Fivem

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, no preset in the recorded data reaches the 60 FPS playability threshold. The highest average framerate at this resolution comes from Low settings at 29 FPS, followed by Medium at 23, High at 18, and Ultra at 14. Since none of these clear 60 FPS, there is no recommended setting for 4K.

At 2560x1440, the situation is similar: every preset falls below 60 FPS. Low settings produce 53 FPS on average, Medium reaches 41, High delivers 33, and Ultra drops to 26. The gap between Low and the playability threshold is only 7 FPS, but the database records no preset that maintains 60 FPS at this resolution.

At 1920x1080, the picture changes meaningfully. Low settings average 80 FPS, and Medium averages 63 FPS, both clearing the 60 FPS threshold. High settings average 50 FPS, and Ultra drops to 39 FPS. The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Medium, with an average of 63 FPS. This is the optimal configuration for a consistent playable experience at 1080p.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU and GPU each have nearby hardware that would produce similar behavior in this title. For the AMD Ryzen 5 5500, the nearest rivals in the database are clustered within a narrow performance band. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 430 scores 19617, a delta of -0.1% relative to the Ryzen 5 5500's average benchmark score of 19593. The Intel Core i5-12500 sits at 19668, or -0.4% lower. The Intel Core i7-10700F delivers 19499, which is 0.5% higher than the Ryzen 5 5500. The Intel Core i5-11600KF rounds out the group at 19723, a -0.7% delta. In practical terms, any of these four CPUs would track the Ryzen 5 5500 closely in Fivem, with differences well under one percent in aggregate benchmark performance.

For the Intel Arc B370, the nearest rivals are dramatically older parts. The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1186, a -0.2% delta from the Arc B370's 1184 average. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1190, or -0.5%. The AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1192, a -0.7% delta. The AMD FirePro M2000 scores 1168, which is 1.4% higher. This grouping indicates that the Arc B370's measured performance in the database places it in the same tier as legacy integrated and entry-level discrete graphics solutions from over a decade ago. For Fivem specifically, a system with any of these GPUs would likely exhibit similar framerate characteristics, though the Arc B370's modern API support (DirectX 12 Ultimate, Vulkan 1.4) may affect compatibility in ways the raw score does not capture.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The recorded data covers three resolutions and four settings tiers for each. At 3840x2160, the results are consistently below playable levels. Low settings average 29 FPS with no recorded minimum or maximum. Medium settings average 23 FPS, with a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 26. High settings average 18 FPS, and Ultra averages 14 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 15 FPS, indicating that this GPU is the limiting factor at 4K regardless of preset.

At 2560x1440, the numbers improve but remain sub-60. Low settings average 53 FPS. Medium averages 41 FPS, with a minimum of 35 and a maximum of 48. High settings average 33 FPS, and Ultra averages 26 FPS. The delta between Low and Ultra is 27 FPS. Notably, the Medium preset at 1440p shows a 13 FPS range between minimum and maximum, suggesting some variability in demanding scenes.

At 1920x1080, the data crosses the playability threshold. Low settings average 80 FPS, the highest recorded figure for this combo. Medium averages 63 FPS, with a minimum of 54 and a maximum of 72. This 18 FPS spread indicates that even at the playable Medium preset, frame times can dip below 60 FPS in specific moments. High settings average 50 FPS, and Ultra averages 39 FPS. The progression from Low to Ultra is 80, 63, 50, 39, a consistent step-down of roughly 11 to 17 FPS per tier.

The Verdict

The data is unambiguous for this combination. At 3840x2160, no preset reaches 60 FPS; the best case is Low at 29 FPS, which is less than half the playability threshold. At 2560x1440, the same holds: Low averages 53 FPS, but the verdict records no playable settings at this resolution. The system cannot deliver a consistent 60 FPS experience at 1440p with any preset.

At 1920x1080, the verdict confirms two playable settings: Low and Medium. The best playable preset is Medium, with an average of 63 FPS. This clears the 60 FPS threshold by a narrow 3 FPS margin, and the recorded minimum of 54 FPS means there will be frequent dips below 60 FPS during gameplay. Low settings at 80 FPS provide more headroom, but the database identifies Medium as the highest preset that maintains a 60 FPS average. For users who prioritize smoothness over visual fidelity, Low is the safer choice; for those who accept occasional frame drops, Medium is viable.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions and presets reveals which component dominates in Fivem. At 3840x2160, the average framerate across Low, Medium, High, and Ultra is 29, 23, 18, and 14 FPS respectively. The 15 FPS gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is modest, and the absolute numbers are low across the board. This pattern indicates that the GPU is the primary constraint at 4K; even dropping to Low settings cannot push the framerate into a playable range.

At 2560x1440, the settings spread widens to 27 FPS (53 to 26). The jump from Low to Medium is 12 FPS, from Medium to High is 8 FPS, and from High to Ultra is 7 FPS. This suggests that the GPU still governs performance, but the CPU begins to contribute more as resolution drops.

At 1920x1080, the settings spread is 41 FPS (80 to 39). The step from Low to Medium is 17 FPS, from Medium to High is 13 FPS, and from High to Ultra is 11 FPS. Here, the GPU is still the dominant factor, but the CPU's role is more visible: at Low settings, the 80 FPS average suggests the CPU can feed the GPU adequately, while at Ultra, the GPU workload caps performance at 39 FPS.

The resolution scaling at identical settings tells a similar story. At Low, average FPS goes from 29 at 4K to 53 at 1440p to 80 at 1080p, a 2.8x improvement when dropping from 4K to 1080p. At Medium, the progression is 23, 41, 63, a 2.7x improvement. At High, it is 18, 33, 50, a 2.8x improvement. At Ultra, it is 14, 26, 39, a 2.8x improvement. The consistent scaling factor across all presets points to the GPU as the bottleneck: halving the pixel count roughly doubles the framerate, which is characteristic of a render-bound workload rather than a CPU-bound one.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations for Fivem, this pairing of AMD Ryzen 5 5500 and Intel Arc B370 ranks 3420 out of 3707 combinations. That places it in the bottom 8% of all tested systems. The percentile data for the individual components corroborates this: the CPU sits at the 73rd percentile against all CPUs, while the GPU sits at the 5th percentile against all GPUs. The GPU is the limiting factor in this ranking.

The combination's rank indicates that the vast majority of tested systems deliver higher framerates in Fivem. The CPU is capable by modern standards, but the GPU's 5th percentile standing drags the overall result down. In practical terms, this combo is positioned for 1080p gaming at medium settings, and little else. The 3707-combo pool includes a wide range of hardware, and this pairing lands near the bottom because the GPU cannot sustain high framerates at higher resolutions or presets.

FAQ

Q: Can this system run Fivem at 60 FPS on a 1080p monitor?

A: Yes, but only at Low or Medium settings. Low averages 80 FPS, and Medium averages 63 FPS. High settings drop to 50 FPS, and Ultra to 39 FPS.

Q: What is the best preset for 1440p gaming with this hardware?

A: None of the presets are playable at 2560x1440. The closest is Low at 53 FPS, but the database records no settings that reach the 60 FPS threshold at this resolution.

Q: Is the CPU or the GPU more responsible for the performance in Fivem?

A: The GPU is the dominant constraint. The Intel Arc B370 ranks at the 5th percentile among all GPUs, while the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 ranks at the 73rd percentile among CPUs. The framerate scales nearly linearly with resolution, which indicates a render-bound workload.

Q: How does this combo compare to other tested systems in the database?

A: It ranks 3420 out of 3707 combinations, placing it in the bottom 8% of tested systems for Fivem.

Q: What framerate can I expect at 4K with the lowest settings?

A: Low settings at 3840x2160 average 29 FPS, which is well below the 60 FPS playability threshold. Medium averages 23 FPS, High averages 18 FPS, and Ultra averages 14 FPS.

Q: Are there any settings where the framerate stays consistently above 60 FPS?

A: Only Low settings at 1920x1080, with an average of 80 FPS, provide a comfortable margin. Medium at 1080p averages 63 FPS but has a recorded minimum of 54 FPS, meaning it dips below 60 FPS at times.
