Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is a remarkably strong combination for Fivem, ranking in the top quarter of all tested combos and delivering playable frame rates at every resolution tested. At 1080p and 1440p, this system clears the 60 FPS threshold even at Ultra settings, while 4K requires dropping to Medium settings to stay comfortably above that line. The benchmark data paints a clear picture: this is a high-refresh-rate machine at mainstream resolutions and a capable 4K performer when settings are managed appropriately.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 sits at rank 983 out of 3,707 tested combos for Fivem, placing it within the top 26.5% of all configurations evaluated. This is a strong showing for a pairing that combines a six-core Zen 3 processor with a current-generation Ada Lovelace GPU. The rank reflects the system's ability to maintain high frame rates across the board, with the GPU clearly being the dominant contributor given Fivem's scaling patterns.

The CPU itself holds a percentile rank of 75 among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 21,771. Its nearest rivals in synthetic testing include the AMD Ryzen 7 4800H at 21,749 (0.1% ahead), the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 6650U at 21,874 (0.5% ahead), the Intel Core i7-11700 at 21,891 (0.5% ahead), and the AMD EPYC 9554P at 21,899 (0.6% ahead). These margins are negligible, meaning the 5600X trades blows with a diverse set of competitors including mobile parts and server chips, but none of them represent a meaningful advantage or disadvantage.

The GPU holds a percentile rank of 81 among all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 37,648. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA Tesla P4 at 37,628 (0.1% ahead), the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 at 37,507 (0.4% behind), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile at 38,135 (1.3% ahead), and the AMD Radeon PRO W6400 at 37,157 (1.3% behind). The RTX 4070 sits in a tight cluster with these cards, though the delta percentages are small enough that real-world gaming performance will diverge more than synthetic scores suggest, particularly in a title like Fivem where the GPU's raw throughput at 1080p and 1440p is the primary constraint.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data shows a clear pattern of GPU-dominant scaling in Fivem, with the CPU providing a stable foundation but the graphics card determining the ceiling at each resolution. The scaling from Low to Ultra settings at each resolution demonstrates this: at 1080p, frame rates range from 257.8 FPS on Low to 127.7 FPS on Ultra, a 50.5% drop driven almost entirely by GPU load. At 1440p, the range is 170.6 FPS on Low down to 81.7 FPS on Ultra, a 52.1% reduction. At 4K, the range tightens to 91.6 FPS on Low and 48.3 FPS on Ultra, a 47.3% drop.

The resolution scaling further confirms the GPU's dominance. Moving from 1080p to 1440p at the same settings reduces performance by roughly 34% on Low (257.8 to 170.6 FPS), 36% on Medium (206.8 to 133 FPS), 33% on High (162.6 to 109 FPS), and 36% on Ultra (127.7 to 81.7 FPS). These consistent reductions across all settings indicate that the CPU is not a bottleneck at any point; if it were, the percentage drops would accelerate as resolution increased, since the GPU would become more strained relative to a fixed CPU load.

The jump from 1440p to 4K shows even more dramatic scaling. On Low settings, performance drops from 170.6 to 91.6 FPS, a 46.3% reduction. On Medium, it drops from 133 to 72.5 FPS, a 45.5% reduction. High settings fall from 109 to 58.7 FPS, a 46.1% reduction, and Ultra falls from 81.7 to 48.3 FPS, a 40.9% reduction. The fact that these percentages are lower for Ultra suggests that at 4K Ultra, the system is nearing a point where GPU memory bandwidth and compute limits begin to flatten the scaling curve, but the CPU remains uninvolved in the bottleneck.

The Ryzen 5 5600X's synthetic scores reinforce this interpretation. Its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 11,838 and single-core score of 1,541 are strong for a six-core part, and its 3DMark single-thread score of 917 indicates robust per-core performance. With 6 cores and 12 threads, the CPU has ample headroom for Fivem's workloads, which are typically not heavily threaded. The Passmark multithread score of 21,858 and physics score of 1,316 suggest the CPU can handle game logic and physics without interfering with frame delivery.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system delivers exceptional performance across all settings. Low settings produce an average of 257.8 FPS, which is far beyond any display's refresh rate capability and indicates the GPU is barely taxed. Medium settings reduce this to 206.8 FPS, still extraordinarily high. High settings drop to 162.6 FPS, which remains well above the threshold for competitive play on high-refresh monitors. Ultra settings yield 127.7 FPS, a figure that still comfortably exceeds 120 FPS, making this resolution a no-compromise experience where even maximum quality settings deliver triple-digit frame rates.

At 2560x1440, the system continues to impress. Low settings average 170.6 FPS, a 33.8% reduction from 1080p but still far above any practical need. Medium settings produce 133 FPS, which is ideal for 144Hz displays. High settings deliver 109 FPS, a solid figure that remains above 100 FPS. Ultra settings average 81.7 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS playability threshold by a substantial margin and remains suitable for 80Hz or 90Hz displays. The gap between Low and Ultra at this resolution is 88.9 FPS, showing that there is significant headroom to trade visual quality for frame rate.

At 3840x2160, the system's performance becomes more constrained. Low settings average 91.6 FPS, which is still very playable and suitable for 90Hz displays. Medium settings produce 72.5 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold with room to spare. High settings drop to 58.7 FPS, just below the 60 FPS playability line, meaning this setting requires a compromise. Ultra settings average 48.3 FPS, which is notably below the threshold and will feel less smooth on a 60Hz display. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a 43.3 FPS range, indicating that users must make meaningful trade-offs between visual fidelity and frame rate at this resolution.
