Elden Ring
Capped at 60 FPS, Elden Ring doesn't need ultra-high-end hardware for high frame rates, but its seamless open world demands an efficient memory subsystem. While shader compilation issues have been improved, it still relies heavily on single-thread CPU performance.
This game has a built-in FPS cap of 60 FPS

Frequently Asked Questions
2Is there a more cost-effective setup to run Elden Ring?
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.
3Which component should I upgrade first to improve Elden Ring performance?
This setup is already well-balanced for Elden Ring. No significant bottleneck - CPU and GPU are well matched across all settings. Both the Xeon E5-4650 v3 and GeForce RTX 4090 complement each other effectively, so upgrading either component individually would yield diminishing returns. If you want more FPS, you'd benefit most from upgrading both CPU and GPU together.
4Does this setup support Frame Generation for Elden Ring?
Elden Ring 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.
5What are the minimum and recommended specs for Elden Ring?
Elden Ring requires at minimum a Core i5-8400 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 60 GB storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-8700K and GeForce GTX 1070 with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
6How accurate are these Elden Ring FPS estimates for the Xeon E5-4650 v3 and GeForce RTX 4090?
These Elden Ring 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.
