Neither a measured verdict nor a direct benchmark covers every figure on this page, so the pair figures below are labelled estimates: calculated from this game's measured results (the measured CPU ceilings and GPU results on the Elden Ring benchmarks page), each with its confidence level and the measured parts it is interpolated between. Estimates are badged and styled differently from measured verdicts, and are never presented as measurements. Settings: Highest settings (TechPowerUp RTX 5090 review suite), framerate cap removed - the shipped game caps at 60 fps. CPU ceiling measured at 1080p, highest settings (TechPowerUp CPU suite), RTX 4090, framerate cap removed.
Estimated: Balanced pairing
Estimated frame rate: ~124–139 fps (calculated range, not a measured one).
On the estimated figures, the CPU ceiling and the GPU's delivered rate sit within 1.0% of each other — neither part wastes much of the other. The gap is calculated between the two figures above: (faster − slower) ÷ faster.
That range justifies a 144 Hz monitor in this game.
Estimate — calculated from 16 measured results in this game, not a direct measurement. Confidence: HIGH. The GPU figure is interpolated between RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti 8GB — the nearest measured GPUs in this game. If reviewers publish a benchmark for the estimated part, a measured verdict replaces this estimate. How estimates work.
CPU-only figure: with a flagship GPU installed, Core Ultra 7 265K tops out at ~139 fps in this game (measured CPU ceiling — it applies at every resolution). Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB has no measurement and no supported estimate at 1440p in this game, so there is no pair figure at this resolution.
CPU-only figure: with a flagship GPU installed, Core Ultra 7 265K tops out at ~139 fps in this game (measured CPU ceiling — it applies at every resolution). Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB has no measurement and no supported estimate at 4K in this game, so there is no pair figure at this resolution.
