237 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 57% (FPS gap: 134 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 9/12 cells, GPU limits 1/12, balanced 2/12.
Your MediaTek Kompanio 1300T 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 57% | CPU Limits GPU 46% | CPU Limits GPU 40% | CPU Limits GPU 27% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 44% | CPU Limits GPU 35% | CPU Limits GPU 28% | CPU Limits GPU 13% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 18% | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 25% |
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 MediaTek Kompanio 1300T paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Team Fortress 2 smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 73 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 13367% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 88% above the recommended requirements.
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.
For Team Fortress 2, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The MediaTek Kompanio 1300T 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. GPU fully utilized at: 4k ultra.
Team Fortress 2 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.
Team Fortress 2 requires at minimum a Pentium 4 (3.0 GHz) (CPU) and GeForce 6 series (GPU) with 1 GB RAM and 15 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core 2 Duo and GeForce 8600 GT with 2 GB RAM. Your MediaTek Kompanio 1300T and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Team Fortress 2 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.
