This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p low, the GeForce RTX 4090 sets the ceiling at about 510 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7700X has headroom up to 578 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 12% (FPS gap: 68 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 4/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 8/12.
The Ryzen 7 7700X and GeForce RTX 4090 stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 12% | GPU Limits CPU 11% | GPU Limits CPU 12% | GPU Limits CPU 7% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
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 Ryzen 7 7700X + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 26% and 61% and GPU utilization between 81% and 96%. Ryzen 7 7700X keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 84% at 1080p to 94% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 53% to 36%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) Low, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 95% usage (94-96%), while the Ryzen 7 7700X stays at 51% (43-59%). This shows the graphics pipeline is carrying most of the workload, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 53% and GPU 84%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 51% and GPU 95%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 36% and GPU 94%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 52% (45-59%) and GPU 84% (82-86%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7700X remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 95% average load at 1440p (2K QHD) Low while the Ryzen 7 7700X still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.
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.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7700X paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Marvel Rivals smoothly up to 4k achieving around 128 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 131% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 63% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1898 ($249 CPU (Rank #76 Value) + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Your GeForce RTX 4090 provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end card with a significantly better value rating.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is already a top-tier graphics card. While it's technically the limiting factor here (which means you are fully utilizing your GPU's visual horsepower exactly as intended), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Marvel Rivals performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra.
Yes! Marvel Rivals supports DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen and AFMF, and your GeForce RTX 4090 is compatible with DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen. With Frame Generation enabled, you can expect a 2x-3x FPS multiplier on top of native framerates, significantly boosting perceived smoothness.
Marvel Rivals requires at minimum a Core i5-6600K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-10400 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7700X and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Marvel Rivals 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.
