Archeage

Best Settings per Resolution

For Archeage, the playable threshold is 60 FPS. At 3840x2160, no settings preset reaches this mark. The closest option is Low, which delivers 25 FPS average, followed by Medium at 22 FPS, High at 15 FPS, and Ultra at 10 FPS. None of these are viable for smooth gameplay.

At 2560x1440, the situation improves but remains below the 60 FPS threshold. Low settings produce 43 FPS average, Medium delivers 39 FPS, High drops to 26 FPS, and Ultra falls to 18 FPS. Again, no preset clears the 60 FPS bar.

At 1920x1080, the database shows one playable configuration. Low settings achieve 65 FPS average, which clears the 60 FPS threshold. Medium settings sit just below at 57 FPS average, with minimums of 49 FPS and maximums of 66 FPS. High settings deliver 39 FPS, and Ultra drops to 27 FPS. The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS at 1920x1080 is Low, with 65 FPS average.

CPU and GPU Roles

The recorded data reveals a system that is heavily constrained at higher resolutions and settings. The Intel Arc B370 is an integrated graphics solution with a 25 W TDP and system-shared memory, which explains the steep performance drops as resolution increases. The GPU's benchmark percentile sits at 5, placing it near the bottom of all tested GPUs. Its nearest rivals include the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570, ATI Radeon HD 5770, and AMD Radeon HD 7650M, all with average scores within 0.7 percent of the Arc B370.

The CPU, AMD Ryzen 7 5700, is a desktop-class 8-core, 16-thread Zen 3 processor with a 65 W TDP. Its benchmark percentile is 78, and its nearest rivals include the Intel Xeon D-2752TER, AMD Ryzen 5 7640U, AMD Ryzen 5 6600H, and AMD Ryzen 7 5825U, all within 0.3 percent of its average score. The CPU is clearly not the limiting factor in this combination.

Scaling between resolutions shows the GPU bottleneck clearly. At Low settings, moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 drops average FPS from 65 to 43, a reduction of roughly one-third. Moving from 2560x1440 to 3840x2160 drops average FPS from 43 to 25, another substantial loss. The same pattern appears at Medium settings: 57 FPS at 1920x1080, 39 FPS at 2560x1440, and 22 FPS at 3840x2160. The GPU simply does not have enough throughput to maintain frame rates as pixel count grows.

Settings scaling reinforces this conclusion. At 1920x1080, the gap between Low and Ultra is 38 FPS (65 down to 27). At 2560x1440, the gap narrows to 25 FPS (43 down to 18). At 3840x2160, the gap is 15 FPS (25 down to 10). The diminishing gaps at higher resolutions indicate the GPU is saturated regardless of settings, making preset changes less impactful.

The Ryzen 7 5700's strong multi-threaded scores, including 20,655 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 9,959 in Geekbench multi-core, suggest it can feed the GPU adequately. But the Arc B370's 6.144 TFLOPS FP32 performance and 48.00 GPixel/s pixel rate are simply too modest for demanding resolutions. The data indicates the GPU is the primary constraint at every resolution tested, with the CPU playing a secondary role.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and Intel Arc B370 ranks 3,423 out of 3,708 tested combos in Archeage. This places the system in the bottom 8 percent of all tested configurations. The low rank is driven almost entirely by the GPU, whose 5th percentile standing far outweighs the CPU's 78th percentile performance.

For context, the CPU alone sits comfortably above average, with its nearest rivals all scoring within 0.3 percent of its average benchmark of 25,517. The GPU, however, sits near the very bottom, with its nearest rivals within 1.4 percent of its average score of 1,184. The pairing of a strong CPU with a very weak GPU creates a lopsided configuration that struggles in GPU-bound scenarios like Archeage at higher resolutions.

The rank of 3,423 out of 3,708 means the vast majority of tested combos deliver better frame rates in this game. This is consistent with the measured FPS data, which shows only one playable settings preset at 1920x1080 and none at higher resolutions. The combo's low rank reflects a fundamental mismatch: the CPU has ample headroom, but the GPU cannot translate that into playable performance.

FAQ

Q: Can this PC run Archeage at 1920x1080?

A: Yes, at Low settings. The database records 65 FPS average at 1920x1080 on Low, which clears the 60 FPS threshold. Medium settings fall just short at 57 FPS average.

Q: Is Archeage playable at 2560x1440 with this hardware?

A: No. The best result at 2560x1440 is 43 FPS average on Low settings. Medium delivers 39 FPS, High delivers 26 FPS, and Ultra delivers 18 FPS. None reach 60 FPS.

Q: What is the best settings preset at 3840x2160?

A: The database lists no playable settings at 3840x2160. Low achieves 25 FPS average, Medium achieves 22 FPS, High achieves 15 FPS, and Ultra achieves 10 FPS. The verdictByResolution field confirms no playable settings exist at this resolution.

Q: How does the Intel Arc B370 compare to its nearest GPU rivals?

At 1920x1080 Medium, the range spans 49 to 66 FPS. These ranges show increasing variance as resolution decreases, with the 1920x1080 Medium range crossing the 60 FPS line at its peak.

The Verdict

The database verdict is clear: this PC can run Archeage at 1920x1080 on Low settings, achieving 65 FPS average. That is the only configuration that clears the 60 FPS playable threshold. At 1920x1080 Medium, the system averages 57 FPS, which is close but below the threshold, with minimums dipping to 49 FPS.

At 2560x1440 and 3840x2160, the verdictByResolution field lists no playable settings. The best results are 43 FPS at 2560x1440 Low and 25 FPS at 3840x2160 Low. Neither comes close to 60 FPS.

The Ryzen 7 5700 is a capable processor, ranking in the 78th percentile with strong multi-threaded performance. The Intel Arc B370, however, ranks in the 5th percentile and behaves like an entry-level integrated solution. Its system-shared memory and 25 W TDP limit its ability to handle Archeage beyond low-resolution, low-settings scenarios.

For players targeting 1920x1080, the system is playable only at Low settings. Medium settings are borderline and will dip below 60 FPS at times. Higher resolutions are not viable. The combo rank of 3,423 out of 3,708 reflects this reality: most tested systems deliver better Archeage performance. This configuration is best suited for 1080p gaming at reduced visual quality, with no headroom for higher presets or resolutions.
