This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p medium, the Radeon RX 9070 XT sets the ceiling at about 230 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 462 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 50% (FPS gap: 232 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Radeon RX 9070 XT is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 38% | GPU Limits CPU 50% | GPU Limits CPU 47% | GPU Limits CPU 43% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 32% | GPU Limits CPU 44% | GPU Limits CPU 47% | GPU Limits CPU 48% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 23% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 37% | GPU Limits CPU 37% |
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 7800X3D + Radeon RX 9070 XT pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 14% and 80% and GPU utilization between 71% and 100%. Ryzen 7 7800X3D keeps significant headroom across presets, while Radeon RX 9070 XT carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 85% at 1080p to 95% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 54% to 30%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) Medium, the Radeon RX 9070 XT averages 97% usage (94-100%), while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stays at 30% (14-47%). 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 54% and GPU 85%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 44% and GPU 95%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 30% and GPU 95%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
1080p (Full HD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 53% (28-78%) and GPU 87% (79-95%), which keeps Radeon RX 9070 XT well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 7800X3D remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The Radeon RX 9070 XT reaches 97% average load at 4K (Ultra HD) Medium while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D 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 7800X3D paired with the Radeon RX 9070 XT can run Marvel Rivals smoothly up to 4k achieving around 74 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 63% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 57% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1084 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $700 GPU (Rank #64 Value)). Your Radeon RX 9070 XT 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. For example, upgrading to the GeForce RTX 4080 for around $1199 (Rank #61 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
Your Radeon RX 9070 XT 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 low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Marvel Rivals 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.
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 7800X3D and Radeon RX 9070 XT 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.
