Fivem

Fivem running on an Intel Core i5-12400F paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is, according to the measured data in this database, a pairing that comfortably clears the playable threshold at every tested resolution and every preset — including Ultra at 4K, where the average sits at exactly 60 FPS. What makes this combo curious is the imbalance: a six-core, twelve-thread Alder Lake CPU sitting in the 73rd percentile of all tested processors, feeding a GPU in the 86th percentile. The question worth investigating is whether the CPU ever becomes the limiter, and the scaling data below offers some clues.

Measured FPS Breakdown

Starting at 1920x1080, the numbers are unambiguous. Low settings average 307 FPS, Medium averages 263 FPS with a recorded minimum of 223 and a maximum of 302, High averages 210 FPS, and Ultra averages 163 FPS. Even the worst recorded frame rate in the entire dataset — the Medium-preset minimum of 223 at 1080p — is more than three times the 60 FPS playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, the averages step down as expected: Low delivers 219 FPS, Medium 173 FPS (minimum 147, maximum 199), High 138 FPS, and Ultra 107 FPS. The Medium-preset minimum of 147 FPS is the figure that matters for consistency-minded players; it means the 1%-style lows, at least at the Medium preset where min/max data was captured, stay well above 144 — territory where a high-refresh monitor is genuinely fed rather than starved.

At 3840x2160, the margin narrows but holds. Low averages 122 FPS, Medium 96 FPS (minimum 82, maximum 110), High averages 77 FPS, and Ultra averages exactly 60 FPS — right on the playable threshold with zero headroom. Note that min/max data was captured only at the Medium preset for each resolution; the other rows carry averages only, so frame-time consistency at Ultra 4K is the one place where the data cannot confirm smoothness despite the passing average.

The three Medium-preset rows give a clean scaling ladder: 263 to 173 to 96 average FPS as resolution climbs from 1080p to 1440p to 4K, with minimums of 223, 147, and 82 respectively.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions tells the story here. Dropping from 4K to 1440p at Medium lifts the average from 96 to 173 FPS — an increase of 80% — and dropping further to 1080p reaches 263 FPS, nearly triple the 4K figure. That kind of steep, near-proportional resolution sensitivity is the signature of a GPU-bound scenario: if the Core i5-12400F were the ceiling, frame rates would flatten as resolution fell, but they do not. Even at 1080p, going from Medium (263 FPS) to Low (307 FPS) still buys a meaningful jump, suggesting the RTX 4080 remains the constraint at every tested setting combination.

That said, the CPU is no slouch for this workload. The i5-12400F posts a single-thread score of 909 in 3DMark and 3481 in Passmark single-thread, alongside a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12380 — figures consistent with its 73rd-percentile standing among all CPUs. Fivem, as a multiplayer title built on a 2017-era foundation, leans on fast single-threaded performance for game logic and network handling, and the 12400F's boost clock of 4.40 GHz across its 6 cores and 12 threads appears sufficient: the Medium-preset minimums of 223 FPS at 1080p and 82 FPS at 4K show the processor never drags the floor below the threshold in the captured data.

The GPU side explains the headroom. The RTX 4080's AD103 chip on TSMC's 5 nm node delivers 48.74 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput through 9728 shading units, with 16 GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus providing 716.8 GB/s of bandwidth. A Passmark G3D score of 34457 and an 86th-percentile ranking among all GPUs frame this as a high-end card, and the measured results — Ultra at 107 FPS at 1440p — are consistent with that standing.

FAQ

Q: Can this setup run Fivem at 4K Ultra?

A: Yes, but only just. The measured average is exactly 60 FPS, which meets the playable threshold with no margin. Medium at 4K, at 96 FPS average with an 82 FPS minimum, is the safer 4K choice.

Q: What frame rate should I expect at 1440p on High settings?

A: The measured average is 138 FPS. Stepping up to Ultra at 1440p still yields 107 FPS, and dropping to Medium raises the average to 173 FPS with a minimum of 147.

Q: Is the CPU or the GPU the bottleneck?

A: The data points to the GPU. Frame rates scale steeply with resolution at every preset — Medium goes from 263 FPS at 1080p to 96 FPS at 4K — which is the pattern of a graphics-limited configuration rather than a CPU ceiling.

Q: How does the i5-12400F compare to rival CPUs?

A: Its average benchmark score of 19039 is statistically tied with the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS (19047, 0% delta), the Intel Core 3 201E (19056, -0.1% delta), the Intel Core i5-1335U (18982, 0.3% delta), and even the AMD EPYC 7773X (18979, 0.3% delta) — an oddly diverse set of neighbors.

Q: How much VRAM and memory bandwidth does the RTX 4080 bring?

A: 16 GB of GDDR6X across a 256-bit bus, delivering 716.8 GB/s of bandwidth — far more than Fivem demands at any tested resolution.

Q: Where does this exact pairing rank among tested combinations?

A: Rank 297 out of 3707 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in roughly the top 8% of configurations benchmarked for this game.

The Verdict

Yes — this PC runs Fivem, without qualification. According to the verdict data, every preset at every resolution clears the 60 FPS playable threshold: at 1920x1080 the best setting is Ultra at 163 FPS average, at 2560x1440 it is Ultra at 107 FPS, and at 3840x2160 it is Ultra at 60 FPS. All four presets — Low, Medium, High, and Ultra — are playable at all three resolutions.

The one caveat the data supports is the 4K Ultra figure itself: an average of exactly 60 FPS leaves no buffer for dips, and no minimum-frame data was captured at that setting. Players wanting guaranteed comfort at 4K should note that High averages 77 FPS and Medium averages 96 FPS with a confirmed 82 FPS minimum. At 1080p and 1440p, the question is not playability but refresh-rate utilization, with Low at 1080p reaching 307 FPS.

Similar Performance Alternatives

On the CPU side, the i5-12400F's average benchmark score of 19039 places it in a near-dead heat with an eclectic group: the AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS at 19047 (0% delta), the Intel Core 3 201E at 19056 (-0.1% delta), the Intel Core i5-1335U at 18982 (0.3% delta), and the AMD EPYC 7773X at 18979 (0.3% delta). Any of these processors would, statistically, deliver comparable aggregate throughput — though for a game that rewards single-threaded snappiness, the 12400F's measured single-thread figures remain the reference point.

On the GPU side, the RTX 4080's average score of 54247 is effectively identical to the RTX 4080 SUPER at 54209 (0.1% delta), closely followed by the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X at 54828 (-1.1% delta), the Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB at 55698 (-2.6% delta), and the Radeon 8060S at 55757 (-2.7% delta). The RTX 4080 SUPER is the natural drop-in equivalent; the deltas across this entire group are small enough that Fivem behavior should be broadly similar with any of them.

Best Settings per Resolution

• 3840x2160: Ultra, at 60 FPS average — technically the most demanding playable preset, though High at 77 FPS or Medium at 96 FPS (minimum 82) offer more margin.
• 2560x1440: Ultra, at 107 FPS average — a comfortable choice, with Medium at 173 FPS (minimum 147) for high-refresh play.
• 1920x1080: Ultra, at 163 FPS average — effectively free performance; Low pushes to 307 FPS if raw frame rate is the goal.

How This Combo Ranks

Against the full field of 3707 tested hardware combinations in Fivem, this pairing ranks 297th — a position that puts it in the top 8% of all configurations measured for this game. That ranking makes intuitive sense given the component percentiles: a GPU in the 86th percentile paired with a CPU in the 73rd produces a combo that outranks the vast majority of pairings without challenging the absolute leaderboard. The data suggests the rank is GPU-driven; the steep resolution scaling indicates the RTX 4080 is doing the heavy lifting, while the i5-12400F — a 65 W, six-core part with a launch MSRP of $174 — simply needs to keep up, and the measured minimums show it does.
