Downfall

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the recorded data shows a wide spread between presets. Low settings produce an average of 178 FPS, Medium drops to 145 FPS with a minimum of 123 FPS and a maximum of 167 FPS, High settles at 119 FPS, and Ultra maintains an average of 74 FPS. The gap from Low to Ultra is substantial, roughly 104 FPS between the two extremes, which indicates the game scales heavily with preset quality at 4K.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages climb across every setting. Low reaches 265 FPS, Medium hits 233 FPS with a minimum of 198 FPS and a maximum of 268 FPS, High delivers 191 FPS, and Ultra still clears the playable threshold comfortably at 120 FPS. The drop from Medium to High is 42 FPS, while High to Ultra is a further 71 FPS, showing that Ultra imposes a notable cost even at this resolution.

At 1920x1080, the frame rates are the highest in the dataset. Low averages 296 FPS, Medium averages 276 FPS with a minimum of 234 FPS and a maximum of 317 FPS, High averages 257 FPS, and Ultra averages 168 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra is 128 FPS, and even the most demanding preset leaves significant headroom above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The minimum values recorded for Medium at 1080p, 234 FPS, remain far above what any display at this resolution would realistically require for smooth gameplay.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results indicate that this combination is heavily GPU-bound at higher resolutions, but the CPU still holds its own at lower settings. At 1920x1080, the difference between Low and Ultra is 128 FPS, and the fact that Low reaches 296 FPS suggests the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G is capable of feeding the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 enough frames at this resolution. The CPU's 12 threads and Zen 2 architecture appear sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the GPU in this title, given the high averages recorded.

At 2560x1440, the scaling pattern shifts. Low averages 265 FPS, which is only 31 FPS lower than at 1080p, while Ultra drops from 168 FPS at 1080p to 120 FPS at 1440p, a reduction of 48 FPS. This indicates that pixel throughput is becoming a larger factor, but the CPU is still able to maintain high frame delivery. The GPU's 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth help explain why 1440p Ultra remains far above the playable threshold.

At 3840x2160, the GPU's role becomes dominant. Low drops to 178 FPS, Medium to 145 FPS, High to 119 FPS, and Ultra to 74 FPS. The reductions from 1440p to 4K are 87 FPS for Low, 88 FPS for Medium, 72 FPS for High, and 46 FPS for Ultra. The smaller absolute drop at Ultra suggests that the GPU is nearing its limits while the CPU becomes less relevant. The RTX 4080's 9728 shading units and 48.74 TFLOPS FP32 compute are clearly the driving force at 4K, while the Ryzen 5 4600G's 6-core, 12-thread configuration remains sufficient across all tested presets.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The database places the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G at the 71st percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17507. Its nearest rivals are closely grouped. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE scores 17482, a delta of 0.1 percent, meaning it performs nearly identically. The Intel Core 7 150U scores 17395, a delta of 0.6 percent, placing it slightly behind. The AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE scores 17614, a delta of -0.6 percent, and the Intel Core i3-14100T scores 17648, a delta of -0.8 percent. These four processors would produce very similar CPU-bound behavior in Downfall, though none of them would meaningfully change the outcome given how far above 60 FPS this combo sits.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 sits at the 86th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 54247. Its nearest rival is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, which scores 54209, a delta of 0.1 percent, making it virtually indistinguishable in this game. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, a delta of -1.1 percent, placing it slightly ahead. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, a delta of -2.6 percent, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, a delta of -2.7 percent. Any of these GPUs paired with the Ryzen 5 4600G would deliver frame rates in the same general range, with the 4K Ultra preset being the only scenario where small differences might matter.

The Verdict

The recorded data confirms that this PC can run Downfall at every resolution and preset tested. At 3840x2160, all four presets are playable, with Ultra averaging 74 FPS, High averaging 119 FPS, Medium averaging 145 FPS, and Low averaging 178 FPS. The minimum recorded at 4K Medium is 123 FPS, which still clears the 60 FPS threshold by a wide margin. At 2560x1440, Ultra averages 120 FPS, High averages 191 FPS, Medium averages 233 FPS, and Low averages 265 FPS. At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 168 FPS, High averages 257 FPS, Medium averages 276 FPS, and Low averages 296 FPS.

The verdict by resolution is clear: every setting at every resolution reaches or exceeds 60 FPS. The weakest point in the entire dataset is 4K Ultra at 74 FPS average, which is still 14 FPS above the playable threshold. There is no scenario in the measured results where this combination fails to run the game smoothly. The Ryzen 5 4600G does not appear to hold the RTX 4080 back in this title, as even the most demanding preset at 4K remains well above the playable line.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 74 FPS. This is the highest quality option available in the dataset, so players can run the game at maximum settings at 4K without concern. The next step down, High, offers 119 FPS for those who prefer higher refresh rates, but Ultra is the best choice for visual fidelity while remaining playable.

At 2560x1440, Ultra is again the best setting, averaging 120 FPS. This provides both maximum quality and a frame rate that suits high refresh rate displays. High averages 191 FPS and Medium averages 233 FPS, but neither is necessary since Ultra already clears the threshold with 60 FPS of headroom.

At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 168 FPS, making it the best setting at this resolution. The gap between Ultra and High is 89 FPS, but Ultra still provides more than enough performance for competitive or high refresh rate play. The minimum recorded at 1080p Medium is 234 FPS, and no preset at this resolution comes close to dropping below the playable threshold.
