A competitor to Overwatch featuring environmental destruction, which makes it CPU heavy. DX12 and 12GB of RAM are the minimum requirements.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, frame rates range from 8 to 27 FPS depending on quality settings. At 1440p, frame rates range from 6 to 20 FPS. At 4K, frame rates range from 4 to 8 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 131% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Marvel Rivals. The Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX is 707% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-10400).
The GeForce RTX 4090 sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX still has additional frame-generation headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $13348. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 8 FPS, equivalent to 0 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k medium, the GeForce RTX 4090 sets the ceiling at about 5 FPS, while the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX has headroom up to 116 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 96% (FPS gap: 111 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 4090 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 93% | GPU Limits CPU 95% | GPU Limits CPU 94% | GPU Limits CPU 95% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 91% | GPU Limits CPU 93% | GPU Limits CPU 93% | GPU Limits CPU 94% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 94% | GPU Limits CPU 96% | GPU Limits CPU 95% | GPU Limits CPU 94% |
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 Threadripper PRO 9995WX and GeForce RTX 4090 will struggle to run Marvel Rivals at smooth framerates. At 1080p Ultra, you can expect around 8 FPS which is classified as "struggling". Consider lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $13348 ($11699 CPU + $1649 GPU). 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 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 Threadripper PRO 9995WX and GeForce RTX 4090 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.
