CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data indicates that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck as resolution increases, while the CPU’s role diminishes. At 1920x1080, the system achieves 143.9 FPS on Low settings, which suggests that the CPU (Intel Core i5-12400F) is capable of feeding the GPU (AMD Radeon RX 6600) enough data to sustain high framerates. The CPU’s benchmark scores, such as a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12380 and a single-core score of 1680, indicate strong per-thread performance that is sufficient for multiplayer game logic.

When moving to 2560x1440, the average FPS on Low settings drops from 143.9 to 97.7, a reduction of 46.2 FPS. This drop is primarily due to the GPU’s pixel throughput limits, as the RX 6600’s 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 128-bit bus provide a bandwidth of 224.0 GB/s, which is taxed more heavily at higher resolutions. The CPU’s role becomes less critical, as the framerate is now limited by the GPU’s ability to render frames rather than the CPU’s ability to issue draw calls.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the dominant constraint. The Low preset averages 56.1 FPS, which is only slightly above the CPU-bound performance seen at 1080p, but the gap between Low and Ultra presets (56.1 vs 25.4 FPS) highlights the GPU’s limits. The scaling between presets at 4K shows a 30.7 FPS difference, whereas at 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 69.9 FPS. This suggests that at 4K, the GPU is saturated, and the CPU has less influence on performance. The data confirms that for this game, the CPU is more relevant at lower resolutions, while the GPU dictates playability at 1440p and above.

Best Settings per Resolution

Based on the measured FPS data and the 60 FPS playable threshold, the best settings for each resolution are as follows:

• 1920x1080: The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, which averages 74 FPS. This is the maximum quality setting available, and the system has enough headroom to run it comfortably. The data shows that even the highest preset at 1080p is playable, making this the optimal resolution for visual fidelity.

• 2560x1440: The best playable preset is Medium, which averages 74.9 FPS. The High preset averages 59.9 FPS, just below the threshold, so Medium is the highest quality option that maintains smooth gameplay. This provides a balance between visual quality and performance, with the average FPS being 14.9 FPS above the playable line.

• 3840x2160: No preset achieves the 60 FPS threshold. The Low preset averages 56.1 FPS, which is the best result, but it falls short of playable. Therefore, there is no recommended setting for 4K, as the hardware is insufficient for this resolution. Users should either lower the resolution or accept sub-60 FPS performance.

The Verdict

The Intel Core i5-12400F + AMD Radeon RX 6600 can run Fivem, but the experience is highly resolution-dependent. At 1920x1080, the system fully meets the playable threshold, with all presets clearing 60 FPS. The Ultra preset averages 74 FPS, making it the recommended choice for the best visual experience. At 2560x1440, the system is partially playable, with Low (97.7 FPS) and Medium (74.9 FPS) presets above 60 FPS. The High preset (59.9 FPS) is borderline, and Ultra (46.4 FPS) is not recommended. At 3840x2160, the system cannot reach 60 FPS on any preset, with the best result being Low at 56.1 FPS.

The verdict by resolution is clear: 1080p is fully playable, 1440p is playable with reduced settings, and 4K is not viable. The data shows that this combination is best suited for 1080p gaming, where it offers a wide range of settings with high framerates. For 1440p users, Medium settings provide a playable experience, but higher presets require dropping the resolution. This system ranks 2864th out of 3707 combos, reflecting its mid-pack performance, but the measured data indicates it is a capable 1080p machine for Fivem.
