Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER delivers a wide range of frame rates in Fivem, scaling from a very demanding 4K Ultra experience to an exceptionally fast 1080p Low setup. The benchmark data, measured across three resolutions and four quality presets, shows this combination is capable of high refresh rate play in most scenarios, though the most demanding settings at 4K will require a compromise. The following analysis breaks down the measured FPS, the balance between CPU and GPU load, and how this specific hardware pairing stacks up against alternatives.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the RTX 4080 SUPER and Ryzen 5 5600 produce a wide spread of results depending on the preset. With Low settings, the average frame rate is 122.2 FPS, which is a strong baseline for 4K. Moving to Medium drops the average to 92.8 FPS, while High settings yield 76.9 FPS. The Ultra preset is the only one that falls below the 60 FPS playable threshold, with an average of 58.7 FPS. This indicates that while the GPU has substantial headroom at 4K, the Ultra preset introduces a workload that pushes this particular combination just past its limit.

The 2560x1440 results show a significant jump in performance across all presets. The Low preset averages 218.9 FPS, which is nearly double the 4K Low figure. Medium settings produce 173.8 FPS, High settings reach 137.2 FPS, and even the demanding Ultra preset maintains an average of 104.1 FPS. Every setting at this resolution comfortably clears the 60 FPS threshold, with the Ultra preset still offering a high refresh rate experience.

At 1920x1080, the performance ceiling is even higher. The Low preset averages 289.9 FPS, while Medium settings hit 261 FPS. High settings produce 209.2 FPS, and the Ultra preset still manages an average of 161.9 FPS. This resolution shows the strongest scaling, with the gap between Low and Ultra being 128 FPS. The data suggests that at 1080p, the combination of CPU and GPU is rarely the limiting factor, as even the most demanding preset delivers well over 160 FPS.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions reveals a clear shift in which component dominates the workload. At 1920x1080, the frame rates are exceptionally high, suggesting that the CPU, the Ryzen 5 5600 with its 6 cores and 12 threads, is keeping up with the GPU's output. The difference between Low (289.9 FPS) and Ultra (161.9 FPS) at 1080p is substantial, but the fact that the Ultra preset still exceeds 160 FPS indicates the GPU is not fully saturated at lower settings.

As the resolution increases to 2560x1440, the GPU begins to take on more responsibility. The average FPS drops by roughly 25-30% across all presets compared to 1080p. For example, High settings go from 209.2 FPS at 1080p to 137.2 FPS at 1440p. This scaling is typical of a GPU-bound scenario where the pixel count increases, and the RTX 4080 SUPER's 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 736.3 GB/s bandwidth are used more heavily.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the dominant factor. The performance drop from 1440p to 4K is more pronounced, with High settings falling from 137.2 FPS to 76.9 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K drops to 58.7 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold. This indicates that the RTX 4080 SUPER is the limiting component at this resolution, as the Ryzen 5 5600's single-thread performance, while adequate, is not the bottleneck when the GPU is under such heavy load. The data shows that CPU performance matters most at 1080p, but the GPU's capabilities define the experience at 1440p and 4K.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the AMD Ryzen 5 5600, based on average benchmark scores, provide context for its CPU performance. The Intel Core Ultra 7 258V has an average score of 20454, which is 0.1% higher than the Ryzen 5 5600's 20468. The AMD Ryzen 5 8500G scores 20425, just 0.2% lower, and the AMD EPYC 9454P scores 20422, also 0.2% lower. These results show that the Ryzen 5 5600 is squarely in the middle of a tight performance cluster, meaning any of these processors would yield nearly identical frame rates in Fivem when paired with the same GPU.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER's closest rival is the standard RTX 4080, which scores 54247 on average, a mere 0.1% difference. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, which is 1.1% higher, while the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, 2.7% higher, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, 2.8% higher. In practice, these differences are small enough that the gaming experience in Fivem would be nearly indistinguishable. A user with an RTX 4080 instead of the SUPER variant would see essentially the same frame rates, and the Radeon alternatives would also be within a few percent.

The Verdict

This PC configuration can run Fivem, and it does so with high performance in most scenarios. The verdict by resolution is clear. At 1920x1080, all four presets are playable, with the Ultra preset averaging 161.9 FPS, which is more than double the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, every preset also clears the bar, with Ultra averaging 104.1 FPS. At 3840x2160, the High, Medium, and Low presets are playable, with High averaging 76.9 FPS, but the Ultra preset falls short at 58.7 FPS. The data shows that for 4K gaming, users must select High or lower settings to maintain a smooth experience above 60 FPS. For 1440p and below, this combo provides a high refresh rate experience even at maximum quality settings.
