This 'Pokémon with guns' survival game runs on Unreal Engine. It is CPU-heavy due to AI simulation for the many creatures. Memory leaks can occur in long sessions, making 16GB of RAM a practical minimum.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 193 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 173 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 97 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 136% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2070) for Palworld. The Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G is 10% below recommended, but 162% above minimum.
Palworld 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.
The GeForce RTX 4090 sets the FPS ceiling at 1080p low, all 1440p settings, 4k (low/medium/high), while the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G still has additional frame-generation headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p (medium/high/ultra), 4k ultra.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1789. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 193 FPS, equivalent to 0.11 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1440p low, the GeForce RTX 4090 sets the ceiling at about 209 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G has headroom up to 246 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 15% (FPS gap: 37 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 8/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 4/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 7% | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 15% | GPU Limits CPU 11% | GPU Limits CPU 14% | GPU Limits CPU 13% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 13% | GPU Limits CPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 9% | 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.
See how your processor and graphics card compare against the game official minimum and recommended system specs. The placement of your hardware is calculated using relative synthetic performance scores to help you gauge overall playability.
Your CPU is 10% below recommended and your GPU is 136% below recommended, but both meet minimum specs. Playable at Low/Medium settings, 1080p or below.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Palworld smoothly up to 4k achieving around 97 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 136% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 10% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1789 ($140 CPU (Rank #75 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 Palworld performance right now. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p low, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium.
Palworld 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 and FSR Upscaling and XeSS, which you should enable to render at a lower resolution and use AI to significantly boost your FPS without losing visual quality.
Palworld requires at minimum a Core i5-3570K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1050 (GPU) with 16 GB RAM and 40 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i9-9900K and GeForce RTX 2070 with 32 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.
These Palworld 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.
