Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 combination delivers a playable experience in Fivem, but the ceiling varies sharply by resolution. At 1920x1080, the combo can push Ultra settings comfortably, while 2560x1440 requires a slight compromise, and 3840x2160 demands a significant settings reduction to stay fluid. The measured data shows this pairing is best suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, with 4K being a stretch goal that only works at Low settings.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that maintains at least 60 FPS is Low, which produces an average of 69 FPS. This is a steep drop from the higher presets: Medium averages 54 FPS, High averages 44 FPS, and Ultra drops to 34 FPS. The 4K resolution clearly overwhelms the RTX 4060 beyond the lowest settings, as even Medium falls below the 60 FPS playability threshold.

At 2560x1440, the combo achieves playable frame rates at every preset, but the best settings are Ultra, which averages 61 FPS. This is just barely above the 60 FPS threshold, so while it is technically playable, users should expect occasional dips in demanding scenes. The other presets are more comfortable: High averages 78 FPS, Medium averages 98 FPS, and Low averages 124 FPS.

At 1920x1080, the best settings are Ultra, delivering an average of 92 FPS. This is the sweet spot for this hardware combination, as the resolution provides enough headroom for maximum graphical fidelity while keeping frame rates well above the playability threshold. High averages 119 FPS, Medium averages 149 FPS, and Low reaches 189 FPS, showing that the CPU-GPU pair is far from maxed out at 1080p.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 combination ranks 1993 out of 3707 tested combos for Fivem. This places it in the 54th percentile, meaning it outperforms just over half of all tested configurations. The ranking reflects a mid-tier position, which aligns with the measured performance: strong at 1080p, adequate at 1440p, and weak at 4K.

The CPU itself sits in the 77th percentile among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 24964. The GPU, meanwhile, is in the 61st percentile among all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 17639. The combination of a high-percentile CPU with a mid-percentile GPU explains why the combo ranks slightly above average — the processor has headroom to spare, but the graphics card becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

3840x2160 (4K):

• Low: average 69 FPS
• Medium: average 54 FPS, minimum 46 FPS, maximum 63 FPS
• High: average 44 FPS
• Ultra: average 34 FPS

The 4K results show a clear linear degradation as settings increase. The gap between Low and Medium is 15 FPS, while the gap between Medium and High is 10 FPS, and between High and Ultra is another 10 FPS. This consistent drop indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at this resolution, with each graphical step costing a predictable amount of performance.

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Low: average 124 FPS
• Medium: average 98 FPS, minimum 83 FPS, maximum 113 FPS
• High: average 78 FPS
• Ultra: average 61 FPS

At 1440p, the scaling is steeper. The jump from Low to Medium costs 26 FPS, from Medium to High costs 20 FPS, and from High to Ultra costs 17 FPS. The minimum frame rate at Medium (83 FPS) is still comfortably above the playability threshold, but the Ultra minimum would likely dip closer to the 60 FPS boundary in busy scenes.

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Low: average 189 FPS
• Medium: average 149 FPS, minimum 127 FPS, maximum 171 FPS
• High: average 119 FPS
• Ultra: average 92 FPS

The 1080p results show the widest spread, with a 97 FPS difference between Low and Ultra. The Medium preset's minimum of 127 FPS indicates that even in the most demanding moments, the combo never drops below a highly playable level. The Ultra preset's 92 FPS average provides a substantial cushion above the 60 FPS threshold.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F has several near-neighbor CPUs that would behave similarly in Fivem. The Intel Core i7-11850H scores 24935 in average benchmarks, just 0.1% behind the 7500F. The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F scores 25005, which is 0.2% ahead. The Intel Core i7-13620H scores 24911, 0.2% behind, and the Intel Core 5 210H scores 24872, 0.4% behind. All four rivals fall within a negligible performance band, meaning any of them would produce nearly identical frame rates when paired with the RTX 4060.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 has more distant rivals. The AMD Radeon HD 7790 scores 17666, 0.2% higher. The AMD Radeon 780M scores 17588, 0.3% lower. The AMD Radeon Pro 560 scores 17551, 0.5% lower, and the AMD Radeon Pro 460 scores 17509, 0.7% lower. These delta percentages are small enough that users upgrading from any of these GPUs to the RTX 4060 would see almost identical Fivem performance, though the architectural differences could manifest in other games.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals a clear division of labor between the CPU and GPU at different resolutions. At 3840x2160, the GPU is overwhelmingly the limiting factor. The frame rate drops by 35 FPS going from Low to Ultra, while the CPU's high single-thread performance (3218 in Cinebench R23 single-core) is irrelevant because the graphics card cannot keep up with the pixel workload. The Ryzen 5 7500F's 6 cores and 12 threads are more than sufficient for Fivem's multiplayer demands at 4K, but the RTX 4060's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 272.0 GB/s bandwidth are stretched thin.

At 2560x1440, the balance shifts. The 63 FPS gap between Low and Ultra shows that both components are being exercised. The GPU is still the primary constraint, but the CPU's contribution becomes more noticeable. The Ryzen 5 7500F's boost clock of 5.00 GHz helps maintain frame pacing in busy multiplayer scenarios, while the RTX 4060's 3072 shading units handle the increased pixel count.

At 1920x1080, the CPU becomes more relevant relative to the GPU. The 97 FPS spread between Low and Ultra suggests that the GPU is still the bottleneck, but the CPU has enough headroom to push frame rates into the 180+ range at Low settings. The Ryzen 5 7500F's 32 MB of shared L3 cache and 83.2 GB/s memory bandwidth help feed the GPU efficiently, while the RTX 4060's 15.11 TFLOPS of FP32 performance is sufficient for 1080p Ultra without breaking a sweat.

The scaling between resolutions reinforces this analysis. Going from 1080p to 1440p at Ultra costs 31 FPS (92 to 61), while going from 1440p to 4K at Ultra costs 27 FPS (61 to 34). This roughly linear scaling suggests that the GPU is the dominant factor across all resolutions, but the CPU's strong benchmark scores (22799 in Cinebench R23 multi-core) ensure it never becomes the limiting component in Fivem's multiplayer environments.
