This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k medium, the Processor U300 sets the ceiling at about 9 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 164 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 95% (FPS gap: 155 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Processor U300 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 85% | CPU Limits GPU 87% | CPU Limits GPU 92% | CPU Limits GPU 93% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 83% | CPU Limits GPU 87% | CPU Limits GPU 91% | CPU Limits GPU 93% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 92% | CPU Limits GPU 95% | CPU Limits GPU 94% | CPU Limits GPU 95% |
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.

The Processor U300 + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 44% and 93% and GPU utilization between 65% and 100%. Processor U300 stays in a controlled operating range, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 92% at 1080p to 92% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 77% to 72%.
The utilization pattern is relatively even. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 97% average at its highest-load preset, while the Processor U300 peaks at 80% average. This suggests a fairly controlled load distribution, but the actual FPS-limiting side should still be read from the limiter analysis above.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 77% and GPU 92%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 68% and GPU 93%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 72% and GPU 92%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.
1440p (2K QHD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 74% (68-81%) and GPU 82% (69-96%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Processor U300 remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the Processor U300 and GeForce RTX 4090 remain reasonably matched for this title.
Understanding Hardware Utilization: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. They describe hardware load, but they do not directly tell you which component sets the FPS ceiling.
Important: a CPU or GPU can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. Two processors can both show 40% usage and still deliver very different frame rates, depending on per-core speed, cache, engine threading, driver overhead, and frame preparation efficiency.

The Processor U300 and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Throne and Liberty at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 11 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1829 ($180 CPU + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 7845HX is a great upgrade option (Rank #1 for value).
For Throne and Liberty, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Processor U300 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.
Throne and Liberty 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.
Throne and Liberty requires at minimum a Core i5-7700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 16 GB RAM and 63 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-11600K and GeForce GTX 1660 with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Throne and Liberty 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.
