# Fivem Performance Analysis: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER

The recorded data for this combination centers on a single hardware pairing: an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (Zen 2, 7 nm process, 6 cores / 12 threads, base 3.60 GHz, boost 4.20 GHz) driving an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER (Ada Lovelace architecture, 5 nm process, 16 GB GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus). The CPU is a 2019 desktop part; the GPU is a 2024 release. The database classifies the processor in the 71st percentile of all tested CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17,035. The graphics card sits in the 86th percentile of all tested GPUs, averaging 54,209 points across the recorded suite.

The measured FPS data covers three resolutions (3840x2160, 2560x1440, 1920x1080) and four settings (Low, Medium, High, Ultra). All runs were recorded with V-Sync enabled. The data is consistent: higher resolutions and higher presets both reduce frame rates, and the GPU is clearly the dominant factor across the board.

Measured FPS Breakdown

3840x2160 (4K)

• Low: Average 120.8 FPS. The lowest load preset, and it clears the 60 FPS line by a wide margin. The GPU is barely taxed.
• Medium: Average 95.9 FPS. Still comfortably above the playable threshold, with a 20.6% drop from Low.
• High: Average 72.9 FPS. A noticeable step down from Medium, but still 21.5% ahead of the 60 FPS target.
• Ultra: Average 61.7 FPS. This is the most demanding 4K preset, but it just barely clears the playable threshold. The margin is narrow: only 2.8% over 60 FPS.

2560x1440 (1440p)

• Low: Average 195.3 FPS. The CPU is not the bottleneck; the GPU handles this easily.
• Medium: Average 168.6 FPS. A 13.7% drop from Low, but still extremely high.
• High: Average 138.1 FPS. The gap to Medium is 18.1%, and the headroom above 60 FPS remains massive.
• Ultra: Average 105.3 FPS. A 31% reduction from High, but still 75.5% above the 60 FPS mark.

1920x1080 (1080p)

• Low: Average 224.6 FPS. This is where the CPU begins to matter more, but the GPU still dominates.
• Medium: Average 209.3 FPS. A 6.8% drop from Low, still far beyond playable.
• High: Average 191.6 FPS. The gap between High and Medium is 8.5%, and the result is still 3.2x the 60 FPS target.
• Ultra: Average 159.9 FPS. This is the most demanding 1080p preset, but it still nearly triples the minimum requirement.

Across all resolutions, the minimum FPS values are not recorded (null in the data), so the average is the primary metric. The pattern is consistent: the GPU is the decisive component. The CPU, a 6-core Zen 2 part, feeds the RTX 4080 SUPER adequately, but it is not the limiting factor in any of the 12 tested configurations.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data shows a clear division of labor. At 1080p, even at Ultra, the system averages 159.9 FPS. The CPU is not working hard. Moving to 1440p, Ultra drops to 105.3 FPS, which is a 34.1% reduction. At 4K, Ultra is 61.7 FPS, which is a 41.4% further reduction from 1440p. The scaling between resolutions is not linear: the pixel count from 1080p to 1440p increases by 77.8%, but FPS drops by 34.1%. From 1440p to 4K, pixel count increases by 2.25x, while FPS drops by 41.4%. This indicates the GPU is the primary scaler, and the CPU overhead (draw calls, physics, simulation) is proportionally smaller.

Preset scaling tells the same story. At 4K, going from Low to Ultra is a 49.0% FPS reduction. At 1440p, the Low-to-Ultra drop is 46.1%. At 1080p, it is 29.0%. The gap between Low and Ultra narrows as resolution drops, confirming that the GPU's shading, texture and memory bandwidth are the dominant costs. The CPU is never the reported bottleneck, as even the most demanding combined case (4K Ultra) stays above 60 FPS.

The RTX 4080 SUPER features 80 RT cores, 320 tensor cores, 10,240 shading units, and 112 ROPs. The Ryzen 5 3600 has a 32 MB shared L3 cache. The pairing is balanced for 60 FPS gaming at all tested presets, with the CPU staying ahead of the GPU's output capacity.

Best Settings per Resolution

3840x2160 (4K): The most demanding preset that remains at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 61.7 FPS. It clears the threshold by 2.8%, which is tight but sufficient. The Low preset runs at 120.8 FPS, Medium at 95.9 FPS, High at 72.9 FPS, and Ultra at 61.7 FPS.

2560x1440 (1440p): Ultra is the best choice, averaging 105.3 FPS. This is 75.5% above the 60 FPS floor. High runs at 138.1 FPS, Medium 168.6 FPS, and Low 195.3 FPS.

1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra is the most demanding preset that still clears 60 FPS, with an average of 159.9 FPS. High is 191.6, Medium 209.3, and Low 224.6. Every preset is comfortably playable at this resolution.

The pattern is consistent: the RTX 4080 SUPER has enough headroom to run Fivem at Ultra settings at 4K with a small buffer, and at 1440p and 1080p it provides a large cushion above the 60 FPS threshold. The Ryzen 5 3600 does not overtax the system in any measured combination, as all twelve average FPS figures exceed 60.

The Verdict

Can this PC run Fivem? Yes. According to the recorded data, the system clears 60 FPS at every resolution and preset tested. The full matrix of resolution and preset settings all average at or above 61.7 FPS, and 11 of 12 combinations are above 72.9 FPS.

The verdict by resolution:

• 3840x2160: Playable at Low (120.8), Medium (95.9), High (72.9), and Ultra (61.7). Ultra is the best setting at or above 60 FPS, but it is a near-run.
• 2560x1440: Playable at Low (195.3), Medium (168.6), High (138.1), and Ultra (105.3). Choose Ultra for the best visual quality while staying well above 60 FPS.
• 1920x1080: Playable at all four presets: Low (224.6), Medium (209.3), High (191.6), Ultra (159.9). Ultra is the recommended setting, with a 99.9 FPS margin over the playable threshold.

In short, the 12 tested configurations all achieve or exceed the 60 FPS playable threshold. For maximum visual fidelity at each resolution, select Ultra.
