Being turn-based, extreme FPS is less critical here. The game features high-fidelity models and uses considerable storage for audio and cutscenes. 8GB of RAM is recommended for smooth operation.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 60 FPS
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 108 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 98 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 73 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 279% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1060) for Honkai: Star Rail. The Ryzen 7 5700X is 23% above the recommended CPU (Core i7).
Honkai: Star Rail supports: AFMF. This game does not have native DLSS 3 or FSR 3 Frame Generation support. AFMF is AMD-exclusive and not compatible with GeForce RTX 4090.
At lower resolutions (1440p ultra, all 4k settings), the Ryzen 7 5700X sets the FPS ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1080p high), the GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the FPS-limiting side. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p (low/medium/ultra), 1440p (low/medium/high).
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1824. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 108 FPS, equivalent to 0.06 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k medium, the Ryzen 7 5700X sets the ceiling at about 106 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 141 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 25% (FPS gap: 35 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 5/12 cells, GPU limits 1/12, balanced 6/12.
Your Ryzen 7 5700X 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) | Balanced | Balanced | GPU Limits CPU 8% | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | CPU Limits GPU 8% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 21% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 17% | CPU Limits GPU 22% |
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 Ryzen 7 5700X paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Honkai: Star Rail smoothly up to 4k achieving around 73 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 279% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 23% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1824 ($175 CPU (Rank #58 Value) + $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 9950X is a great upgrade option for around $649 (Rank #5 for value).
For Honkai: Star Rail, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 7 5700X 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: 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p high.
Honkai: Star Rail currently only supports AFMF (AMD Fluid Motion Frames) for frame generation, which is an AMD-exclusive technology. Because you are using an NVIDIA GPU, you cannot use Frame Generation for this specific game. However, the game does support DLSS Upscaling, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.
Honkai: Star Rail requires at minimum a Core i3 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 650 (GPU) with 6 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7 and GeForce GTX 1060 with 8 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 5700X and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Honkai: Star Rail 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.
