As the world's most popular MOBA, League of Legends runs on a proprietary engine that has been updated for over a decade. Recently, Riot increased the minimum requirements to include AVX instruction support and dropped support for older OSs and DirectX 9. While still lightweight, modern team fights with complex particle effects can strain older integrated graphics. The game scales well with single-thread CPU performance, meaning even modern entry-level processors can deliver high frame rates.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 440 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 319 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 213 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 1277% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 560) for League of Legends. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE is 226% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-3330).
At lower resolutions (1080p (low/medium), 1440p (low/medium), all 4k settings), the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE determines the performance ceiling. As graphical load increases at (1080p (high/ultra)), the GeForce RTX 4090 takes over as the primary performance factor. The system is well balanced at 1440p (high/ultra).

At 1080p low, the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE sets the ceiling at about 522 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 700 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 25% (FPS gap: 178 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 8/12 cells, GPU limits 2/12, balanced 2/12.
Your Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE 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) | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 9% | GPU Limits CPU 8% | GPU Limits CPU 10% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 19% | CPU Limits GPU 11% | Balanced | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 9% | CPU Limits GPU 8% | CPU Limits GPU 6% | CPU Limits GPU 8% |
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.
The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

The Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 7% and 34% and GPU utilization between 33% and 73%. Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE keeps significant headroom across presets, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 37% at 1080p to 68% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 21% to 17%.
The utilization pattern is relatively balanced. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 72% average at its highest-load preset, while the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE peaks at 24% average, with no single component consistently acting as a hard bottleneck.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 21% and GPU 37%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 17% and GPU 51%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 17% and GPU 68%. This shows that GPU demand scales sharply with resolution while CPU load remains comparatively stable.
4K (Ultra HD) Ultra is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 17% (11-23%) and GPU 72% (70-73%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Current utilization does not show an urgent upgrade requirement for either component; the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE and GeForce RTX 4090 remain reasonably matched for this title.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run League of Legends smoothly up to 4k achieving around 213 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 1277% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 226% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1869 ($220 CPU (Rank #199 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 League of Legends, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE 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: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra. GPU fully utilized at: 1080p high, 1080p ultra.
League of Legends 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.
League of Legends requires at minimum a Core i3-530 (CPU) and GeForce 9600 GT (GPU) with 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-3330 and GeForce GTX 560 with 4 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These League of Legends 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.
