Fivem

The Intel Core i5-12600KF paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER delivers a strong performance profile for Fivem, with measured data showing the combination ranks 606th out of 3,707 tested combos in this title. The system handles the game’s multiplayer environments with substantial headroom across most settings, though the most demanding preset at 4K falls short of the 60 FPS threshold. The following analysis breaks down the measured frame rates, component roles, and comparative hardware based strictly on the provided benchmark data.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is High, which produces an average of 67 FPS. The Medium preset also clears the threshold with an average of 84 FPS, but High is the more visually demanding option that still stays playable. The Ultra preset at this resolution drops to 52 FPS average, which falls below the 60 FPS playable threshold, so it is not recommended for 4K play.

At 2560x1440, the system has enough performance to run the Ultra preset while keeping the average at 93 FPS. This is the highest quality setting available in the measured data, and it still provides a comfortable margin above 60 FPS. The Medium preset at this resolution reaches 151 FPS average, while High runs at 120 FPS average, so all four settings are playable at 1440p.

At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset is again the best choice, delivering an average of 142 FPS. This is the highest preset tested and remains well above the 60 FPS threshold. The lower presets at 1080p produce even higher frame rates, with Low reaching 290 FPS average and Medium hitting 229 FPS average, but Ultra provides the best visual quality without sacrificing playability.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data shows that Fivem’s performance scaling across resolutions is primarily driven by the GPU, as the frame rate drops consistently when moving from 1080p to 1440p to 4K at the same settings. For example, at Medium settings, the average FPS goes from 229 at 1920x1080 to 151 at 2560x1440, then down to 84 at 3840x2160. This represents a 34% reduction from 1080p to 1440p and a further 44% reduction from 1440p to 4K, indicating that the RTX 4070 SUPER becomes the limiting factor as pixel count increases.

The CPU’s role becomes more apparent at lower resolutions and higher frame rates. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the system reaches 290 FPS average, which is close to the practical ceiling for many CPU-bound scenarios. The Intel Core i5-12600KF, with its 10 cores and 16 threads, provides sufficient processing power to keep up with the GPU at these high frame rates, as evidenced by the 3DMark max threads score of 7,952 and the Cinebench R23 multicore score of 23,391.

At 4K resolution, the GPU workload dominates, and the CPU has more headroom. The difference between Low and Ultra at 3840x2160 is 106 FPS versus 52 FPS average, a 51% drop that reflects the GPU’s rendering load rather than CPU limitations. In contrast, at 1080p, the same Low-to-Ultra comparison shows 290 FPS versus 142 FPS, a 51% drop as well, but the absolute numbers are much higher, suggesting that the CPU can feed the GPU efficiently at all settings. The scaling pattern indicates that for this game, the RTX 4070 SUPER is the primary performance driver at every resolution, with the CPU providing adequate support even at the highest frame rates.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearest rivals for the CPU, the Intel Core i5-12600KF has an average benchmark score of 27,799, which places it within 0.3% of several comparable processors. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D scores 27,896, just 0.3% higher, making it a near-identical performer in synthetic benchmarks. The AMD Ryzen 7 6800U scores 27,887, also 0.3% higher, while the Intel Core i9-10900K scores 27,872, which is 0.3% lower. The AMD Ryzen 5 8500GE scores 27,712, 0.3% lower than the i5-12600KF. These delta values are all within a fraction of a percent, meaning any of these CPUs would deliver virtually the same frame rates in Fivem when paired with the same GPU.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 43,223. The closest rival is the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB at 43,262, which is 0.1% higher. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile scores 43,268, also 0.1% higher, while the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 scores 43,301, 0.2% higher. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile scores 43,667, which is 1% higher, a slightly larger but still modest gap. In practice, all of these GPUs would produce nearly identical performance in Fivem, with the RTX 4090 Mobile offering a marginal edge.

The Verdict

Yes, this PC can run Fivem with playable frame rates at all three tested resolutions, though the settings ceiling varies. At 3840x2160, the system clears the 60 FPS threshold with the High preset at 67 FPS average, and it also runs Medium and Low at 84 FPS and 106 FPS average respectively. The Ultra preset at 4K is not playable, averaging 52 FPS, so it should be avoided at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, all four tested presets are playable, with Ultra averaging 93 FPS, High at 120 FPS, Medium at 151 FPS, and Low at 191 FPS. This makes 1440p the sweet spot for the system, as it can run the highest quality settings while maintaining a comfortable margin above 60 FPS.

At 1920x1080, the system exceeds 60 FPS on every preset, with Ultra averaging 142 FPS, High at 183 FPS, Medium at 229 FPS, and Low at 290 FPS. The data indicates that the RTX 4070 SUPER and i5-12600KF combination is well-suited for high-refresh-rate 1080p gaming in Fivem, with the Ultra preset providing both visual quality and performance headroom.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the measured average FPS values are 67 for High, 106 for Low, 84 for Medium, and 52 for Ultra. The Medium preset has additional min/max data, showing 71 FPS minimum and 96 FPS maximum, which indicates some frame time variance but still within playable range. The High and Ultra presets do not have min/max data recorded, but the averages alone show that High is the highest playable setting at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the average FPS values are 120 for High, 191 for Low, 151 for Medium, and 93 for Ultra. The Medium preset again has min/max data, with 128 FPS minimum and 173 FPS maximum, demonstrating a tighter frame time distribution compared to the 4K Medium result. The other presets at this resolution lack min/max data, but the averages are all well above the 60 FPS threshold.

At 1920x1080, the average FPS values are 183 for High, 290 for Low, 229 for Medium, and 142 for Ultra. The Medium preset shows 194 FPS minimum and 263 FPS maximum, which is the highest minimum recorded across all resolutions and settings in the dataset. The Low preset at 290 FPS average is the highest absolute frame rate measured, indicating that the system is not CPU-limited at this resolution with lower settings.
