Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 presents a fascinating study in component pairing for Fivem. The data reveals a system where the GPU is overwhelmingly dominant, yet the CPU holds its ground sufficiently to avoid becoming a bottleneck in most scenarios. This combination sits at rank 164 out of 3707 tested combos in this game, placing it firmly in the top percentile of all possible configurations. The following analysis breaks down exactly how this hardware behaves across the three primary resolutions, interpreting the measured data to show not just what happens, but why it happens.

Best Settings per Resolution

The measured FPS data shows that this combo never dips below the 60 FPS playability threshold at any tested resolution or preset. The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS at each resolution is as follows:

• 3840x2160 (4K): Ultra settings deliver an average of 66 FPS. This is the most demanding preset tested at this resolution, and it clears the 60 FPS threshold by a comfortable 6 FPS margin.
• 2560x1440 (1440p): Ultra settings achieve an average of 119 FPS, nearly double the 60 FPS threshold. This represents the highest visual quality available while maintaining excellent fluidity.
• 1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra settings produce an average of 180 FPS, tripling the playability threshold. The system has substantial headroom even at the most demanding preset.

The data indicates that at every resolution, the Ultra preset is not only playable but delivers a frame rate well above the minimum requirement. This suggests the RTX 4090 has enough raw power to push maximum settings even at 4K, with the CPU providing sufficient support to avoid dragging the average down.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame places this specific CPU-GPU pairing at position 164 out of 3707 tested combinations. This ranking places it in the top 4.4% of all systems tested for Fivem, which is an exceptionally strong showing. The percentileVsAllCpus for the Ryzen 7 5700 is 78, meaning it outperforms 78% of all CPUs in the database. The RTX 4090 has a percentileVsAllGpus of 88, outperforming 88% of all GPUs.

The rank of 164 suggests that while both components are individually high performers, the combination is not the absolute best possible for this game. This is likely because Fivem, being a multiplayer title with significant CPU overhead for managing game state and player interactions, responds well to even stronger processors. However, the gap between this combo and the top-ranked systems is likely small, given that the GPU is near the top of its class and the CPU is well above average.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a detailed look at how this system scales across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves an average of 290 FPS, Medium reaches 266 FPS (with min/max of 226/306), High hits 232 FPS, and Ultra drops to 180 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra shows a 37.9% reduction in frame rate, which is a relatively modest penalty for the visual quality increase.

At 2560x1440, the averages are 242 FPS for Low, 191 FPS for Medium (min/max 163/220), 153 FPS for High, and 119 FPS for Ultra. The drop from Low to Ultra here is 50.8%, indicating that resolution scaling has a more pronounced effect than settings scaling at this level. The minimum FPS of 163 at Medium settings is still more than 2.7 times the playability threshold.

At 3840x2160, the data shows 135 FPS for Low, 106 FPS for Medium (min/max 90/122), 85 FPS for High, and 66 FPS for Ultra. The reduction from Low to Ultra is 51.1%, nearly identical to the 1440p scaling. Notably, the minimum FPS at 4K Medium is 90, which is still 50% above the playability threshold. The minimum FPS data points are only available for Medium settings at each resolution, but the pattern suggests that frame time consistency remains strong even at higher resolutions.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearestRivals data for the CPU and GPU provides insight into what other hardware would deliver similar performance. For the AMD Ryzen 7 5700, the closest matches in average benchmark score are the Intel Xeon D-2752TER (0.1% slower), AMD Ryzen 5 7640U (0.1% faster), AMD Ryzen 5 6600H (0.1% slower), and AMD Ryzen 7 5825U (0.3% faster). These deltas are so small that any of these CPUs would produce virtually identical frame rates in Fivem when paired with the RTX 4090.

For the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090, the nearest rivals by average benchmark score are the Intel Arc Pro A60 (0% difference), AMD Radeon Pro Vega 48 (0.3% slower), AMD Radeon Pro W6600M (2.5% faster), and AMD Radeon PRO V710 (2.9% slower). The Intel Arc Pro A60 is essentially a perfect match in terms of overall benchmark performance, while the others deviate by less than 3%.

This data suggests that a system with any of these alternative CPUs or GPUs would behave nearly identically in Fivem. The performance differences are within the margin of error for benchmark testing, meaning users with these components should expect the same playability at all resolutions and presets.

The Verdict

The verdictByResolution data is unambiguous: this system can run Fivem at playable frame rates at every resolution and preset combination tested. At 3840x2160, all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are playable, with the best settings being Ultra at 66 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all presets are playable, with Ultra delivering 119 FPS. At 1920x1080, all presets are playable, with Ultra achieving 180 FPS.

The RTX 4090's raw performance ensures that even the most demanding configuration (4K Ultra) stays above the 60 FPS threshold. The Ryzen 7 5700 provides enough CPU performance to avoid bottlenecking the GPU at lower resolutions, where frame rates exceed 200 FPS. This system is not just playable; it offers a high-refresh-rate experience at 1080p and 1440p, and a smooth 4K experience at maximum settings.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals an interesting dynamic between CPU and GPU responsibilities across resolutions. At 1920x1080, the frame rates range from 180 FPS at Ultra to 290 FPS at Low. These very high numbers suggest the GPU is not the primary constraint; instead, the CPU's ability to feed the GPU becomes the limiting factor. The Ryzen 7 5700's 8 cores and 16 threads provide sufficient throughput for these frame rates, but the scaling from Low to Ultra (37.9% drop) is primarily driven by GPU workload.

At 2560x1440, the frame rates drop to a range of 119-242 FPS. The GPU is now doing more work per frame, but the CPU still keeps pace. The reduction from 1080p to 1440p at the same settings is approximately 34-47%, which reflects the increased pixel count. The CPU's role remains consistent, but the GPU's workload increases significantly.

At 3840x2160, the frame rates fall to 66-135 FPS. Here, the GPU is clearly the dominant factor, as the 4K resolution quadruples the pixel count compared to 1080p. The CPU's performance is no longer the limiting factor; instead, the RTX 4090's ability to render at 4K determines the final frame rate. The scaling from 1440p to 4K is substantial, with Ultra dropping from 119 FPS to 66 FPS, a 44.5% reduction.

The pattern is clear: at lower resolutions, the CPU plays a more significant role in determining maximum frame rates, while at 4K, the GPU becomes the overwhelming bottleneck. The Ryzen 7 5700 is sufficient for this game at all resolutions, but the RTX 4090's performance ceiling is only fully realized at 4K, where the GPU's massive compute resources are fully utilized. This suggests that for users with high-refresh-rate 1080p or 1440p monitors, a stronger CPU would yield marginal gains, while the GPU is the clear upgrade path for 4K performance.
