Built for massive sieges, this MMO creates a significant CPU bottleneck in large battles. 16GB of RAM is the minimum, setting a standard for next-gen MMOs.
Actual FPS may vary based on RAM speed, background processes, and other system factors
Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 97 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 85 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 65 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 183% above the recommended GPU (GeForce GTX 1660) for Throne and Liberty. The Xeon E-2386G is 0% above the recommended CPU (Core i5-11600K).
The Xeon E-2386G sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GeForce RTX 4090 still has headroom.
This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p ultra, the Xeon E-2386G sets the ceiling at about 98 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 165 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 41% (FPS gap: 67 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Xeon E-2386G 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 26% | CPU Limits GPU 33% | CPU Limits GPU 37% | CPU Limits GPU 41% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 17% | CPU Limits GPU 25% | CPU Limits GPU 30% | CPU Limits GPU 36% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 20% | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 32% |
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 Xeon E-2386G + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 15% and 77% and GPU utilization between 77% and 100%. Xeon E-2386G stays in a controlled operating range, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 97% at 1080p to 96% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 60% to 55%.
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 1440p (2K QHD) Medium, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 100% usage (100-100%), while the Xeon E-2386G stays at 51% (34-68%). This shows the graphics pipeline is carrying most of the workload, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 60% and GPU 97%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 49% and GPU 98%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 55% and GPU 96%. This shows that workload scaling is limited, which can indicate engine-side constraints.
4K (Ultra HD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 61% (50-72%) and GPU 88% (77-100%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Xeon E-2386G remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade priority should be the GPU. The GeForce RTX 4090 reaches 100% average load at 1440p (2K QHD) Medium while the Xeon E-2386G still has headroom, so a faster graphics card would deliver the largest uplift.
Understanding Hardware Utilization: These percentages represent how much of your component's maximum processing power is actively being used during gameplay. They describe hardware load, but they do not directly tell you which component sets the FPS ceiling.
Important: a CPU or GPU can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. Two processors can both show 40% usage and still deliver very different frame rates, depending on per-core speed, cache, engine threading, driver overhead, and frame preparation efficiency.

Yes, the Xeon E-2386G paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Throne and Liberty smoothly up to 4k achieving around 65 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 183% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 0% below the recommended requirements.
Price data is not currently available for this combination. In general, look for setups where the CPU and GPU are balanced — this ensures you're not overspending on one component that the other can't keep up with.
For Throne and Liberty, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Xeon E-2386G 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.
Throne and Liberty 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.
Throne and Liberty requires at minimum a Core i5-7700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 960 (GPU) with 16 GB RAM and 63 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i5-11600K and GeForce GTX 1660 with 16 GB RAM. Your Xeon E-2386G and GeForce RTX 4090 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Throne and Liberty 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.
