Can an i7 4790 deliver 144 fps in pubg

[Caramello Koala]

hi folks
I bought recently a 4080s and paired it in a pc with an i7 4790. I thought this processor might deliver 144 in pubg. The gpu should handle it in 1440 or 1080 on mid settings. Is it my false assumption or should I be able with tweakin the settings to get fps figures over 144?

Thanks all

On 1920x1080 you should reach 144fps goal, you want to increase the graphics settings as much as possible to minimize the bottleneck, lowering the graphics settings will put more on the cpu.

If it's an Rtx 4080 you should have no issues having everything on Ultra.

The i7 4790 is similar to an Ryzen 5 1600, my previous cpu was an 1600x and it was playable in Pubg, upgraded to an 3600 recently, would recommend that cpu if you ever plan to upgrade.
I bought mine used for 50€ you can get used DDR4 cl14 3600mhz ram for same price and decent motherboard for around 70-100€.

Easily. If I played years ago this with i5-3570K (stock)+gtx 1060 and later with rtx 2070 and always had +140fps.

Youre gonna bottleneck that GPU with a 4790 and leave a lot of performance on the table.

Id be surprised if you ever see over 50-60% GPU usage. You should of upgraded the entire PC and went with less of a graphics card. You're on a 4th gen Intel that still uses slow DDR3 memory. This whole PC is a complete mismatch and isnt going to feel much better than when you started.

No it cant. This cpu is more than 10 years old, what did you expected? 144 fps really?
The minimal cpu for stable 144fps in all situations is 5600x/12400f in case of full tweaked windows and xmp 3600 memory.
The rtx 4080s is a huge overkill for that game,even at 4k ultra. So you did a big mistake buying it instead of changing your platform to AMD CPU with 3D-Vcache (7800x3d/9800x3d) unless you have extra money for such upgrade in the near future.
Changing a platform + buying a weaker card such as 4060/6700xt would have made more difference.

WOW has nothing to do with CPU ALL ABOUT GPU and you can't play this game on CPU GPU Nearly Impossible.. so GO BUY a monitor to support the 144 Turn it on the settings little by little until you get the performance and stop cheating

[Poor Bastard]

Game is optimized enough but pairing a $1000 GPU with a $50 CPU won't give you a good time in most other games.

well I guess i spend another buck on a new cpu then. I was just curious if Pubg is really that depending on a strong cpu. Thank you guys

Never comment such topics again unless you learn how hardware works depending on a game. Thanks.

Its abnormally dependant on CPU and fast RAM if cpu has not enough of L3 cache. The game does have large map with 100 players which do a lot of unscripted actions every second. Combine that with hundreds of stupid gameplay mechanics and anti-cheat scans - you will get a cpu napalm bombardment.

THAT was exactly the information I somehow supposed. Im fine with 60 fps in the singleplayer action games i preferably play but from time to time i jump into pubg and I was just astouned that the performance is bottlenecked around 70. I mean thats anyways fine. I guess I will buy anyway a new pc. Thank you for that bit of info about the software architecture behind pubg. ggs guys
