This chart answers a simple question: which upgrade is more likely to increase FPS first? In this case, there is no clear winner.
The largest gap still appears at 1080p Low, where the Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX reaches about 277 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 still has headroom up to roughly 302 FPS.
That means neither part is consistently hitting its ceiling far ahead of the other. Across all tested settings, this pairing is GPU-limited in 0 out of 12 cases, CPU-limited in 12, and balanced in 0.
Overall, this is a balanced combination in this game.
Neither the Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX nor the GeForce RTX 4090 stands out as the consistent limiter in this game, so the better upgrade depends more on your target settings than on one obvious bottleneck.
This chart shows which upgrade is more likely to unlock more FPS in each tested setting. The lower line represents the part that reaches its limit first. When the CPU and GPU lines stay close together, the system is more balanced. When the gap widens, one component is more clearly holding the other back. Hover any setting to inspect it.
The lower line is the current limiter. The closer the two lines are, the more balanced the CPU and GPU are for this game.
Each line represents an estimated FPS ceiling for one component, rather than live usage alone.
To estimate the CPU ceiling, we pair the Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX with GeForce RTX 5090, our current GPU anchor. To estimate the GPU ceiling, we pair the GeForce RTX 4090 with Ryzen 9 9950X3D, our current CPU anchor.
The lower line indicates the current limiter, since that component reaches its FPS ceiling first. In most scenarios, that is also the part most likely to deliver the bigger performance uplift if upgraded first.
The percentage shown represents the gap between the two ceilings. In practical terms, it shows how much of the stronger component's potential is left unused because the weaker one becomes the bottleneck first.

Yes, the Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Call of Duty: Warzone smoothly up to 4k achieving around 128 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 535% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 299% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $2,896 ($1,247 CPU + $1,649 GPU). This is a well-balanced setup, meaning you're getting good value from both components without significant waste.
This setup is already well-balanced for Call of Duty: Warzone. In the Performance Limiter Analysis, neither side consistently defines the maximum FPS across the tested presets. Across all tested settings, the distribution is 0/12 GPU-limited, 12/12 CPU-limited, and 0/12 balanced. In practice, this pairing behaves as a well-balanced combination in this game. Because of that, upgrading only one component would usually bring smaller gains than improving the overall pairing.
Call of Duty: Warzone 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.
Call of Duty: Warzone requires at minimum a Unknown CPU (CPU) and Unknown GPU (GPU) with 8GB RAM and Unknown storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Unknown CPU and Unknown GPU with 16GB RAM. Your Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Call of Duty: Warzone 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.
