Performance Summary
The Xeon W-3175X + GeForce RTX 4090 pairing runs this title with CPU utilization between 28% and 94% and GPU utilization between 57% and 98%. Xeon W-3175X reaches high load in heavier scenarios, while GeForce RTX 4090 carries most of the graphics load at heavier visual settings. As resolution scales, average GPU load rises from 66% at 1080p to 96% at 4K, while CPU averages move from 86% to 33%.
Load Interpretation
From a utilization perspective, this is a GPU-heavy load profile. At 4K (Ultra HD) High, the GeForce RTX 4090 averages 97% usage (96-98%), while the Xeon W-3175X stays at 32% (29-36%). This shows the graphics pipeline is carrying most of the workload, but utilization alone does not define the FPS limiter.
Resolution Scaling
At 1080p, averages sit around CPU 86% and GPU 66%. At 1440p, that shifts to CPU 45% and GPU 94%, and at 4K it reaches CPU 33% and GPU 96%. This shows that workload scaling is present on both components, with stronger pressure on the GPU.
Optimal Settings Recommendation
1440p (2K QHD) Low is the most balanced preset based on this dataset. It runs around CPU 45% (35-55%) and GPU 92% (90-94%), which keeps GeForce RTX 4090 well utilized without constant max-out behavior while Xeon W-3175X remains stable for consistent frame delivery.
Upgrade Insight
Both components are stressed near their limits in the heaviest presets (Xeon W-3175X: 86% avg, GeForce RTX 4090: 97% avg). A targeted upgrade should follow your target resolution: GPU first for higher image quality, CPU first for higher minimum FPS.
