Fivem

Can AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 run Fivem? The recorded data indicates this combination delivers a playable experience at 1080p and 1440p, with the 4K resolution falling short of the 60 FPS threshold across all tested presets.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database contains measured average frame rates for this pairing across three resolutions and four quality presets. All figures represent average FPS, as minimum and maximum frame times were not recorded for this title.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the results are consistently below the 60 FPS playability threshold. The Low preset yields an average of 55.7 FPS, which is the highest recorded at this resolution. Medium follows at 39.4 FPS, High drops to 32.1 FPS, and Ultra produces the lowest result at 26.1 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is substantial, with the most demanding preset delivering less than half the frame rate of the least demanding one.

Moving to 2560x1440 (1440p), the performance picture improves significantly. The Low preset averages 94.3 FPS, which is a comfortable margin above 60 FPS. Medium maintains 75.8 FPS, and High sits just barely above the threshold at 60.3 FPS. Ultra, however, falls well below playability with an average of 44.2 FPS. The transition from 4K to 1440p shows a large uplift: Low gains roughly 39 FPS, Medium gains about 36 FPS, and High gains approximately 28 FPS.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), this combo clears the 60 FPS bar on every preset. Low delivers 145.1 FPS, which is the highest measurement in the entire dataset. Medium averages 115.1 FPS, High reaches 92 FPS, and even Ultra maintains a healthy 72.6 FPS. The scaling from 1440p to 1080p is consistent: each preset gains between 12.3 FPS (High) and 50.8 FPS (Low) when moving down in resolution.

The data shows a clear pattern: this hardware pairing is progressively more capable as resolution decreases, and the preset choice has a pronounced effect at every resolution. At 4K, no setting reaches 60 FPS. At 1440p, three of four presets clear the threshold. At 1080p, all four presets do.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT sits in a tight performance cluster according to the database's average benchmark scores. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H with an average score of 29868 (a 0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS and AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS, both scoring 29955 (a -0.3% delta), and the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X at 29713 (a 0.6% delta). These deltas are negligible, meaning any of these processors would produce nearly identical frame rates in Fivem when paired with the same GPU. The 5800XT's percentile rank of 81 among all CPUs indicates it outperforms the majority of tested processors.

On the GPU side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 has an average benchmark score of 15290. Its nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 (15283, 0% delta), the AMD Radeon 680M (15270, 0.1% delta), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 OEM (15199, 0.6% delta), and the AMD Radeon RX 7600 (15171, 0.8% delta). These differences are all within one percent, so swapping in any of these graphics cards would yield essentially the same FPS results in this game. The GPU's percentile rank of 58 places it near the middle of the database's GPU distribution.

When considering an upgrade or a comparable build, the data suggests that the CPU has more headroom than the GPU. The 5800XT ranks in the 81st percentile among CPUs, while the RTX 2060 ranks in the 58th percentile among GPUs. In Fivem, this means the GPU is more likely to be the limiting factor in performance.

How This Combo Ranks

Within the database's tested configurations, this specific CPU and GPU pairing ranks 2958 out of 3707 total combinations for Fivem. This places it in the lower half of all tested systems, specifically around the 20th percentile from the top. While the combo delivers playable frame rates at 1080p and 1440p, the rank reflects that a substantial number of other hardware pairings achieve higher performance in this title.

The rank is influenced by both components. The CPU's strong 81st percentile standing helps, but the GPU's 58th percentile position drags the overall combination down. Many other tested combos include more powerful graphics cards that push average FPS higher, particularly at 4K where this pairing struggles. The 2958th position out of 3707 means roughly 80% of tested combos perform better, which aligns with the measured FPS data showing this setup is solidly mid-tier for Fivem.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem at a playable level, but only at certain resolutions and settings. The verdict data confirms the following: at 1920x1080, all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are marked as playable, with Ultra averaging 72.6 FPS. At 2560x1440, Low, Medium, and High are playable, with High being the best playable setting at 60.3 FPS. At 3840x2160, no settings are playable, as even Low only reaches 55.7 FPS.

The 60 FPS threshold is the database's playability standard. At 1080p, the user has full freedom to choose any preset, including Ultra. At 1440p, the user must avoid Ultra but can use High with a slim margin above 60 FPS. At 4K, the system cannot reach 60 FPS on any setting, so the user would need to accept lower frame rates or reduce the resolution.

For the best visual quality while maintaining playability, the data points to Ultra at 1080p (72.6 FPS) and High at 1440p (60.3 FPS). The 4K resolution is not viable for smooth gameplay with this hardware.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured FPS scaling across resolutions and presets reveals which component carries more weight in Fivem. The CPU, an AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT with 8 cores and 16 threads, is a strong performer with a 3.80 GHz base clock and 4.80 GHz boost clock. Its benchmark scores are robust: Cinebench R23 multicore reaches 23794, and single-core reaches 3359. This processing power is more than sufficient for the game's logic and physics.

The GPU, a GeForce RTX 2060 with 6 GB of GDDR6 memory and a 192-bit bus, has a pixel rate of 80.64 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 201.6 GTexel/s. Its FP32 throughput is 6.451 TFLOPS. These specifications place it as a mid-range card from the Turing generation.

The data indicates that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck as resolution increases. At 1080p, the CPU can feed the GPU adequately, allowing frame rates to scale well with preset changes: Low (145.1 FPS) to Ultra (72.6 FPS) shows a 50% drop. At 1440p, the GPU load increases, and the gap between Low (94.3 FPS) and Ultra (44.2 FPS) widens to 53%. At 4K, the GPU is clearly overwhelmed, as even Low (55.7 FPS) cannot reach 60 FPS.

The CPU's role is more evident in the preset scaling at lower resolutions. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Medium is 30 FPS, and between Medium and High is 23.1 FPS. These gaps reflect the CPU's ability to handle increased draw calls and game logic as settings rise. At 4K, the preset differences compress: Low to Medium is 16.3 FPS, Medium to High is 7.3 FPS, and High to Ultra is 6.0 FPS. This compression shows that the GPU is saturated and cannot translate higher settings into proportionally higher frame rates.

For users aiming to maximize FPS, lowering resolution has a larger effect than lowering presets. Going from 4K Low to 1440p Low yields a 38.6 FPS gain, while going from 1440p Low to 1080p Low yields a 50.8 FPS gain. This suggests the GPU's memory bandwidth (336.0 GB/s) and pixel throughput are the limiting factors at higher resolutions.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the best playable setting is Ultra, delivering an average of 72.6 FPS. This provides the highest visual quality while maintaining a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS threshold.

At 2560x1440, the best playable setting is High, averaging 60.3 FPS. This barely clears the playability bar, so users seeking more headroom could drop to Medium (75.8 FPS) or Low (94.3 FPS) for smoother performance.

At 3840x2160, no setting is playable. The closest option is Low at 55.7 FPS, which is 4.3 FPS short of the threshold. Users at 4K would need to consider a lower resolution or a more powerful GPU.
