Evolve

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT paired with the Intel Arc B580 delivers playable frame rates in Evolve at 1080p and 1440p, but falls short at 4K. Measured data shows the combo reaches 65 FPS average at 1080p Ultra and 63 FPS at 1440p High, while 4K tops out at 59 FPS on Low settings—just below the 60 FPS playability threshold. The performance scaling across resolutions and presets points to a GPU-bound workload, and the combination ranks 2787th out of 3700 tested configurations.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The following table lists the exact average, minimum, and maximum frame rates recorded for each resolution and settings preset. Minimum and maximum values are only available for the Medium preset; other presets report average FPS only.

| Resolution | Settings | Avg FPS | Min FPS | Max FPS |

|------------|----------|---------|---------|---------|

| 3840x2160 | High | 36 | — | — |

| 3840x2160 | Low | 59 | — | — |

| 3840x2160 | Medium | 46 | 39 | 53 |

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 25 | — | — |

| 2560x1440 | High | 63 | — | — |

| 2560x1440 | Low | 104 | — | — |

| 2560x1440 | Medium | 80 | 68 | 93 |

| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 44 | — | — |

| 1920x1080 | High | 94 | — | — |

| 1920x1080 | Low | 155 | — | — |

| 1920x1080 | Medium | 120 | 102 | 138 |

| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 65 | — | — |

At 4K, the average FPS ranges from 59 on Low down to 25 on Ultra, with Medium landing at 46 and a minimum of 39. The 1440p results show a wider spread: Low hits 104, Medium 80, High 63, and Ultra 44. At 1080p, Low reaches 155, Medium 120, High 94, and Ultra 65. The Medium preset at each resolution provides the only min/max data, with the 1080p Medium range spanning 102 to 138, 1440p Medium from 68 to 93, and 4K Medium from 39 to 53.

Best Settings per Resolution

The playable threshold for this analysis is 60 FPS average. Based on the measured data:

• 3840x2160: No preset achieves 60 FPS. The highest average is 59 FPS on Low, which falls just short. Therefore, no playable settings exist at 4K.
• 2560x1440: The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is High, with an average of 63 FPS. Low and Medium also remain playable, at 104 and 80 FPS respectively, but High offers the best visual quality while still clearing the threshold.
• 1920x1080: All four presets are playable. The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 65 FPS. This allows full visual fidelity at 1080p.

In summary, the combo can handle Evolve at 1080p with maximum settings, at 1440p with High settings, but cannot reach 60 FPS at 4K under any preset.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured FPS scaling strongly indicates that the GPU is the primary performance driver in Evolve for this configuration. At each resolution, the spread between Low and Ultra is substantial: at 1080p, Low averages 155 FPS while Ultra averages 65; at 1440p, Low hits 104 and Ultra drops to 44; at 4K, Low yields 59 and Ultra only 25. The consistent relative impact of settings across resolutions suggests that the GPU’s compute and memory bandwidth are the limiting factors, not the CPU.

The CPU’s own benchmark scores support this interpretation. The Ryzen 5 5600GT posts a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 17272 and a single-core score of 2438, with a 74th percentile ranking among all CPUs. Its average benchmark score of 20733 places it well within the top quarter of processors. For a game released on 2015-02-09, these figures indicate ample headroom; the CPU is unlikely to bottleneck at the frame rates observed.

The GPU, meanwhile, records a Passmark G3D score of 15748 and sits in the 68th percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score is 23021. As resolution increases from 1080p to 1440p to 4K, the average FPS falls sharply across all presets—for example, Low goes from 155 to 104 to 59, and High from 94 to 63 to 36. This pattern is classic GPU-bound behavior: the rendering load grows with pixel count, and the GPU’s throughput becomes the deciding factor.

At 1080p, the CPU’s strong single-thread performance (Cinebench R23 single-core 2438) likely helps maintain high frame rates even at Low settings, where the GPU is less stressed. But the data does not show a CPU bottleneck at any resolution; the frame rate drops are proportional to resolution and settings, not to CPU workload.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the Ryzen 5 5600GT, based on average benchmark scores, are all within 0.5% of its performance. The Intel Core i5-12490F scores 20802 (delta -0.3%), the Intel Xeon 6325P scores 20821 (-0.4%), the Intel Core Ultra 5 125U scores 20826 (-0.4%), and the AMD EPYC 7J13 scores 20845 (-0.5%). Swapping the CPU to any of these would yield nearly identical CPU-bound behavior in Evolve, meaning the measured frame rates would remain essentially unchanged.

For the Intel Arc B580, the nearest GPU rivals are equally close. The AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP scores 23061 (delta -0.2%), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 scores 22895 (delta +0.6%), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 scores 23172 (delta -0.7%), and the NVIDIA P106-100 scores 23249 (delta -1%). The Arc B580’s average score of 23021 is within 1% of all four. Therefore, any of these GPUs would deliver similar FPS in Evolve, with the RTX 2080 being marginally faster and the RTX 3080 marginally slower, but all within a single percentage point.

In practice, a system with a Ryzen 5 5600GT and any of these rival GPUs would produce almost identical frame rates to the tested combo. The differences are too small to shift the playability verdict at any resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT and Intel Arc B580 ranks 2787th out of 3700 tested configurations for Evolve. This places it in the upper portion of the ranking, meaning it outperforms the majority of tested systems. While not a top-tier setup, it sits comfortably above the median, consistent with the observed playable performance at 1080p and 1440p. The rank reflects the balanced pairing of a strong mid-range CPU and a capable GPU, neither of which drags the other down in this title.
