Evolve

Best Settings per Resolution

The recorded data for this Intel Core i5-14600K and AMD Radeon RX 570 combination in Evolve shows that the 60 FPS threshold is only reachable at 1080p. At 3840x2160, no preset achieves a playable average frame rate. The highest recorded average at 4K is 29 FPS on Low settings, which falls far below the playable threshold. Medium at 4K produces 23 FPS average, while High drops to 18 FPS and Ultra bottom out at 12 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the situation remains below 60 FPS across all settings as well. The best result at 1440p is Low with 52 FPS average, followed by Medium at 40 FPS, High at 31 FPS, and Ultra at 22 FPS. None of these reach the playable mark.

The only resolution where the 60 FPS threshold is cleared occurs at 1920x1080. The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Medium, which delivers exactly 60 FPS average. Low settings at 1080p reaches 77 FPS average, which is higher than Medium by 17 FPS higher than the Medium preset. High at 1080p delivers 47 FPS average, while Ultra manages 32 FPS average. The best settings per resolution are therefore Medium at 1920x1080, with no playable option at higher resolutions.

The data implies that this combo is confined to 1080p gaming for Evolve, with the Medium preset being the highest playable configuration, hitting exactly the 60 FPS average threshold.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU and GPU each have nearby hardware that would behave similarly according to the database measurements. The Intel Core i5-14600K sits at an average benchmark score of 48618, placing it at the 90th percentile versus all CPUs. Its nearest rival, the Intel Xeon Gold 5318H, scores 48698 on average with a delta of -0.2 percent, meaning the Xeon trails by 0.2 percent. The AMD EPYC 4345P scores 48470 with a delta of 0.3 percent ahead of the i5-14600K. The Intel Core Ultra 5 245HX scores 48287 with a delta of 0.7 percent ahead of this CPU. The Intel Core Ultra 7 245HX sits at 0.8 percent behind the i5-14600K with a score of 48995 with a delta of 0.8 percent.

For the GPU, the AMD Radeon RX 570 records an average benchmark score of 28766, putting it at the 74th percentile versus all GPUs. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6800M scores 28874 with a delta of -0.4 percent ahead of the RX 570. The AMD Radeon RX 570 trails the Radeon RX 6800M by 0.0 percent less than the RX 570. The AMD Radeon RX 570 sits at 0.7 percent ahead of the 570, with the AMD Radeon RX 470 scoring 28996 with a delta of -0.8 percent ahead of the RX 470. The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 scores 28421 with a delta of 1.2 percent ahead of the RX 570, which is 2.4 percent behind the Quadro RTX 8000.

In practice, this means that swapping the GPU to any of these close rivals would produce nearly identical frame rates in Evolve. The Radeon RX 6800M is only 0.4 percent faster on average benchmarks, so frame rates in-game would be indistinguishable from the RX 570. The Radeon RX 470 at 0.8 percent faster would yield a similar experience. On the CPU side, the Core Ultra 5 245HX at 0.8 percent faster could push a few extra frames per second, but the overall experience would remain within a narrow band of performance.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080p, the measurements show that the RX 570 delivers its strongest results. Low settings at 1080p produce an average 77 FPS with no min or max recorded values specified. Medium at 1080p produces 60 FPS average, with 51 FPS minimum and 69 FPS maximum recorded in the data set. High settings at 1080p average 47 FPS, and Ultra at 1080p yields 32 FPS average with no min or max values.

Moving to 2560x1440 resolution, the RX 570's performance drops noticeably. Low at 1440p produces 52 FPS average, a decrease of 25 FPS from 77 FPS at 1080p Low. Medium at 1440p averages 40 FPS with a min of 34 FPS and max of 46 FPS. High at 1440p averages 31 FPS, and Ultra at 1440p averages 22 FPS with no min or max reported for either.

At 3840x2160, the RX 570 shows its limits. Ultra at 4K averages 12 FPS with no min or max values. High at 4K produces 18 FPS average, while Low at 4K reaches 29 FPS average with no min or max reported. Medium at 4K averages 29 FPS with a min of 19 FPS and max of 26.

The data reveals a clear pattern: each step up in settings at a fixed resolution reduces the average FPS in a consistent way. At 1920x1080, Low to Medium shifts from 77 to 60, a drop of 22 FPS, and Medium to High from 60 to 47, a drop of 47. At 2560x1440, Low to Medium drops 52 to 40 FPS, a difference of 40, and from Medium to High from 40 to 31 FPS difference of 40. At 4K, Medium to High from 29 to 18 FPS, a drop of 18, and High to Ultra from 18 to 12 FPS, a drop of 6 FPS difference of 12 FPS.

The Verdict

The verdict for this PC depends on resolution and settings based on the recorded data. At 1920x1080, Low, and Medium settings and 1080p Medium settings, the combination playsable settings at 1080p reaches the 60 FPS threshold, and Medium is the best settings and 60 FPS average with 60 FPS average.
