Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 delivers a solid, if not spectacular, Fivem experience across the three most common gaming resolutions. Benchmark data shows this combination is fully capable of maintaining smooth framerates at 1080p and 1440p with the right settings, but it begins to strain at 4K. The following analysis breaks down exactly what to expect from this pairing, drawing exclusively from measured performance data.

Best Settings per Resolution

For each resolution, the goal is to identify the most demanding preset that still holds an average of at least 60 FPS, which is the established playable threshold for this title.

At 1920x1080, this combo has ample headroom. The Ultra preset, which is the most visually demanding option, delivers an average of 92.1 FPS. This is comfortably above the 60 FPS target, so you can max out the game's settings without worrying about performance dipping into unplayable territory. Benchmark results indicate that even this demanding preset leaves performance on the table, suggesting the system is not fully taxed at this resolution.

Stepping up to 2560x1440, the picture changes slightly. The Ultra preset averages 57.5 FPS, which falls just below the 60 FPS threshold. The data shows that the High preset is the most demanding option that remains playable, averaging 75.4 FPS. This is a significant jump from the Ultra figure, and it offers a good balance between visual fidelity and smooth gameplay. While you cannot run the absolute highest settings, High at 1440p will provide a responsive and visually appealing experience.

At 3840x2160, the limitations of this hardware become clear. The High preset averages 43.7 FPS, the Medium preset averages 51.5 FPS, and the Ultra preset drops to 33.0 FPS. None of these meet the 60 FPS requirement. The only playable option at 4K is the Low preset, which averages 71.4 FPS. This is a significant compromise in visual quality, but it is the only way to achieve a smooth framerate at this resolution. The data indicates that this combination is not intended for high-fidelity 4K gaming in Fivem.

CPU and GPU Roles

Understanding which component is the limiting factor at each resolution helps set expectations for scaling and future upgrades. The measured FPS data across resolutions and presets reveals how the balance shifts.

At 1920x1080, the system is likely CPU-bound in many scenarios. The performance difference between the Low preset (188.2 FPS) and the Ultra preset (92.1 FPS) is substantial, but even the Low preset's extremely high framerate suggests the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU more data than it can process at lower settings. The scaling from Low to Ultra results in a 96.1 FPS drop, which is a large performance cost for higher fidelity. This indicates that the GPU is doing a lot of work, but the CPU is keeping up without becoming a bottleneck.

As resolution increases to 2560x1440, the GPU begins to take on a more dominant role. The framerate drop from Low (124.5 FPS) to Ultra (57.5 FPS) is still significant, but the overall framerates are lower, which is typical of increased pixel count. The GPU's workload is now heavier, and the CPU has more headroom to supply frames. The 67.0 FPS difference between Low and Ultra here is smaller than at 1080p, showing that the GPU is becoming the primary constraint.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is unequivocally the bottleneck. The framerates across all presets are much lower, with a range from 71.4 FPS on Low to 33.0 FPS on Ultra. The CPU's role diminishes further, as the GPU is struggling to render the vast number of pixels. The performance scaling from Low to Ultra is a 38.4 FPS drop, which is the smallest absolute difference across all resolutions, confirming that the GPU's rendering capability is the limiting factor. In short, for 1080p and 1440p, the CPU and GPU are well balanced, but for 4K, the RTX 4060 is clearly the component holding back performance.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The following is a detailed look at the average framerates for each resolution and preset combination. Note that min and max FPS data were not recorded in the fact pack.

1920x1080

• Low: 188.2 FPS average.
• Medium: 148.4 FPS average.
• High: 121.2 FPS average.
• Ultra: 92.1 FPS average.

At 1080p, performance is excellent across the board. Even the Ultra preset maintains an average well above the 60 FPS threshold, making this resolution the sweet spot for this hardware.

2560x1440

• Low: 124.5 FPS average.
• Medium: 98.0 FPS average.
• High: 75.4 FPS average.
• Ultra: 57.5 FPS average.

1440p shows a clear step down from 1080p, but the High preset remains very playable. The Ultra preset is the only one that dips below the 60 FPS line, reinforcing the recommendation to use High for a consistent experience.

3840x2160

• Low: 71.4 FPS average.
• Medium: 51.5 FPS average.
• High: 43.7 FPS average.
• Ultra: 33.0 FPS average.

4K is a major challenge for this combo. Only the Low preset achieves a playable average framerate. The data shows a steep decline in performance as settings increase, making this resolution unsuitable for high-fidelity gaming with this pairing.
