Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER delivers a mixed set of results in Fivem, a multiplayer title that scales heavily with both CPU and GPU resources. The recorded data shows that this combination can handle the game smoothly at 1080p and 1440p, but it falls short of the 60 FPS threshold at 4K. This analysis breaks down the optimal settings for each resolution, the balance of workload between the processor and graphics card, how this pairing ranks among all tested configurations, and which alternative hardware would deliver similar performance.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average frame rate of 76.4 FPS. This is the highest quality setting available in the test suite, and the system clears the 60 FPS target with a comfortable margin of 16.4 frames. Lower presets also perform well: High averages 102.8 FPS, Medium averages 126 FPS, and Low averages 160.8 FPS. For a 60 Hz monitor, Ultra is the clear choice, but for a 144 Hz display, dropping to High or Medium provides additional headroom, though the data does not specify minimum frame rates, so stutter potential cannot be assessed from these measurements alone.

At 2560x1440, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is High, with an average frame rate of 67.3 FPS. This is a solid result for 1440p gaming, as it exceeds the target by 7.3 frames. Medium also clears the bar with an average of 80.8 FPS, while Low runs at 106 FPS. Ultra, however, drops to 53.1 FPS, which is below the playable threshold of 60 FPS, so it is not recommended for a smooth experience at this resolution. The data indicates a clear progression: as settings increase from Low to Ultra, frame rates decline steadily, with the largest drop occurring between Medium and Ultra.

At 3840x2160, no preset reaches 60 FPS. The best result is Low, which averages 59.8 FPS, just 0.2 frames short of the target. Medium averages 43.7 FPS, High averages 36.2 FPS, and Ultra averages 27.4 FPS. The verdict data confirms that there are no playable settings at this resolution, meaning the system cannot maintain 60 FPS at 4K under any tested configuration. For 4K users, the only option is to lower the resolution or accept sub-60 FPS performance, as even the lowest settings fail to hit the threshold.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results indicate that the graphics card is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions, while the CPU becomes more relevant at lower resolutions and higher frame rates. The Ryzen 5 7500F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on Zen 4 architecture with a boost clock of 5.00 GHz, and its single-thread performance is strong, as evidenced by a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3218 and a Geekbench single-core score of 2374. The RTX 2060 SUPER, meanwhile, is a Turing-based GPU with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and a memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s, placing it in the 62nd percentile of all GPUs.

Looking at the scaling between resolutions, the frame rate drop from 1080p to 1440p is moderate. At Ultra settings, the average FPS falls from 76.4 at 1080p to 53.1 at 1440p, a reduction of 30.5%. At High settings, the drop is from 102.8 to 67.3, a 34.5% reduction. This suggests that the GPU is heavily taxed as pixel count increases, since the RTX 2060 SUPER's raw throughput, measured at 7.181 TFLOPS FP32, becomes the limiting factor. The CPU, with its high single-thread performance, can feed the GPU adequately at these resolutions, but the GPU's compute capacity cannot keep pace with the increased workload.

At 4K, the GPU bottleneck becomes even more pronounced. The frame rate at Low settings drops to 59.8 FPS, which is only 37.2% of the 1080p Low result of 160.8 FPS. This steep decline points directly at the graphics card, as the resolution increase demands significantly more pixel processing and memory bandwidth, both of which are constrained on the RTX 2060 SUPER. The CPU's role diminishes at 4K, because the frame rate is low enough that the processor has ample time to prepare frames, so the GPU is almost entirely responsible for the performance ceiling.

Conversely, at 1080p Low, the system achieves 160.8 FPS, which is a high frame rate that stresses the CPU. The Ryzen 5 7500F has a multi-threaded score of 26825 in Passmark and a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22799, indicating it can handle the game's simulation and entity processing demands in multiplayer scenarios. At lower settings, the CPU and GPU work in a more balanced partnership, but as resolution increases, the GPU load outweighs the CPU's contribution. The data does not provide specific CPU or GPU usage metrics, but the pattern of frame rate scaling across resolutions and presets makes it clear which component dominates at each step.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database, this CPU and GPU combination ranks 2564 out of 3707 tested combos for Fivem. This places it in the lower half of all configurations, specifically around the 69th percentile of the tested set, meaning roughly 69% of all combos perform better in this game. This ranking reflects the age and tier of the RTX 2060 SUPER, which is an end-of-life product from 2019, while the Ryzen 5 7500F is a more recent processor released in 2023. The GPU's average benchmark score is 18093, with a percentile of 62, so it sits below the median of all GPUs, and this drags down the combo's overall standing.

The ranking also indicates that the GPU is the limiting factor in this pairing. The CPU alone performs in the 77th percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 24964, but the combo rank is significantly lower. This gap suggests that the RTX 2060 SUPER cannot fully utilize the Ryzen 5 7500F's capabilities in Fivem, especially at higher resolutions where the GPU is the bottleneck. For context, the combo rank is not a reflection of the CPU's weakness, but rather the GPU's inability to keep up with more modern graphics cards.

Compared to the full range of tested combos, this system is not a top-tier performer, but it is also not at the bottom of the list. A rank of 2564 out of 3707 means there are 1143 combos that perform worse, which includes older or lower-end hardware. The system sits in a mid-to-low tier for Fivem, which aligns with the measured frame rates: it is fully playable at 1080p and 1440p, but not at 4K, and the 4K failure is consistent with the GPU's performance percentile.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core i7-11850H, which has an average score of 24935 and is 0.1% behind the Ryzen 5 7500F, and the AMD Ryzen 5 8400F, which scores 25005 and is 0.2% ahead. Additionally, the Intel Core i7-13620H scores 24911 and is 0.2% behind, and the Intel Core 5 210H scores 24872 and is 0.4% behind. These processors are all within a very narrow performance band, so swapping the Ryzen 5 7500F for any of these would result in nearly identical CPU-bound behavior in Fivem. In practice, the game's CPU load would be handled similarly, and at lower resolutions where the CPU matters more, the frame rates would be effectively the same.

For the GPU, the nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile, which scores 18159 and is 0.4% behind the RTX 2060 SUPER, the AMD Radeon Pro 5700, which scores 18189 and is 0.5% behind, the AMD Radeon RX 460, which scores 18373 and is 1.5% ahead, and the Intel Arc A770M, which scores 18383 and is 1.6% ahead. These GPUs are all within a small margin of the RTX 2060 SUPER's average score of 18093, so a user with any of these cards would experience very similar frame rates in Fivem. The differences are so small, under 2%, that they would be imperceptible in real gameplay, and the performance at each resolution and preset would be nearly identical.

It is important to note that the Radeon RX 460 and Intel Arc A770M score slightly higher than the RTX 2060 SUPER, but the delta is minor, so the overall ranking and verdict for this combo would not change. If a builder already owns one of these alternative GPUs, the expected Fivem performance would be within the same range as the RTX 2060 SUPER, meaning 60 FPS at 1440p High is achievable, but 4K remains out of reach.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem at 1080p and 1440p, but it cannot maintain 60 FPS at 4K. At 1920x1080, the system is fully playable on Ultra with an average of 76.4 FPS, and all presets clear the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, the High preset is the best playable option, averaging 67.3 FPS, while Medium also works at 80.8 FPS, but Ultra falls to 53.1 FPS and should be avoided for a smooth experience. At 3840x2160, no settings achieve 60 FPS, with the best result being Low at 59.8 FPS, so 4K gaming is not viable with this hardware.

The Ryzen 5 7500F is more than capable for this game, but the RTX 2060 SUPER limits the system's overall performance. The GPU's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for 1080p and 1440p, but not for the 4K workload with 8.3 million pixels. For a builder targeting 1080p or 1440p, this combination is a practical choice, delivering high frame rates at high quality settings. For 4K, a more powerful GPU would be necessary, but within the constraints of this pairing, the verdict is clear: play at 1440p High for the best balance of quality and performance, or at 1080p Ultra for the highest visual fidelity.
