Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X paired with the Intel Arc B390 presents a stark performance imbalance in Fivem. The recorded data shows that this combination is only capable of delivering a consistently playable experience at 1080p, with the 4K and 1440p resolutions failing to reach the 60 FPS threshold on any tested preset. The bottleneck is clearly the integrated graphics solution, which ranks in the 9th percentile of all GPUs, while the 16-core CPU remains largely underutilized in this title.

Best Settings per Resolution

The database measurements indicate that the playable threshold for this analysis is 60 FPS. Based on the recorded data, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS average at each resolution is as follows:

At 1920x1080, the Medium preset is the highest quality setting that maintains an average of 70 FPS. This is the only resolution where the combination achieves a playable frame rate on a preset above Low. The Low preset at this resolution delivers 88 FPS average, but Medium is the best visual quality option that still clears the 60 FPS bar.

At 2560x1440, no preset achieves the 60 FPS average threshold. The closest option is the Low preset, which produces an average of 58 FPS. While this is close to the target, it falls short, and the verdict data confirms that no playable settings exist at this resolution.

At 3840x2160, the situation is more severe. The Low preset yields only 32 FPS average, which is less than half of the required threshold. No preset at this resolution is considered playable according to the recorded measurements.

FAQ

A: The combo ranks 3294 out of 3707 tested combinations in the database, placing it in the bottom 11% of tested hardware configurations for this game.

Q: What is the best frame rate recorded at 1080p Medium settings?

A: The Medium preset at 1920x1080 records an average of 70 FPS, with a minimum of 59 FPS and a maximum of 80 FPS. This is the best playable configuration with the highest quality preset.

Q: What is the average FPS on the Ultra preset at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, the Low preset records the highest average at 58 FPS. The Medium preset averages 46 FPS with a minimum of 39 FPS and a maximum of 53 FPS, the High preset averages 37 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 29 FPS.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database contains recorded average frame rates for each resolution and preset combination. Where available, minimum and maximum values are also included.

At 1920x1080, the Low preset delivers an average of 88 FPS. The Medium preset averages 70 FPS, with a recorded minimum of 59 FPS and a maximum of 80 FPS. The High preset averages 56 FPS, and the Ultra preset drops to 43 FPS average.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 58 FPS. The Medium preset records an average of 46 FPS, with a minimum of 39 FPS and a maximum of 53 FPS. The High preset averages 37 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 29 FPS.

At 3840x2160 the Low preset averages 32 FPS. The Medium preset averages 25 FPS, with a minimum of 22 FPS and a maximum of 29 FPS. The High preset averages 20 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 16 FPS.

The data indicates a consistent pattern: each step up in resolution reduces the average frame rate substantially, and the gap between Low and Ultra presets widens as resolution increases. At 1080p Low, the spread from Ultra to Low is 45 FPS, while at 4K the spread narrows to 16 FPS, showing that resolution scaling has a more pronounced effect on this GPU than settings scaling.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and Intel Arc B390 ranks 3294 out of 3707 tested combinations in Fivem. This places the system in the bottom 11% of all tested hardware configurations, which aligns with the GPU's low percentile placement.

The CPU itself is a high-end part: it sits in the 91st percentile of all CPUs and has an average benchmark score of 51947. Its nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Core Ultra 5 235HX with an average score of 52073, which is 0.2% higher, the AMD EPYC 8124P at 52121, which is 0.3% higher, the Intel Core i9-13900F at 51730, which is 0.4% lower, and the Intel Core i7-14700 at 52301, which is 0.7% higher. These deltas are all within 1%, meaning the processor is performing exactly as expected for its class.

The GPU, however, is the dominant constraint. The Intel Arc B390 scores 1482 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test and sits in the 9th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are all legacy NVIDIA parts: the GeForce GT 520MX (1463, 1.3% slower), the GeForce 800M (1460, 1.5% slower), the GeForce GT 625 OEM (1446, 2.5% slower), and the GeForce GT 710 (1443, 2.7% slower). The Arc B390 is faster than all of these, but only marginally, which explains why the combo struggles to maintain playable frame rates at higher resolutions.

The ranking data shows that despite having one of the strongest consumer CPUs ever recorded in the database, the system's overall position in Fivem is dragged down by the integrated graphics. The CPU's 16 cores and 32 threads are irrelevant when the GPU cannot render frames fast enough.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For users looking at the CPU side, the Ryzen 9 5950X performs within 1% of several other processors. The Intel Core Ultra 5 235HX, AMD EPYC 8124P, Intel Core i9-13900F, and Intel Core i7-14700 all produce average benchmark scores within 0.7% of the Ryzen 9 5950X. In Fivem, swapping the CPU for any of these would have a negligible impact on frame rates, as the GPU is the limiting factor.

On the GPU side, the Intel Arc B390's nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX, GeForce 800M, GeForce GT 625 OEM, and GeForce GT 710. The performance deltas are tiny: the Arc B390 is between 1.3% and 2.7% faster than these parts. In practical terms, any of these GPUs would produce nearly identical frame rates in Fivem, meaning the overall experience would be equally constrained at 1080p Medium as the best playable setting.

The data suggests that the GPU tier is the deciding factor for this game. A system with a Ryzen 9 5950X and any of the GPUs in this performance bracket would likely see the same 70 FPS average at 1080p Medium, the same inability to reach 60 FPS at 1440p, and the same sub-35 FPS results at 4K.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows that this PC can run Fivem, but only under specific conditions. According to the verdict by resolution, the system has playable settings only at 1920x1080, where the Low and Medium presets both exceed 60 FPS average. The best settings at this resolution are Medium with an average of 70 FPS.

At 2560x1440, there are no playable settings. The closest option, Low, averages 58 FPS, which is 2 FPS short of the 60 FPS threshold. At 3840x2160, the situation is untenable, with the best preset (Low) averaging only 32 FPS.

The primary takeaway is that this hardware combination is suitable for 1080p gaming in Fivem at Medium quality, but it cannot handle 1440p or 4K at playable frame rates. The Ryzen 9 5950X is a top-tier processor, but the Intel Arc B390 is a low-end integrated graphics solution that ranks in the 9th percentile of all GPUs. The system ranks 3294 out of 3707 tested combinations in this game, confirming its position as a low-performing configuration for Fivem despite the strong CPU. Users targeting higher resolutions or higher preset quality would need to consider a fundamentally different GPU class.
