Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 combination delivers a benchmark dataset for Fivem that is defined by exceptional headroom at lower resolutions and a surprisingly strong showing at 4K. The measured frame rates, captured across three resolutions and four presets, indicate that this pairing is never constrained by the CPU at any tested setting. The data shows a system that scales predictably with resolution, with the GPU becoming the primary performance determinant as pixel count increases, yet even at 3840x2160 the weakest preset average remains well above the 60 FPS playability threshold.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results for Fivem reveal a clear division of labor between the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080. At 1920x1080, the CPU is the dominant factor. The average frame rates range from 333 FPS at Low settings down to 163 FPS at Ultra, a spread of 170 FPS. This massive delta between presets indicates that the graphics workload is light enough at this resolution that the CPU’s Zen 5 architecture, with its 8 cores and 16 threads, is fully capable of feeding the GPU. The 96 MB of shared L3 cache likely plays a significant role in maintaining high minimum frame rates, though the data only provides min/max values for the Medium preset. The jump from Low to Medium reduces the average from 333 to 263 FPS, while the jump from Medium to High drops it further to 210 FPS. The Ultra preset, at 163 FPS, still leaves the CPU with substantial headroom, as the limiting factor becomes the GPU’s shading workload.

At 2560x1440, the balance shifts. The average frame rates compress slightly, ranging from 219 FPS at Low to 107 FPS at Ultra. The delta between Low and Ultra is 112 FPS, narrower than the 170 FPS gap at 1080p. This compression indicates that the GPU is beginning to take on more responsibility, but the CPU still has enough throughput to prevent it from becoming a bottleneck. The Medium preset shows a minimum of 147 FPS and a maximum of 199 FPS, which are both above the 60 FPS threshold by a wide margin. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p at Ultra settings shows a reduction from 163 FPS to 107 FPS, a 34% decrease. This is a substantial drop, but it is consistent with the increased pixel count requiring more GPU resources. The CPU’s role remains supportive, ensuring that the frame pacing stays stable even when the GPU is under a heavier load.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck. The average frame rates range from 122 FPS at Low to 60 FPS at Ultra. The gap between the lowest and highest presets is only 62 FPS, which is the smallest of any resolution tested. This compression demonstrates that the RTX 4080, with its 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth, is working near its limits at this resolution. The CPU’s influence is minimal here, as even the Low preset, which should minimize GPU load, only achieves 122 FPS. The scaling from 1440p to 4K at Ultra settings shows a reduction from 107 FPS to 60 FPS, a 44% decrease. This is a significant drop, but it is still above the playable threshold. The data suggests that for Fivem, the RTX 4080 is the component that determines the ceiling at 4K, while the Ryzen 7 9850X3D provides ample support at lower resolutions.

Best Settings per Resolution

The benchmark data identifies the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS at each resolution. For 3840x2160, the Ultra preset achieves an average of 60 FPS, which exactly meets the playable threshold. This is the highest preset available, so the system is fully capable of running the game at maximum quality at 4K. The High preset delivers 77 FPS, providing a modest buffer above the threshold, while the Medium preset reaches 96 FPS. The Low preset offers 122 FPS, but the Ultra setting is the recommended choice for visual fidelity, as it stays precisely at the 60 FPS line.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset achieves an average of 107 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold. This leaves substantial headroom for demanding multiplayer scenarios, which Fivem is known for. The High preset reaches 138 FPS, the Medium preset 173 FPS, and the Low preset 219 FPS. All settings are playable, but Ultra is the clear recommendation, as it provides both high visual quality and a frame rate that is nearly double the playable threshold.

At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset achieves an average of 163 FPS. This is the highest average among all resolutions tested at the Ultra setting, and it is significantly above the 60 FPS threshold. The High preset reaches 210 FPS, the Medium preset 263 FPS, and the Low preset 333 FPS. The system is so powerful at 1080p that even the most demanding preset leaves the GPU with considerable unused capacity. The Ultra setting is the recommended choice, as it offers the best visual experience without any risk of dropping below the playable threshold.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a detailed view of performance across all settings and resolutions. At 1920x1080, the Low preset delivers an average of 333 FPS. The Medium preset averages 263 FPS, with a minimum of 223 FPS and a maximum of 302 FPS. The High preset averages 210 FPS. The Ultra preset averages 163 FPS. The spread between the highest and lowest averages at this resolution is 170 FPS, which indicates that the GPU’s rendering load has a significant impact on performance. The minimum and maximum values for the Medium preset show a range of 79 FPS, which suggests that the frame time variance is moderate, but still well within the playable range.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset delivers an average of 219 FPS. The Medium preset averages 173 FPS, with a minimum of 147 FPS and a maximum of 199 FPS. The High preset averages 138 FPS. The Ultra preset averages 107 FPS. The spread between the highest and lowest averages is 112 FPS, which is narrower than at 1080p. The minimum value for the Medium preset, 147 FPS, is still more than double the playable threshold, indicating that the system has no trouble maintaining smooth performance even during intense scenes. The maximum value of 199 FPS shows that the system can push well beyond the average when the scene is less demanding.

At 3840x2160, the Low preset delivers an average of 122 FPS. The Medium preset averages 96 FPS, with a minimum of 82 FPS and a maximum of 110 FPS. The High preset averages 77 FPS. The Ultra preset averages 60 FPS. The spread between the highest and lowest averages is 62 FPS, the narrowest of any resolution. The minimum value for the Medium preset, 82 FPS, is still above the playable threshold, and the maximum of 110 FPS shows that the system can occasionally hit frame rates well above the average. The Ultra preset’s 60 FPS average is exactly at the threshold, meaning that while it is technically playable, there is no margin for error in the most demanding scenarios.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 ranks 220 out of 3707 tested combos for Fivem. This places it in the top 6% of all tested system configurations.
