Evolve

AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 form a high-end pairing for Evolve, a 2015 FPS title. The data shows this combination delivers playable frame rates across all tested resolutions, with the strongest headroom at 1080p and 1440p. Benchmark results indicate the RTX 4080 shoulders most of the rendering load, while the Ryzen 7 5700G’s eight-core CPU keeps pace even at lower settings where frame rates exceed 200 FPS.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the measured averages span a wide range depending on preset. Low settings produce an average of 128 FPS, Medium reaches 99 FPS with a minimum of 84 FPS and a maximum of 114 FPS, High averages 78 FPS, and Ultra drops to 54 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K is the only configuration in the entire dataset that falls below the 60 FPS playable threshold, with the average sitting 6 FPS under that mark.

Moving to 2560x1440, all four presets clear 60 FPS comfortably. Low averages 225 FPS, Medium averages 174 FPS with a minimum of 148 FPS and a maximum of 200 FPS, High averages 137 FPS, and Ultra averages 95 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at this resolution is 130 FPS, indicating that the GPU has substantial headroom even under maximum graphical load.

At 1920x1080, the frame rates become extremely high. Low averages 287 FPS, Medium averages 260 FPS with a minimum of 221 FPS and a maximum of 299 FPS, High averages 204 FPS, and Ultra averages 141 FPS. The minimum recorded value at 1080p Medium—221 FPS—is higher than the average at 4K High, which underscores how resolution scaling affects this combo.

The dataset includes min/max values only for Medium settings at each resolution. At 4K Medium, the range spans 84 to 114 FPS, a 30 FPS spread. At 1440p Medium, the spread widens to 148–200 FPS, a 52 FPS range. At 1080p Medium, the spread is 221–299 FPS, a 78 FPS range. This increasing variance at lower resolutions suggests the CPU begins to influence frame pacing more noticeably as the GPU becomes less constrained.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is High, with an average of 78 FPS. Ultra falls short at 54 FPS, so High represents the visual ceiling for 4K playability. Medium also clears the threshold at 99 FPS, but High offers better image quality while still maintaining a 18 FPS margin above the 60 FPS line.

At 2560x1440, Ultra is fully playable with an average of 95 FPS. This is the best settings option because it maxes out the preset scale while keeping a 35 FPS buffer above the playable threshold. High and Medium also work, but they trade visual fidelity for no practical benefit since Ultra already delivers smooth performance.

At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 141 FPS, making it the clear best choice. The 81 FPS margin above 60 FPS means even demanding scenes are unlikely to cause drops below playable levels. Lower presets at this resolution exceed 200 FPS, which is useful for high-refresh-rate displays, but for standard 60 FPS targets, Ultra is the recommended setting.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals a pronounced GPU-bound behavior at 4K and a shift toward CPU influence at 1080p. At 3840x2160, the average FPS drops by 50 when moving from Low to Ultra (128 to 54), a 58% reduction. This steep scaling indicates the RTX 4080 is the primary bottleneck, as the CPU has enough headroom to feed frames at lower settings. The 4K Ultra result of 54 FPS is the only sub-60 outcome, reinforcing that the GPU’s raw throughput is the limiting factor at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the Low-to-Ultra spread narrows to 130 FPS (225 to 95), a 58% drop as well. However, the absolute frame rates are much higher, suggesting the CPU is still not fully saturated. The Ryzen 7 5700G’s 16 threads and 3.80 GHz base clock provide sufficient single-thread performance for Evolve’s engine, which is reflected in the 225 FPS Low result—a figure that would challenge many CPUs.

At 1920x1080, the Low-to-Ultra gap is 146 FPS (287 to 141), a 51% reduction. The Low preset average of 287 FPS is the highest in the dataset, and the Medium minimum of 221 FPS shows that even under load, the CPU maintains high throughput. The smaller percentage drop at 1080p compared to 4K suggests that the CPU is beginning to matter more at lower resolutions, though the GPU still dominates the overall performance picture. Resolution scaling from 1080p to 4K at Ultra reduces FPS by 87 (141 to 54), while at Low it reduces by 159 (287 to 128), indicating the GPU handles the extra pixel load proportionally.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 combination ranks 319th out of 3700 tested combos for Evolve, placing it in the top 9% of all configurations in the database. This ranking reflects the GPU’s strong performance, as the RTX 4080 sits at the 86th percentile among all GPUs, while the CPU is at the 79th percentile among all CPUs. The combo’s high rank is driven primarily by the GPU, which delivers 48.74 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 716.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth.

The CPU’s nearest rivals show a tight cluster. The Intel Core i9-9900K has an average score of 27097, which is 0.2% lower than the Ryzen 7 5700G’s 27051. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 scores 26936, 0.4% higher than the 5700G. The Intel Core i5-14400T scores 27166, 0.4% lower, and the Intel Core i7-1370P scores 26900, 0.6% higher. These deltas are all within 1%, meaning the CPU’s performance class is tightly packed and unlikely to differentiate gaming results significantly.

The GPU’s nearest rivals similarly cluster within a narrow band. The RTX 4080 SUPER scores 54209, just 0.1% higher than the RTX 4080’s 54247. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, which is 1.1% lower, while the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, 2.6% lower, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, 2.7% lower. The dominance of the RTX 4080 in this grouping is clear—the nearest competitor is only 0.1% away, but the delta grows to nearly 3% for the Radeon parts.

The Verdict

This PC can run Evolve across nearly all tested configurations. At 1920x1080, every preset including Ultra clears 60 FPS, with the best settings being Ultra at an average of 141 FPS. At 2560x1440, Ultra also achieves 95 FPS, making the full preset range playable. At 3840x2160, High is the best playable setting at 78 FPS, while Ultra dips to 54 FPS and fails the playable threshold.

The verdictByResolution data confirms this pattern: 1080p and 1440p list all four presets as playable, while 4K lists High, Low, and Medium. For a 2015 FPS title, this combo delivers exceptional headroom, and only the most demanding 4K Ultra setting falls short. The RTX 4080’s 16 GB GDDR6X memory and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth handle Evolve’s textures with ease, while the Ryzen 7 5700G’s 16 threads ensure no CPU-side stutters even at high frame rates.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals are all within 1% of the Ryzen 7 5700G’s average benchmark score of 27051. The Intel Core i9-9900K (27097, 0.2% lower), AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 (26936, 0.4% higher), Intel Core i5-14400T (27166, 0.4% lower), and Intel Core i7-1370P (26900, 0.6% higher) would all behave nearly identically in Evolve. Any of these CPUs paired with an RTX 4080 would produce similar FPS results, as the GPU remains the dominant factor.

For the GPU, the RTX 4080 SUPER is the closest match at 54209, just 0.1% higher than the RTX 4080’s 54247. Swapping to the SUPER would yield imperceptible differences in Evolve’s frame rates. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X (54828, 1.1% lower) and Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB (55698, 2.6% lower) are also close, though the latter’s lower score suggests a slightly reduced performance ceiling at 4K Ultra. The Radeon 8060S (55757, 2.7% lower) is the weakest of the group but still within a small margin.

In practice, any of these CPU-GPU pairings would maintain the same playable settings at 1080p and 1440p, with 4K High remaining the recommended preset. The differences among rivals are so small that users would not notice them outside of synthetic benchmarks.
