Fivem

The Intel Core i3-12100F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 580 is a classic entry-level desktop combination, and its performance in Fivem is heavily dictated by resolution and graphical preset. The recorded data shows a hardware pairing that can handle the game at 1080p with ease, but which falls short of the 60 FPS threshold at higher resolutions. The i3-12100F, with its 4 cores and 8 threads, provides solid single-threaded performance, while the RX 580, a Polaris 20 chip with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, remains a capable 1080p-class graphics card. The results are clear: this combo is strictly a 1080p machine for Fivem, and even then, only on certain settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database records FPS measurements across three resolutions and four settings levels, providing a complete picture of this combo's capabilities.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the results are uniformly below playable levels. The best case scenario is the Low preset, which yields an average of 31 FPS. The Medium preset drops to an average of 25 FPS, with recorded minimum and maximum of 21 and 28 FPS respectively. The High preset manages only 20 FPS on average, and the Ultra preset bottoms out at 15 FPS. None of these figures approach the 60 FPS playable threshold, indicating that 4K gaming is entirely out of reach for this hardware configuration in Fivem.

Moving down to 2560x1440 (1440p), the situation improves but still does not reach playable status. The Low preset produces an average of 56 FPS, which is close to the 60 FPS target but technically below it. The Medium preset averages 44 FPS, with a range of 38 to 51 FPS. The High preset drops to an average of 35 FPS, and the Ultra preset falls to 27 FPS. The data indicates that even at the lowest settings, this combo cannot consistently hold 60 FPS at 1440p, though the Low preset result of 56 FPS shows it is only a small step away.

The 1920x1080 (1080p) results are where this pairing finds its comfort zone. The Low preset delivers an average of 85 FPS, significantly exceeding the playable threshold. The Medium preset achieves an average of 67 FPS, with a minimum of 57 FPS and a maximum of 77 FPS, making it the highest setting that clears the 60 FPS bar. The High preset falls short with an average of 54 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 42 FPS. This data shows a clear performance ceiling at 1080p, with Medium being the optimal playable setting.

FAQ

Q: Can this PC run Fivem at 4K resolution?

A: No. The recorded data shows that at 3840x2160, the best average FPS is 31 on the Low preset, which is far below the 60 FPS playable threshold. The Ultra preset averages only 15 FPS.

Q: What is the best playable setting at 1920x1080?

A: The Medium preset is the best playable option. It delivers an average of 67 FPS, with a minimum of 57 FPS and a maximum of 77 FPS. The Low preset is also playable at 85 FPS average, but Medium offers higher quality while staying above 60 FPS.

Q: Is the game playable at 2560x1440 with this hardware?

A: No. The verdict data lists no playable settings at 1440p. The closest result is the Low preset at 56 FPS average, which is below the 60 FPS threshold.

Q: How does the RX 580 compare to the GTX 1660 SUPER in average benchmark score?

A: The RX 580 has an average benchmark score of 12928, while the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER scores 12986, a difference of 0.4 percent. The GTX 1660 SUPER is only slightly faster in synthetic benchmarks.

Q: What is the combo's rank among all tested configurations for Fivem?

A: This combination of the Intel Core i3-12100F and AMD Radeon RX 580 ranks 3367 out of 3707 tested combos in the database for Fivem, placing it in the lower portion of the performance distribution.

Q: Does the CPU or GPU hold this combo back more at 1080p?

A: The data suggests the GPU is the limiting factor at higher presets. The CPU's single-thread score of 893 in 3dmark is strong for a quad-core, but the RX 580's average FPS drops from 85 on Low to 42 on Ultra at 1080p, indicating the graphics card struggles with increased graphical load.

Best Settings per Resolution

The database records the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS average for each resolution.

At 3840x2160, no preset achieves a 60 FPS average. The recorded data shows no playable settings, and the best average FPS is 31 on Low, so there is no recommended configuration for this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the situation is the same. No playable settings are listed, and the highest average FPS is 56 on Low, which is just below the threshold. There is no best setting to recommend.

At 1920x1080, the data shows two playable options: Low and Medium. The Medium preset is the best settings choice because it achieves an average of 67 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS threshold while providing higher visual quality than Low. The Low preset runs at 85 FPS average, but Medium is the most demanding preset that still clears the playable bar.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database's ranking for Fivem, this combination of the Intel Core i3-12100F and the AMD Radeon RX 580 holds position 3367 out of 3707 tested combos. This places it in the bottom 10 percent of all configurations tested for this game. The low ranking is consistent with the measured FPS data, which shows the combo is only capable of playable performance at 1080p on Low or Medium settings. Many other hardware pairings in the database are capable of higher frame rates or better visual settings, which pushes this combo down the list. The data indicates that while this is a functional setup for Fivem at 1080p, it is far from the top tier of tested configurations.

The CPU itself sits at the 68th percentile among all CPUs tested, with an average benchmark score of 13494. The GPU is at the 53rd percentile among all GPUs, with an average score of 12928. These percentile values show that the processor is a relatively stronger component than the graphics card when compared to their respective hardware pools. However, for Fivem, the overall combo ranking of 3367 out of 3707 reflects the combined performance limit, which is constrained by the GPU's inability to maintain high frame rates at demanding settings.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the Intel Core i3-12100F provide context for its CPU-level performance. The Intel Core 3 N355 has an average score of 13492, a 0 percent delta from the i3-12100F's 13494. The Intel Core i5-9500 scores 13452, which is 0.3 percent lower. The Intel Core 5 120UL scores 13594, which is 0.7 percent higher. The Intel Core i7-1250U scores 13351, which is 1.1 percent lower. These processors would deliver very similar CPU-bound performance in Fivem, meaning the overall FPS would remain largely unchanged if one of these were swapped into the system.

On the GPU side, the AMD Radeon RX 580 has an average score of 12928. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Mobile at 12940, a 0.1 percent difference, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER at 12986, a 0.4 percent difference. The AMD Radeon 740M scores 12870, 0.5 percent lower, and the AMD FirePro W5100 scores 12847, 0.6 percent lower. Users with any of these graphics cards could expect nearly identical frame rates in Fivem, with the GTX 1660 SUPER being the fastest of the group by a marginal amount. The close scores across all these rivals indicate that the RX 580 sits in a tightly packed performance band, and swapping to a comparable card would not meaningfully change the gaming experience at any resolution.

The Verdict

The data provides a clear answer on whether this PC can run Fivem. At 1920x1080, the answer is yes, with the Low and Medium presets both exceeding the 60 FPS playable threshold. The Medium preset is the recommended choice, delivering an average of 67 FPS. The High preset at 54 FPS average and the Ultra preset at 42 FPS average are not playable by the 60 FPS standard, so users should stick to Low or Medium for a smooth experience.

At 2560x1440, the answer is no. The verdict data lists no playable settings, and the closest result is the Low preset at 56 FPS average, which is below the threshold. At 3840x2160, the answer is also no, with the Low preset topping out at 31 FPS average. The verdict by resolution confirms this: 1080p has playable settings, while 1440p and 4K have none. This combo is a capable 1080p gaming machine for Fivem, but it should not be expected to handle higher resolutions. The benchmark results indicate that the i3-12100F and RX 580 pairing is best suited for 1080p gaming on medium settings, where it provides a stable and playable experience.
