Fivem

Fivem, the multiplayer sandbox released in 2017, turns out to be surprisingly undemanding for a pairing like the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D — the measured data shows this combination clearing 60 FPS at every tested resolution and preset, including Ultra at 3840x2160. Across 3707 tested combos in this game, this particular build ranks 26th, which already hints at a comfortable performance story. But the data also raises questions: is the RTX 5090 D being fully utilized, or does the game's CPU-driven multiplayer nature blunt the advantage of top-tier silicon? The numbers below attempt to answer that.

Measured FPS Breakdown

Starting at the top: at 3840x2160, the RTX 5090 D delivers 147 avg FPS on Low, 116 avg FPS on Medium, 93 avg FPS on High, and 72 avg FPS on Ultra. The Medium run is the only 4K entry with frame-time extremes recorded, spanning a minimum of 99 FPS to a maximum of 133 FPS — a fairly tight spread around the average, suggesting consistent frame delivery rather than erratic spikes. That matters in a multiplayer title, where sustained lows are more meaningful than peak numbers.

Dropping to 2560x1440 lifts every preset substantially: Low reaches 265 avg FPS, Medium 209 avg FPS with a min of 178 and a max of 240, High 167 avg FPS, and Ultra 130 avg FPS. The Medium min of 178 is worth pausing on — even the slowest recorded moments at 1440p sit nearly three times above the 60 FPS playable threshold.

At 1920x1080, the frame rates climb into refresh-rate-chasing territory: Low averages 357 FPS, Medium 317 FPS (min 270, max 365), High 254 FPS, and Ultra 197 FPS. The Medium spread at 1080p — 270 to 365 — is proportionally modest relative to a 317 average, again pointing to stable frame pacing rather than stutter-prone delivery. In short, no tested configuration in the dataset falls below 72 FPS on average, and the lowest single recorded data point anywhere is the 99 FPS minimum at 4K Medium.

CPU and GPU Roles

Which component is doing the heavy lifting here? The scaling data gives a clue. Moving from 1080p to 4K on Medium drops the average from 317 to 116 FPS — a steep decline as pixel count grows, which indicates the GPU becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions. Conversely, the fact that 1080p Ultra tops out at 197 FPS, rather than climbing toward the Low preset's 357, hints at a ceiling that the GPU alone doesn't explain.

Fivem is a multiplayer game built on a 2017-era engine foundation, and such titles are frequently constrained by single-threaded CPU performance and server-side load. The Ryzen 7 7700's credentials here are respectable: a single-thread score of 1049 in 3DMark's single-thread test, 2525 in Geekbench single-core, and 1930 in Cinebench R23 single-core — figures that place it in the 87th percentile versus all CPUs in the database. With a boost clock of 5.30 GHz on its Zen 4 architecture, the 7700 has the per-core speed these engines reward.

The 3DMark threading results are telling: the 7700 scores 8484 at 16 threads but only 6933 at 8 threads and 3931 at 4 threads. If Fivem's engine leans on a handful of threads — as older multiplayer frameworks often do — the effective CPU throughput available is well below the chip's multi-core peak of 8479 at max threads. That could explain why the enormous GPU headroom of the RTX 5090 D, with 104.8 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 1.79 TB/s of memory bandwidth, isn't translating into even higher frame rates at lower resolutions.

The GPU, for its part, sits in the 92nd percentile versus all GPUs. At 4K Ultra, where it delivers 72 FPS, the card is clearly the constraint; at 1080p, the flattening performance curve suggests the bottleneck migrates toward the processor and game logic.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For CPUs, the 7700's nearest rivals in the database are remarkably close. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 sits just 0.1% behind in average benchmark score, and the Intel Core 5 221E is only 0.2% ahead. The AMD Ryzen 9 270 trails the 7700 by 0.4%, and the Intel Core i9-13905H by 0.6%. Any of these processors, paired with comparable graphics, should produce Fivem results within a hair of the numbers recorded here — the deltas are so small that run-to-run variance could plausibly exceed them.

On the GPU side, the field near the RTX 5090 D's average score of 77712 is a curious mix. The AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT averages 76904, 1.1% behind; the Radeon RX 6850M XT is 1.6% ahead at 78940; and the NVIDIA Tesla P100 PCIe variants in 12 GB and 16 GB form sit 2.1% and 2.4% ahead respectively. The presence of Tesla compute cards in this cluster is an artifact of aggregate scoring rather than gaming equivalence, but by the numbers, an RX 6850M XT or either Tesla P100 would land within a couple percent of this GPU's overall benchmark average. Whether that translates to identical Fivem frame rates is a different question — the game's CPU sensitivity means the pairing matters — but the data supports these as statistically similar performers.

FAQ

Q: Can this PC run Fivem at 4K with Ultra settings above 60 FPS?

A: Yes. At 3840x2160 Ultra, the combo averages 72 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS playable threshold with room to spare.

Q: What is the lowest frame rate recorded in any test?

A: The lowest recorded minimum is 99 FPS, measured at 3840x2160 on the Medium preset. Every other recorded data point is higher.

Q: Does the CPU or GPU limit performance more?

A: It depends on resolution. At 4K, the scaling data points to the GPU as the limiter, since Medium drops from 317 FPS at 1080p to 116 FPS at 4K. At 1080p, the flatter curve suggests CPU and game-logic constraints dominate.

Q: Which presets are playable at each resolution?

A: All four presets — Low, Medium, High, and Ultra — clear 60 FPS at 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160. There are no unplayable configurations in this dataset.

Q: How does the Ryzen 7 7700's single-core performance matter for Fivem?

A: Multiplayer titles often lean on single-thread speed. The 7700 scores 2525 in Geekbench single-core and 1930 in Cinebench R23 single-core, placing it in the 87th percentile of all CPUs — strong per-core throughput for this workload.

Q: How does this combo rank among tested configurations in Fivem?

A: It ranks 26th out of 3707 tested combos in this game, placing it in the top fraction of a percent of all measured pairings.

The Verdict

The verdict is unambiguous: yes, this PC runs Fivem, and it does so with a large margin. According to verdictByResolution, every preset at every tested resolution is playable. At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 197 FPS — more than three times the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, Ultra holds 130 FPS. Even at 3840x2160, the most demanding configuration tested, Ultra averages 72 FPS.

What the data implies, though, is that this hardware is overkill for the game in its current measured form. The RTX 5090 D's percentile standing of 92 among all GPUs, combined with the game's inability to push frame rates past 357 FPS even at 1080p Low, suggests Fivem simply cannot consume what this pairing offers at conventional settings. Players chasing higher numbers at 1080p would likely hit a CPU or engine ceiling before the GPU breaks a sweat.

Best Settings per Resolution

Since every preset clears 60 FPS everywhere, the best setting at each resolution is simply Ultra:

• 3840x2160 (4K): Ultra at 72 avg FPS — the most demanding preset still comfortably above the threshold.
• 2560x1440 (1440p): Ultra at 130 avg FPS, with High at 167 and Medium at 209 (min 178) as headroom options.
• 1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra at 197 avg FPS, with Medium at 317 avg FPS (min 270, max 365) available for high-refresh displays.

There is no configuration in the measured data where a settings reduction is required for playability. The only reason to step below Ultra is refresh-rate ambition, not the 60 FPS bar.

How This Combo Ranks

Against the full field, the Ryzen 7 7700 plus RTX 5090 D ranks 26th out of 3707 tested combinations in Fivem — a placement in the top one percent of the database. That rank aligns with the individual component standings: the CPU sits at the 87th percentile versus all processors and the GPU at the 92nd percentile versus all graphics cards.

The interesting nuance is that the combo's in-game rank (26th) reflects how Fivem rewards this hardware mix specifically, not raw component strength alone. A game this lightly threaded and this old relative to the hardware generation — Fivem launched in 2017, the 7700 arrived in 2023, and the RTX 5090 D in 2025 — compresses the differences between top-tier and merely excellent hardware. The 25 combinations ranked above this one presumably feature processors with stronger per-core results or GPUs with marginally higher averages, but given that this build already exceeds every playable threshold by wide margins at every tested setting, the practical difference between rank 26 and rank 1 in Fivem is measured in surplus, not in playability.
