Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 delivers a remarkably consistent high-refresh experience in Fivem across all tested resolutions, with the data showing that every preset at every resolution clears the 60 FPS playable threshold. This is a combo that never struggles with the game’s workload, though the scaling between resolutions and settings reveals where each component carries the load.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for this configuration in Fivem shows a clear hierarchy from 1080p to 4K, with average frame rates that range from a low of 60 at 4K Ultra to a high of 333 at 1080p Low. At 1920x1080, the results are exceptionally high across the board. The Low preset averages 333 FPS, which is the single highest average recorded in the dataset. The Medium preset averages 263 FPS, with a minimum of 223 FPS and a maximum of 302 FPS. High settings drop the average to 210 FPS, while Ultra still maintains a commanding 163 FPS average. None of these 1080p results dip below the 60 FPS threshold, and even the most demanding Ultra preset leaves enormous headroom for high-refresh monitors.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages remain well above playable levels. At Low, the average sits at 219 FPS. Medium delivers an average of 173 FPS, with a measured minimum of 147 FPS and maximum of 199 FPS. High settings produce a 138 FPS average, and Ultra still holds at 107 FPS. The delta between Low and Ultra at this resolution is substantial — a drop of roughly 112 FPS from 219 to 107 — but every setting remains comfortably inside the 60 FPS envelope. The 1440p results indicate that the RTX 4080 is still not fully saturated at this resolution, as even the heaviest preset leaves the GPU with enough headroom to nearly double the playable threshold.

At 3840x2160, the picture changes notably. The Low preset averages 122 FPS, which is still a strong result for 4K gaming. Medium averages 96 FPS, with a min of 82 and max of 110. High drops to a 77 FPS average. The Ultra preset averages exactly 60 FPS, which matches the playable threshold precisely. This is the only configuration in the entire dataset where the average lands exactly on the 60 FPS line, meaning that 4K Ultra is playable but leaves no margin for demanding scenes or multiplayer chaos. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K is steep — from 122 FPS down to 60 FPS — which shows that the GPU is the limiting factor at this resolution and preset combination.

It is notably the dataset only provides min and max values for the Medium preset at each resolution. At 1080p Medium, the frame rate swings between 223 and 302 FPS, a spread of 79 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the range narrows to 147-199 FPS, a spread of 52 FPS. At 4K Medium, the range tightens further to 82-110 FPS, a spread of just 28 FPS. This pattern suggests that as resolution increases, the frame pacing becomes more consistent, likely because the GPU becomes the bottleneck and smooths out CPU-driven frame time spikes.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearestRivals data for both components, there are several configurations that would behave in a nearly identical manner to this CPU-GPU pairing. For the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X, the closest rival is the Intel Core i9-14901E, with an average benchmark score of 37911 against the 9700X’s 37943, a delta of only 0.1 percent. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 is equally close at 37904, also just 0.1 percent behind. The Intel Core 5 211E scores 37829, a 0.3 percent delta, and the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P132 scores 37804, a 0.4 percent delta. These four CPUs are all within a fraction of a percent of the 9700X’s average score, meaning that in Fivem — which is known to be sensitive to single-thread and multi-thread CPU performance — any of these processors would deliver nearly indistinguishable frame rates when paired with the same GPU.

On the GPU side, the RTX 4080’s nearest rival is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, which scores 54209 against the RTX 4080’s 54247 average, a delta of just 0.1 percent. This is essentially the same card in terms of raw performance. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, which is 1.1 percent higher than the RTX 4080, meaning it would produce marginally higher frame rates in GPU-bound scenarios. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, 2.6 percent higher, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, 2.7 percent higher. These rival GPUs would yield slightly better FPS in situations where the GPU is the limiting factor, such as 4K Ultra in this dataset, but the differences are small enough that the overall playability verdict would remain unchanged.

A configuration using any of the four rival CPUs with an RTX 4080 would produce FPS figures within a rounding error of the measured data for this combo. Similarly, an RTX 4080 SUPER in place of the RTX 4080 would shift the 4K Ultra average by a negligible amount, likely keeping it at or just above 60 FPS. The data strongly suggests that this performance class — high-end Zen 5 or comparable Intel parts paired with an Ada Lovelace flagship — is a cohesive performance tier for Fivem.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results reveal an interesting division of labor between the Ryzen 7 9700X and the RTX 4080 in Fivem, with the balance shifting decisively as resolution increases. At 1920x1080, the CPU is the primary driver of performance. The fact that the Low preset averages 333 FPS — more than double the 4K High average of 77 FPS — indicates that at 1080p, the GPU is nowhere near its limits. The CPU’s single-thread performance, evidenced by its 3dmark single-thread score of 1280 and its passmark single-thread score of 4654, is what allows the frame rate to climb so high at lower resolutions. The scaling from 1080p Low to 1440p Low shows a drop from 333 to 219 FPS, which is a 34 percent reduction. This is a larger relative drop than the resolution increase alone would suggest, pointing to the GPU beginning to take on more responsibility at 1440p.

At 2560x1440, the roles are more balanced. The CPU still has headroom, as evidenced by the 219 FPS Low average, but the GPU is now doing meaningful work. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1440p — from 219 to 107 FPS — shows that the RTX 4080 is increasingly the constraint as settings rise. However, the fact that Ultra still averages 107 FPS means the GPU is not fully maxed out; it has enough headroom to nearly double the playable threshold.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the dominant factor. The Low preset averages 122 FPS, which is only about 37 percent of the 1080p Low figure of 333 FPS. This is a dramatic drop that aligns with the pixel count quadrupling from 1080p to 4K. The scaling from 4K Low to 4K Ultra — from 122 down to 60 FPS — shows that the RTX 4080’s compute resources are the limiting factor at this resolution. The CPU, which was providing massive headroom at 1080p, is no longer the bottleneck. The data indicates that at 4K, the RTX 4080 is working near its full capacity, particularly at Ultra settings where the average exactly meets the 60 FPS threshold.

Comparing the Medium preset across resolutions gives a clean view of the GPU’s scaling. At 1080p Medium, the average is 263 FPS. At 1440p Medium, it drops to 173 FPS, a 34 percent reduction. At 4K Medium, it falls to 96 FPS, a 45 percent reduction from the 1440p figure. This progressive degradation is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario, where the RTX 4080’s fixed rendering throughput is spread across an increasing number of pixels. The CPU’s role, meanwhile, is most visible in the gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p — a drop from 333 to 163 FPS — which is driven by the additional draw calls and game logic that higher settings impose on the processor.

How This Combo Ranks

In the broader database of tested combinations, this pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 ranks 220th out of 3707 combos for Fivem performance. This places the configuration in the top 6 percent of all tested systems, a strong position that reflects the high measured frame rates across all resolutions. The percentileVsAllCpus for the 9700X is 86, and the percentileVsAllGpus for the RTX 4080 is also 86, meaning both components are individually in the 86th percentile of their respective categories. The combo rank of 220 out of 3707 is consistent with two high-percentile parts working together without a significant bottleneck at any resolution.

The rank is heavily influenced by the 1080p results, where the CPU’s strength pushes frame rates into the 300-plus range. Combos with slower CPUs would see lower 1080p averages even with the same GPU, which would push their rank down. Conversely, combos with faster GPUs but weaker CPUs would not necessarily rank higher, because Fivem at lower resolutions is CPU-limited. The fact that this combo ranks 220th suggests that there are a limited number of configurations that can beat it, and those would likely feature even higher-clocked CPUs or newer GPU architectures that push the 1080p Low ceiling even higher.

The Verdict

The verdictByResolution data is unambiguous: this PC can run Fivem at every resolution and every preset with an average frame rate at or above 60 FPS. At 1920x1080, all four presets are playable, with the best settings being Ultra at 163 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all four presets are also playable, with Ultra delivering 107 FPS average. At 3840x2160, all four presets clear the threshold as well, but the Ultra preset averages exactly 60 FPS, which is the playable threshold. The best settings at 4K are listed as Ultra, with an average FPS of 60.

In practical terms, this means a user can run the game at maximum settings at 1080p and 1440p with frame rates far above 60 FPS, and at 4K with a locked 60 FPS experience. The 4K Ultra result has no margin for error — a demanding multiplayer scenario or a heavily populated server could push the average below 60 FPS in practice, but the data as measured shows it meets the threshold. For users who want a safety margin at 4K, the High preset at 77 FPS average provides 17 FPS of headroom, while Medium at 96 FPS offers even more. At 1080p and 1440p, the Ultra presets provide such large margins — 103 FPS and 47 FPS above the threshold, respectively — that even the most chaotic Fivem servers would not threaten playability.
