Performance Summary
The Ryzen 5 3600 + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 25% and 90% and GPU utilization between 65% and 92%. Ryzen 5 3600 stays in a controlled operating range, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 83% at 1080p to 85% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 74% to 65%.
Load Interpretation
The utilization pattern is relatively even. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 88% average at its highest-load preset, while the Ryzen 5 3600 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.
Resolution Scaling
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 74% and GPU 83%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 60% and GPU 84%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 65% and GPU 85%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
Optimal Settings Recommendation
4K (Ultra HD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 68% (51-84%) and GPU 88% (86-90%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 5 3600 remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade Insight
Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the Ryzen 5 3600 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.
- High GPU Load: You typically want to see High GPU Utilization (90%+) and moderate CPU usage when visual settings are heavy. This indicates the graphics pipeline is under strong load, but the exact FPS limiter should still be confirmed by the FPS ceiling analysis.
- High CPU Load: If you see High CPU Utilization (85%+) paired with lower GPU utilization, the processor is handling a disproportionate share of frame preparation and game logic. That can point to CPU-side pressure, but it should not be treated as a direct replacement for FPS ceiling analysis.
- Low CPU and GPU Load: 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. It does not mean both parts are equally fast in FPS terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Throne and Liberty?
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1729 ($80 CPU (Rank #12 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). This is a well-balanced setup, meaning you're getting good value from both components without significant waste.
3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Throne and Liberty performance?
This setup is already well-balanced for Throne and Liberty. No significant bottleneck - CPU and GPU are well matched across all settings. Both the Ryzen 5 3600 and GeForce RTX 4090 complement each other effectively, so upgrading either component individually would yield diminishing returns. If you want more FPS, you'd benefit most from upgrading both CPU and GPU together.
4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Throne and Liberty?
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.
5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Throne and Liberty?
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 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 Throne and Liberty FPS estimates for the Ryzen 5 3600 and GeForce RTX 4090?
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.
