Fivem

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER lands at rank 2563 out of 3707 tested combinations for Fivem. That places this build in the lower third of the database, but the rank alone does not tell the full story. The percentile data reveals a split: the CPU sits at the 77th percentile among all processors, while the GPU ranks at the 62nd percentile among all graphics cards. The processor is the stronger half of this pairing, and the recorded frame rates confirm that the GPU becomes the limiting factor as resolution climbs.

The combo rank reflects a system that is clearly capable of running the game, but with meaningful compromises at higher resolutions. At 1080p, the recorded data shows this combination performs far above the 60 FPS playability threshold across every preset. At 1440p, three of the four presets remain playable. At 4K, no preset reaches the threshold. This pattern indicates a machine that punches well above its overall rank at mainstream resolutions, while falling short at the most demanding setting.

The CPU's benchmark scores reinforce the idea that this is not a weak processor. The Ryzen 5 8400F scores 20,851 in Cinebench R23 multicore and 2,943 in single-core, with an average benchmark score of 25,005. The GPU's average benchmark score of 18,093 is respectable for its class, but the 62nd percentile ranking shows it is merely average in the broader market. The combination works well because the CPU has headroom to spare, while the GPU does the heavy lifting in a game like Fivem.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the Ryzen 5 8400F show that the CPU sits in a tightly contested performance band. The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F averages 24,964, a mere 0.2% behind. The Intel Core i7-11850H averages 24,935, 0.3% behind. The Intel Core i7-13620H averages 24,911, 0.4% behind. The AMD EPYC 9474F averages 25,103, 0.4% ahead. Any of these processors would produce nearly identical results in Fivem, since the game is not heavily dependent on multi-threaded rendering at the settings tested.

The GPU's nearest rivals paint a similar picture. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile averages 18,159, 0.4% ahead of the RTX 2060 SUPER. The AMD Radeon Pro 5700 averages 18,189, 0.5% ahead. The AMD Radeon RX 460 averages 18,373, 1.5% ahead. The Intel Arc A770M averages 18,383, 1.6% ahead. These deltas are small enough that a user swapping between any of these cards would see negligible differences in Fivem frame rates. The RTX 2060 SUPER sits in the middle of a cluster where performance differences are within the margin of measurement noise.

For users considering alternative hardware, the data suggests that upgrading to any of these near-identical rivals would not meaningfully change the experience. The bottlenecks in this system are tied to resolution and preset demands, not to small CPU or GPU performance gaps. The 4K results would remain unplayable with any of these alternatives, and the 1080p results would remain strongly above 60 FPS.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured FPS data shows how the balance between CPU and GPU shifts across resolutions. At 1920x1080, the GPU has relatively little work to do, and the frame rates are high across all presets. The Low preset averages 158 FPS, Medium averages 128.2 FPS, High averages 100 FPS, and Ultra averages 78.3 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p is steep, dropping 79.7 FPS, which indicates that the GPU is the primary constraint even at this resolution. The CPU is not holding the system back here, as the 77th percentile ranking and strong single-thread score of 2,943 in Cinebench R23 suggest.

At 2560x1440, the GPU load increases substantially. The Low preset averages 104.2 FPS, Medium averages 80.4 FPS, High averages 65.4 FPS, and Ultra drops to 52.8 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra grows to 51.4 FPS, showing that the GPU is increasingly dominant in determining performance. The CPU still has enough headroom to feed the GPU at these settings, but the frame rate ceiling is now set by the graphics card.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the overwhelming bottleneck. The Low preset averages 59.5 FPS, Medium averages 47.6 FPS, High averages 35 FPS, and Ultra averages 31 FPS. The differences between presets compress because the GPU is saturated even at Low settings. The CPU's role diminishes almost entirely at 4K, as the recorded data shows the frame rate is dictated by the RTX 2060 SUPER's raw throughput. The pattern is clear: at 1080p the system is balanced, at 1440p the GPU takes charge, and at 4K the GPU is the sole limiting factor.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem, but the experience depends heavily on resolution and preset selection. The recorded data shows that 1920x1080 is fully playable at every preset, including Ultra, which averages 78.3 FPS. That is comfortably above the 60 FPS playability threshold. For users with 1080p displays, this combination delivers a smooth experience with no need to compromise on visual quality.

At 2560x1440, the system remains playable at High, Low, and Medium presets. The best playable setting is High, averaging 65.4 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold by a small margin. Ultra falls short at 52.8 FPS. Users with 1440p monitors should stick to High or below to maintain smooth frame rates.

At 3840x2160, the verdict is clear: this system cannot maintain 60 FPS at any preset. The highest recorded average is 59.5 FPS at Low, which is just below the threshold. Medium, High, and Ultra all fall further behind. 4K gaming on this combination is not viable for Fivem.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The recorded FPS data covers three resolutions and four presets, with average frame rates only, no minimum or maximum values reported.

At 1920x1080, the Low preset averages 158 FPS, which is the highest frame rate recorded for this combination. Medium averages 128.2 FPS, High averages 100 FPS, and Ultra averages 78.3 FPS. All four presets clear the 60 FPS threshold, and even the most demanding preset retains a 18.3 FPS margin above playability.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 104.2 FPS, Medium averages 80.4 FPS, High averages 65.4 FPS, and Ultra averages 52.8 FPS. The drop from Low to Ultra is 51.4 FPS, a significant reduction that highlights the GPU's workload at this resolution. The High preset still clears 60 FPS, but Ultra does not.

At 3840x2160, the Low preset averages 59.5 FPS, Medium averages 47.6 FPS, High averages 35 FPS, and Ultra averages 31 FPS. None of these reach the playability threshold. The gap between Low and Ultra is 28.5 FPS, and the highest recorded value at 4K is only 0.5 FPS below the 60 FPS target, making it a near miss at the least demanding settings.

The scaling behavior across resolutions shows a consistent pattern. At 1080p Low, the system produces 158 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low drops that to 104.2 FPS, a 34% reduction. Moving to 4K Low drops it to 59.5 FPS, a 43% further reduction. The same pattern holds at High settings: 100 FPS at 1080p, 65.4 FPS at 1440p, and 35 FPS at 4K. The GPU's memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s and 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM are sufficient for 1080p and 1440p, but the pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s becomes a limiting factor at 4K.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, averaging 78.3 FPS. This is the best possible experience this combination can deliver at 1080p, and it clears the threshold by a comfortable margin. Users can max out all settings without concern.

At 2560x1440, the most demanding playable preset is High, averaging 65.4 FPS. This clears the 60 FPS threshold by 5.4 FPS, which is enough for smooth gameplay in most scenarios. Ultra is not recommended at this resolution, as it falls to 52.8 FPS, below the playability threshold.

At 3840x2160, there is no playable preset. The best recorded result is 59.5 FPS at Low, which misses the threshold by 0.5 FPS. The data indicates that 4K is not a viable option for this combination in Fivem.

The recommended configuration for this system is 1080p Ultra for the best balance of visual quality and performance, or 1440p High for users who prioritize resolution over maximum settings. The 4K resolution should be avoided entirely, as even the lowest settings fail to reach 60 FPS. This combination is a solid 1080p machine with acceptable 1440p performance, but it is not a 4K solution for Fivem.
