Fivem

This analysis examines the performance of the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 in Fivem, based on measured data. The combination delivers a strong experience, with the RTX 4070’s high average benchmark score of 37648 and the Ryzen 5 5500’s solid 19593 average placing this setup in the top tier of tested configurations. The data indicates that the system is capable of high refresh rate gameplay at 1080p and 1440p, while 4K remains playable at reduced settings.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 sits within a narrow performance band of its nearest rivals. The Intel Core i5-12500 posts an average score of 19668, which is 0.4% higher, making it statistically a near-identical match. The AMD Ryzen AI 5 430 scores 19617, just 0.1% above the Ryzen 5 5500, while the Intel Core i7-10700F trails by 0.5% with a score of 19499. The Intel Core i5-11600KF leads the group at 19723, a 0.7% advantage. These deltas are all within a single percentage point, meaning that in Fivem, swapping between these processors would yield essentially imperceptible frame rate differences, with the GPU acting as the primary performance driver.

On the GPU side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070’s nearest rivals are similarly close. The NVIDIA Tesla P4 posts a score of 37628, a 0.1% delta, while the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 scores 37507, just 0.4% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile is 1.3% faster at 38135, and the AMD Radeon PRO W6400 is 1.3% slower at 37157. None of these alternatives would significantly alter Fivem’s frame pacing, as the RTX 4070’s 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth provide ample headroom for the game’s multiplayer environments. The practical takeaway from the benchmark data is that this specific CPU-GPU pairing performs in a crowded field; users with any of these nearby components should expect comparable results in Fivem.

Best Settings per Resolution

The measured FPS data reveals that the RTX 4070 and Ryzen 5 5500 combination clears the 60 FPS threshold at every resolution, but the maximum quality preset varies. At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is High, with an average of exactly 60 FPS. The Medium preset at this resolution averages 75 FPS, and Low reaches 95 FPS, but Ultra drops to 47 FPS, below the playable threshold. Therefore, High is the recommended ceiling for 4K.

At 2560x1440, the system can push to Ultra settings, averaging 84 FPS. This is a significant jump from 4K, with the GPU having enough headroom to maintain fluid gameplay at maximum detail. The High preset averages 108 FPS, Medium 135 FPS, and Low 171 FPS, all well above the 60 FPS line.

At 1920x1080, the pairing is exceptionally strong. Ultra settings average 128 FPS, while High reaches 164 FPS, Medium 205 FPS, and Low 260 FPS. The 1080p resolution is clearly where this combo excels, providing smooth performance even at the highest preset. For users prioritizing maximum visual fidelity, Ultra at 1440p or 1080p is the optimal choice, whereas 4K users must settle for High to maintain playability.

The Verdict

The benchmark data confirms that this PC can run Fivem effectively across all tested resolutions. At 1920x1080, every preset from Low to Ultra exceeds 60 FPS, with Ultra averaging 128 FPS and Low reaching 260 FPS. The 2560x1440 resolution also supports all presets above 60 FPS, with Ultra at 84 FPS and High at 108 FPS. At 3840x2160, the system clears 60 FPS on Low, Medium, and High settings, but fails to do so on Ultra, which averages only 47 FPS. The verdict by resolution is clear: for 4K, use High settings for a 60 FPS experience; for 1440p and 1080p, Ultra is fully playable. The combination of the Ryzen 5 5500’s 73rd percentile ranking among CPUs and the RTX 4070’s 81st percentile among GPUs provides a balanced platform that should handle Fivem’s multiplayer load without bottlenecking at common resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a detailed view of performance scaling. At 3840x2160, the Low preset averages 95 FPS, Medium averages 75 FPS with a minimum of 64 and maximum of 86, High averages 60 FPS, and Ultra drops to 47 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 48 FPS, showing that the GPU is heavily taxed at this resolution. At 2560x1440, Low averages 171 FPS, Medium 135 FPS (min 115, max 156), High 108 FPS, and Ultra 84 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra here is 87 FPS, indicating more headroom for the GPU to work with. At 1920x1080, Low averages 260 FPS, Medium 205 FPS (min 175, max 236), High 164 FPS, and Ultra 128 FPS. The 132 FPS spread between Low and Ultra at 1080p highlights the GPU’s ability to deliver high frame rates even at lower settings, making it ideal for competitive play.

The data shows a consistent pattern: as resolution decreases, the frame rate increases disproportionately, suggesting that the RTX 4070 is the primary performance driver, with the CPU providing sufficient support at all settings. The minimum FPS figures, available only for Medium settings, show that even at the lowest recorded frame rates, the system stays above 60 FPS at 1440p and 1080p, while at 4K the minimum of 64 FPS on Medium just clears the threshold.

How This Combo Ranks

In the benchmark database, this specific combination of AMD Ryzen 5 5500 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 ranks 851 out of 3707 tested combos in Fivem. This places it in the top 23% of all configurations, which is a strong result given the breadth of hardware tested. The rank reflects the balance between the CPU’s mid-range performance and the GPU’s high-end capabilities. While the CPU sits at the 73rd percentile among all CPUs, the GPU’s 81st percentile ranking pulls the overall combo higher. The gap between the CPU and GPU percentiles suggests that the RTX 4070 is doing most of the heavy lifting in Fivem, which is consistent with the game’s graphics-intensive nature. Compared to other combos, this setup would outperform systems with weaker GPUs but would be outranked by those pairing the RTX 4070 with a faster processor, such as a higher-tier Ryzen 5000 series chip.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data reveals distinct roles for the CPU and GPU depending on resolution. At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor. The frame rate drops from 95 FPS on Low to 47 FPS on Ultra, a 51% reduction, while the CPU’s workload remains relatively constant. This indicates that the RTX 4070’s raw throughput is the bottleneck at 4K, and the Ryzen 5 5500’s six cores and 12 threads provide adequate support without being a constraint. At 2560x1440, the scaling is less severe—from 171 FPS on Low to 84 FPS on Ultra—showing that the GPU still has headroom but is becoming less of a limiting factor. The CPU begins to play a more noticeable role here, as the frame rates exceed 100 FPS on lower presets, which requires the processor to handle more draw calls and game logic.

At 1920x1080, the CPU’s role becomes more pronounced. The frame rates on Low reach 260 FPS, which is a demanding scenario for the Ryzen 5 5500. The CPU’s single-thread performance, evidenced by a Passmark single-thread score of 3058, becomes more relevant at these high frame rates, as the GPU can easily render frames faster than the CPU can feed them. The fact that Ultra still averages 128 FPS suggests the CPU is not entirely bottlenecked at this resolution, but the diminishing returns from Low to Ultra (260 to 128 FPS) indicate that the CPU is starting to limit the upper ceiling. Overall, the GPU dominates performance at 4K and 1440p, while the CPU becomes a co-equal partner at 1080p, especially on lower presets where frame rates approach the CPU’s processing limits.
