Doom

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is a high-end desktop combination built around a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 4 processor and a 16 GB GDDR6X Ada Lovelace GPU. For the 2016 FPS title Doom, the measured frame rates place this combo at rank 253 out of 3712 tested combinations, meaning it sits in the top 7% of all systems in the database for this specific game. The data shows that this pairing delivers far more performance than the game’s 60 FPS playable threshold, with every tested setting and resolution clearing that mark by a substantial margin.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame value of 253 out of 3712 places this CPU-GPU pair in the 93rd percentile of all tested combos for Doom. That is a strong position, but it is not the absolute top tier — 252 other combinations produce higher average frame rates in this title. The ranking reflects the GPU’s dominance in this workload; the RTX 4080 SUPER sits at the 86th percentile among all GPUs, while the Ryzen 5 7500F ranks at the 77th percentile among all CPUs. The imbalance is expected for a 2016 FPS title that relies heavily on GPU rasterization rather than multi-threaded CPU scaling.

Looking at the CPU’s benchmark scores, the Ryzen 5 7500F delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22799 and a single-core score of 3218. In Geekbench, it scores 12362 multi-core and 2374 single-core. The Passmark multi-thread score is 26825, and the single-thread score is 3841. These numbers indicate a capable mid-range processor that will not bottleneck the RTX 4080 SUPER in Doom, especially given that the game’s engine was designed for CPUs from its release era. The GPU’s Passmark G3D score of 34245 and 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6600 show massive rasterization headroom.

The average benchmark score for the CPU is 24964, which places its nearest rivals within a tight band. The Intel Core i7-11850H scores 24935 (0.1% lower), the AMD Ryzen 5 8400F scores 25005 (0.2% higher), the Intel Core i7-13620H scores 24911 (0.2% lower), and the Intel Core 5 210H scores 24872 (0.4% lower). These deltas are negligible, meaning any of those CPUs would produce nearly identical frame rates in Doom when paired with the same GPU. For the GPU, the RTX 4080 SUPER’s average benchmark score is 54209. Its nearest rival, the RTX 4080, scores 54247 (0.1% higher) — essentially a tie. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828 (1.1% higher), the Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698 (2.7% higher), and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757 (2.8% higher). Those AMD cards outperform the RTX 4080 SUPER in aggregate benchmark scores, but the measured FPS in Doom specifically favors the NVIDIA card given its driver optimizations for this title.

The rank of 253 is impressive when considering the full field of 3712 combos. The top 7% placement means this system outperforms the vast majority of tested configurations, including many with newer or more expensive hardware. The combination’s strength lies in the GPU; the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 10240 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 112 ROPs provide enormous fill rate for a game that predates modern rendering complexity. The CPU’s 32 MB shared L3 cache and 83.2 GB/s memory bandwidth are more than sufficient for Doom’s level streaming and entity updates.

FAQ

*Q: Does the AMD Ryzen 5 7500F bottleneck the RTX 4080 SUPER in Doom?*

A: No. The CPU scores 22799 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 3218 single-core. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves 400.2 FPS average, which indicates no meaningful CPU limitation — the processor can feed the GPU fast enough to max out even the highest frame rates measured.

Q: What is the best settings preset at 4K resolution?

A: At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset runs at 82.9 FPS average, which is above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The data shows that High (103.7 FPS), Medium (123.6 FPS), and Low (140.7 FPS) all also clear 60 FPS, but Ultra is the most demanding preset that stays playable.

Q: How does this combo compare to a system with an RTX 4080 (non-SUPER)?

A: The RTX 4080 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 54209, while the RTX 4080 scores 54247. The delta is -0.1%, meaning the two GPUs are statistically identical in aggregate performance. In Doom, expect near-identical FPS from both cards when paired with the same CPU.

Q: Is the Ryzen 5 7500F a better choice than the Ryzen 5 8400F for this game?

A: The 7500F has an average CPU benchmark score of 24964, while the 8400F scores 25005. The 8400F is 0.2% faster on average, but that difference is within measurement noise. For Doom, either CPU would produce the same frame rates with the RTX 4080 SUPER.

Q: What frame rate can I expect at 1440p with Ultra settings?

A: At 2560x1440 with the Ultra preset, the measured average FPS is 155.3. This is more than double the 60 FPS threshold, making it ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors. The High preset runs at 187.3 FPS, Medium at 226.9 FPS, and Low at 258.2 FPS.

Q: Can this system handle 1080p at maximum settings for competitive play?

A: Yes. At 1920x1080 with Ultra settings, the average FPS is 237.3. With Low settings, it reaches 400.2 FPS. The 237.3 FPS at Ultra is well above any 144Hz or 240Hz monitor’s refresh rate, and the low preset’s 400.2 FPS exceeds even the fastest esports displays.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rates for this combo are listed per resolution and settings preset. All values are average FPS; the database does not include min or max FPS for this game. The playable threshold is 60 FPS, and every single measurement exceeds it.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the results scale as expected with preset complexity. The Low preset delivers 140.7 FPS, which is the highest average at this resolution. Medium runs at 123.6 FPS, High at 103.7 FPS, and Ultra at 82.9 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 57.8 FPS, or roughly 41% lower performance when maxing out settings. Even the Ultra preset at 82.9 FPS leaves a comfortable 22.9 FPS margin above the 60 FPS threshold, meaning 4K gaming is fully viable with all visual features enabled.

Moving to 2560x1440 (1440p), the frame rates jump significantly. Low settings produce 258.2 FPS, Medium 226.9 FPS, High 187.3 FPS, and Ultra 155.3 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra is 102.9 FPS, showing that each step up in quality costs roughly 30-40 FPS. The Ultra preset at 155.3 FPS is particularly notable because it clears the 60 FPS threshold by 95.3 FPS — this system is not merely playable at 1440p Ultra; it is fast enough for 144Hz displays without any compromise.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), the numbers become extreme. Low settings hit 400.2 FPS, Medium 349.3 FPS, High 294.8 FPS, and Ultra 237.3 FPS. The scaling from Ultra to Low represents a 162.9 FPS improvement, or 69% higher frame rate. For a game like Doom, which rewards fast reaction times, these figures mean the display refresh rate — not the hardware — will be the limiting factor. A 240Hz monitor can be fully utilized at Medium or High settings, while even Ultra clears 237 FPS.

The data shows consistent behavior across resolutions: the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 736.3 GB/s memory bandwidth and 52.22 TFLOPS FP32 performance keep the frame rates high even at 4K. The CPU’s role becomes more prominent at lower resolutions, but the 7500F’s 5.00 GHz boost clock and 12 threads prevent any bottleneck. The measured FPS values are all averages, so transient dips could occur during intense combat scenes, but the margins above 60 FPS are large enough that even a 20% worst-case drop would keep the system playable.

The Verdict

The data is unambiguous: this PC can run Doom at every resolution and preset tested, and it does so with substantial headroom above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The verdictByResolution field confirms that all four settings presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are playable at each of the three resolutions. The best settings per resolution are Ultra everywhere: 82.9 FPS at 3840x2160, 155.3 FPS at 2560x1440, and 237.3 FPS at 1920x1080.

For 4K gaming, the Ultra preset at 82.9 FPS is the clear recommendation. It runs above 60 FPS with a 22.9 FPS buffer, and the visual quality jump from High (103.7 FPS) to Ultra is worth the 20.8 FPS cost. At 1440p, the Ultra preset’s 155.3 FPS makes it the obvious choice for anyone with a 144Hz monitor; the GPU has enough spare capacity to hold that frame rate consistently. At 1080p, Ultra’s 237.3 FPS is overkill for most displays, but it still represents the best experience with zero compromises.

The ranking of 253 out of 3712 combos reinforces the verdict. This system is not just playable — it is in the top 7% of all tested configurations for Doom. The bottleneck analysis from the benchmark scores suggests the RTX 4080 SUPER is doing the heavy lifting; the CPU’s 77th percentile ranking among all CPUs is lower than the GPU’s 86th percentile, but the game’s age means even a mid-range modern CPU is sufficient. Users with a 120Hz or 144Hz display will see no benefit from higher settings than Ultra because the frame rates already exceed those refresh rates. Users with a 240Hz display can enable Ultra at 1080p and still hit 237.3 FPS, or drop to High for 294.8 FPS if they prefer higher frame consistency.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Based on the nearestRivals data for both components, several alternative builds would produce nearly identical performance in Doom. The Intel Core i7-11850H scores 24935 in the CPU average benchmark, just 0.1% lower than the Ryzen 5 7500F’s 24964. This mobile-class chip is an odd pairing for a desktop GPU, but as a CPU-only swap, the frame rates would be indistinguishable. The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F scores 25005 (0.2% higher), making it the closest CPU rival. The Intel Core i7-13620H (24911, 0.2% lower) and Intel Core 5 210H (24872, 0.4% lower) round out the near-identical CPU options.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is the most direct alternative. Its average benchmark score of 54247 is only 0.1% higher than the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 54209, so swapping to the non-SUPER card would change Doom frame rates by less than 1 FPS in any preset. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828 (1.1% higher), which suggests slightly better aggregate performance, but this is a workstation card with different driver characteristics. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698 (2.7% higher) and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757 (2.8% higher) — both outperform the RTX 4080 SUPER in synthetic benchmarks, but their real-world Doom performance may differ due to driver optimizations.

Practically speaking, any of these CPU rivals paired with any of these GPU rivals would land in the same performance bracket. The deltaPct values are all within ±3%, which translates to a few FPS at most in Doom. The closest match is the RTX 4080 with the Ryzen 5 8400F, which would effectively be a tie with the tested combo. The Intel Core i7-11850H and Core i7-13620H are laptop CPUs, so they would require a different platform, but their benchmark proximity means they would not hold back the RTX 4080 SUPER in this game.

For users considering a downgrade to save on platform costs, the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB offers 2.7% higher aggregate GPU scores, but it has only 12 GB of memory and a different architecture. The RTX 4080 SUPER’s 16 GB GDDR6X memory and 736.3 GB/s bandwidth give it an advantage in memory-intensive scenarios, though Doom from 2016 is unlikely to stress that capacity. The data suggests that the tested combo is well-balanced, with no single component dragging down the other.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average FPS of 82.9. This is the best choice for visual fidelity, as it clears the threshold by 22.9 FPS. If a higher frame rate is preferred, High runs at 103.7 FPS, Medium at 123.6 FPS, and Low at 140.7 FPS — but Ultra is the maximum settings that remain fully playable.

At 2560x1440, Ultra is again the best setting, delivering 155.3 FPS. This is 95.3 FPS above the 60 FPS threshold, so there is no reason to drop below Ultra unless targeting a 240Hz display — and even then, Ultra’s 155.3 FPS is close enough for most users. High runs at 187.3 FPS, Medium at 226.9 FPS, and Low at 258.2 FPS, but the Ultra preset provides the full experience without sacrificing playability.

At 1920x1080, Ultra remains the best setting with 237.3 FPS. This is 177.3 FPS above the threshold, making it the clear recommendation for any 1080p display. Low settings reach 400.2 FPS, which is useful only for extreme competitive scenarios where frame rate trumps visuals. Medium (349.3 FPS) and High (294.8 FPS) offer middle grounds, but the Ultra preset’s 237.3 FPS is already so far above 60 FPS that downgrading settings provides no practical benefit unless the user has a 360Hz monitor. The data shows that this combo never falls below 82.9 FPS in any tested configuration, so the answer to “Can it run Doom?” is a definitive yes — with room to spare at every resolution.
