At 1440p ultra, the Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 sets the ceiling at about 89 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 186 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 52% (FPS gap: 97 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 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 42% | CPU Limits GPU 47% | CPU Limits GPU 41% | CPU Limits GPU 50% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 45% | CPU Limits GPU 51% | CPU Limits GPU 45% | CPU Limits GPU 52% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 37% | CPU Limits GPU 42% | CPU Limits GPU 41% | CPU Limits GPU 47% |
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 AI Max PRO 380 + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 30% and 94% and GPU utilization between 43% and 90%. Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 is utilized efficiently without persistent saturation. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 58% at 1080p to 76% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 73% to 58%.
This profile is CPU-bound. At 1080p (Full HD) Low, the Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 reaches 86% average load (79-94%), while the GeForce RTX 4090 remains comparatively lower at 58% (44-71%), which points to CPU-side frame preparation limits.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 73% and GPU 58%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 65% and GPU 64%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 58% and GPU 76%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
4K (Ultra HD) Medium is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 67% (65-69%) and GPU 76% (61-90%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the CPU. The Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 reaches 86% average load at 1080p (Full HD) Low while the GeForce RTX 4090 remains comparatively underutilized, so a faster processor would improve frame-time consistency and top-end FPS.
Understanding Hardware Utilization & Bottlenecks: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. This is the key to identifying performance bottlenecks in any system.

Yes, the Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Deadlock smoothly up to 1440p achieving around 92 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 279% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 87% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $2049 ($400 CPU (Rank #96 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 7845HX is a great upgrade option (Rank #1 for value).
For Deadlock, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 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, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Deadlock 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.
Deadlock requires at minimum a Core i5-2500K (CPU) and GeForce GTX 660 (GPU) with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-6700K and GeForce GTX 1060 with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen AI Max PRO 380 and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Deadlock 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.
