Fivem

The Intel Core i3-12100F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7700 delivers a highly playable Fivem experience across the board, with the data indicating that 1080p and 1440p gaming are the primary targets for this combination. The benchmark results, measured across three resolutions and four quality presets, show that the system comfortably exceeds the 60 FPS playability threshold in most scenarios, with the only significant exception being 4K at higher settings. This pairing leverages a strong quad-core CPU with a modern RDNA 3.0 GPU to produce frame rates that range from a low of 36 FPS at 4K Ultra to a high of 200 FPS at 1080p Low.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a clear picture of performance scaling across resolutions and settings.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the system operates at its most demanding. The average frame rate at Low settings is 73 FPS, which is playable, but the experience degrades rapidly as quality increases. Medium settings drop the average to 58 FPS, with minimum and maximum readings of 49 and 66 FPS respectively, indicating noticeable frame time variance. High settings yield an average of 46 FPS, and Ultra settings bottom out at an average of 36 FPS. The data shows a steep performance cliff between Low and Medium at this resolution, suggesting that the GPU is the primary bottleneck as pixel count and shading complexity increase.

At 2560x1440 (1440p), the picture improves significantly. Low settings produce an average of 132 FPS, while Medium settings maintain a strong 104 FPS with a minimum of 88 FPS and a maximum of 120 FPS. High settings deliver an average of 83 FPS, and even the most demanding Ultra preset keeps the average at 65 FPS. This resolution strikes a strong balance, as all presets remain above the 60 FPS playability threshold, with Ultra offering a comfortable margin.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), the combination shows its strengths. The average frame rates are exceptionally high: 200 FPS at Low, 158 FPS at Medium with a minimum of 134 FPS and a maximum of 182 FPS, 126 FPS at High, and 98 FPS at Ultra. Even the lowest recorded minimum (134 FPS at Medium) is more than double the 60 FPS threshold, indicating that the system is rarely constrained by either the CPU or GPU at this resolution. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p is a 102 FPS drop, which is substantial but leaves the experience firmly in high-refresh-rate territory.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Based on the nearestRivals data for the CPU and GPU, several alternative hardware combinations would produce similar performance characteristics in Fivem.

For the Intel Core i3-12100F, the closest performance match is the Intel Core 3 N355, which has an identical average benchmark score of 13492, showing a 0% deltaPct. The Intel Core i5-9500 is also very close, with an average score of 13452 and a deltaPct of 0.3%, meaning it is effectively on par. The Intel Core 5 120UL is slightly faster, scoring 13594, which is -0.7% relative to the i3-12100F, while the Intel Core i7-1250U is marginally slower, scoring 13351, a 1.1% difference. These rivals indicate that any system built with a similarly performing quad-core or low-power hybrid processor would yield comparable CPU-bound results in Fivem, particularly in scenarios where the CPU is the limiting factor.

For the AMD Radeon RX 7700 GPU, the nearest rival is the AMD Radeon R9 370X, with an average score of 15862 and a deltaPct of -0.1%, making it statistically indistinguishable in performance. The AMD Radeon RX 9060 is close, scoring 16014 (a -1% delta), while the AMD Radeon Pro W5500 trails slightly with a score of 15679 (a 1.1% delta). The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is the fastest competitor listed, with an average score of 16129, which is -1.7% relative to the RX 7700. In practical terms, a PC built with any of these GPUs would deliver frame rates within a few percentage points of the RX 7700 in Fivem, meaning the in-game experience would be nearly identical at the same settings and resolution.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals a clear division of labor between the Intel Core i3-12100F and the AMD Radeon RX 7700, with the GPU becoming the dominant factor as resolution increases.

At 1080p, the CPU plays a more significant role. The frame rates at Low settings (200 FPS) are exceptionally high, suggesting that the GPU is not fully saturated at this resolution. The scaling from Low to Ultra produces a 102 FPS reduction, which is a 51% drop. This large delta implies that while the GPU is handling the increased visual fidelity, the quad-core i3-12100F is still able to feed the GPU efficiently, preventing a CPU bottleneck even at high frame rates.

At 1440p, the balance shifts. The average frame rate at Low settings is 132 FPS, which is 68 FPS lower than the 1080p Low result. This indicates that the GPU is now more heavily loaded, as the increase in pixel count demands more from the RX 7700. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1440p is a 67 FPS drop (from 132 to 65 FPS), which is a 51% reduction, mirroring the proportional drop seen at 1080p. This suggests that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at this resolution, with the CPU still providing adequate support.

At 4K, the GPU role becomes absolute. The frame rate at Low settings (73 FPS) is less than half of the 1080p Low result, and the drop to Ultra (36 FPS) represents a 51% reduction from Low. The 4K resolution demands a massive increase in GPU compute and memory bandwidth, and the data indicates that the RX 7700 is the limiting factor, with the CPU's performance becoming largely irrelevant. The minimum FPS at 4K Medium is 49, which is below the 60 FPS threshold, further confirming that the GPU cannot maintain playable frame rates at this resolution with higher presets.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i3-12100F and AMD Radeon RX 7700 is ranked 1681st out of 3707 combos tested in Fivem, placing it in the 55th percentile of all systems evaluated. This rank reflects a mid-to-upper-tier standing, which is consistent with the measured FPS data. The rank suggests that while this combo is not at the bleeding edge of performance, it outperforms a majority of the tested systems.

This position is driven by the strengths of the RX 7700, which has a percentileVsAllGpus of 58, and the i3-12100F, which has a percentileVsAllCpus of 68. The GPU's percentile indicates it performs better than 58% of all GPUs, while the CPU performs better than 68% of all CPUs. When combined, the system is solidly above average, and the rank of 1681 out of 3707 is a direct reflection of this hardware pairing's capability in Fivem specifically. The ranking also implies that there are 2026 combos that perform worse, meaning the majority of systems tested will deliver lower frame rates at equivalent settings.

The Verdict

Yes, this PC can run Fivem, and it does so with strong performance at the most common gaming resolutions.

At 1920x1080, the system clears the 60 FPS playability threshold with ease at every preset. The average frame rates range from 98 FPS at Ultra to 200 FPS at Low, meaning the user has full freedom to choose any quality setting without sacrificing playability.

At 2560x1440, the verdict is equally positive. All four presets—Low, Medium, High, and Ultra—remain above 60 FPS, with the Ultra preset delivering an average of 65 FPS. This makes 1440p a fully viable resolution for this combo, with the only caveat being that the Ultra preset has a smaller margin above the threshold.

At 3840x2160, the system is only partially playable. The Low preset delivers a playable average of 73 FPS, but Medium drops to 58 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold, and High and Ultra are significantly lower at 46 and 36 FPS respectively. Therefore, 4K gaming is only recommended at Low settings for a consistent 60 FPS experience.

Best Settings per Resolution

The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS at each resolution is as follows:

• 3840x2160: Low is the only playable preset, delivering an average of 73 FPS. The next step up, Medium, falls to 58 FPS, which does not meet the playability threshold.
• 2560x1440: Ultra is the best playable setting, with an average of 65 FPS. This is the most demanding preset that still clears the 60 FPS bar, offering the highest visual quality at this resolution.
• 1920x1080: Ultra is the best playable setting, with an average of 98 FPS. This preset provides the maximum visual fidelity while maintaining a frame rate well above the playability threshold, ensuring a smooth experience.
