Performance Summary
The Ryzen 5 5600X + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 24% and 96% and GPU utilization between 78% and 100%. Ryzen 5 5600X reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the primary limiter at high visual load. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 88% at 1080p to 94% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 74% to 51%.
Bottleneck Analysis
This profile is GPU-bound. At 1440p (2K QHD) High, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 98% usage (96-100%), while the Ryzen 5 5600X stays at 50% (39-62%), indicating the graphics pipeline is the limiting stage.
Resolution Scaling
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 74% and GPU 88%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 61% and GPU 95%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 51% and GPU 94%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
Optimal Settings Recommendation
1080p (Full HD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 62% (47-77%) and GPU 88% (81-96%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 5 5600X remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade Insight
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (Ryzen 5 5600X: 90% avg, GeForce RTX 4090: 98% avg). A targeted upgrade should follow your target resolution: GPU first for higher image quality, CPU first for higher minimum FPS.
