Fivem

The Intel Core i5-13400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 is a high-end combination that places near the top of the tested hardware pool for Fivem. According to the data, this combo ranks 195th out of 3707 tested combinations, placing it in the 95th percentile of all systems evaluated. The benchmark results indicate that this pairing is substantially overqualified for Fivem, delivering frame rates that exceed the 60 FPS playability threshold at every resolution and settings preset tested. The data shows a system that is not merely capable of running the game, but one that provides a significant performance buffer, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate displays even at 4K resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 195 out of 3707 tested systems places it firmly in the top tier of hardware configurations for Fivem. This position is driven by the exceptional performance of both components, but it is the GPU that carries the heavier load in this particular title. The RTX 5080's average benchmark score of 56083 places it in the 87th percentile of all GPUs, while the Core i5-13400F's average score of 25292 places it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs. This disparity in percentile rankings is notable: the GPU is significantly stronger relative to its peers than the CPU is relative to its own peer group.

In practical terms, the data shows that this combo sits 195 places below the best-performing system tested, but the gap in actual gameplay performance is minimal. The measured frame rates at 1080p Ultra settings reach 170.2 FPS, which is nearly three times the playable threshold of 60 FPS. Even at the most demanding preset tested — 4K Ultra — the combo maintains an average of 62.3 FPS, just barely clearing the playability bar. This suggests that the rank position is more a reflection of the sheer number of ultra-high-end configurations in the database than any deficiency in this particular pairing.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data reveals a clear pattern: the RTX 5080 is the dominant component in this pairing for Fivem, with the Core i5-13400F providing ample support without becoming a bottleneck. This is evident from the scaling between resolutions. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra settings is 148.6 FPS (from 318.8 to 170.2), while at 4K, the same settings range spans 63 FPS (from 125.3 to 62.3). This compression of frame rates at higher resolutions is a classic sign of GPU-bound performance — as resolution increases, the GPU becomes the limiting factor, reducing the impact of CPU-driven settings changes.

The CPU's role becomes more apparent at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low settings, the combo achieves 318.8 FPS, which is 2.5 times the frame rate at 4K Low (125.3 FPS). This substantial difference at the same settings preset indicates that the CPU is capable of feeding frames far faster than the GPU can render them at 4K. The i5-13400F's 10 cores and 16 threads, with a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, provide sufficient single-thread performance for Fivem's multiplayer scenarios, where frame times are often CPU-sensitive. However, the data shows that even at 1080p, the RTX 5080 is not fully saturated — the 318.8 FPS at Low settings likely represents a CPU ceiling rather than a GPU limit.

FAQ

Q: Can this system run Fivem at 4K Ultra settings?

A: Yes. The measured average frame rate at 3840x2160 Ultra is 62.3 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS playability threshold, albeit with only a slim 2.3 FPS margin.

Q: What is the best settings preset for 1440p gaming?

A: The data shows that Ultra settings at 2560x1440 produce an average of 113.1 FPS, making it the most demanding preset that still maintains a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS threshold.

Q: How does the RTX 5080 compare to its nearest GPU rivals in synthetic benchmarks?

A: The RTX 5080's average benchmark score of 56083 is 0.6% higher than the AMD Radeon 8060S (55757) and 0.7% higher than the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB (55698). It trails the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE (57367) by 2.2%.

Q: Is the Core i5-13400F a bottleneck for the RTX 5080 in this game?

A: The evidence suggests minimal bottlenecking. At 1080p Low settings, the combo reaches 318.8 FPS, indicating the CPU can handle very high frame rates. The CPU's single-thread benchmark score of 960 in 3dmark places it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs.

Q: What is the performance difference between Low and Ultra settings at 1080p?

A: The gap is substantial: 318.8 FPS at Low versus 170.2 FPS at Ultra, a difference of 148.6 FPS. This shows that Fivem's settings have a significant impact on GPU load even at lower resolutions.

Q: Does the system maintain 60 FPS at all tested resolutions and presets?

A: Yes. Every single measured configuration — all four settings presets across all three resolutions — stays at or above 62.3 FPS, which is the lowest recorded average (at 4K Ultra).

The Verdict

The data unequivocally answers whether this PC can run Fivem: it can, with substantial headroom. According to the verdict by resolution, this combo achieves playable frame rates at every resolution and settings preset tested. At 1920x1080, the best settings (Ultra) produce 170.2 FPS, making it ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors. At 2560x1440, Ultra settings yield 113.1 FPS, comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold. Even at 3840x2160, the most demanding scenario, Ultra settings maintain an average of 62.3 FPS.

The playability margins are worth emphasizing. At 1080p, the system delivers nearly triple the required frame rate at Ultra settings. At 1440p, it provides almost double the threshold. At 4K, it just barely clears the bar at Ultra, but dropping to High settings increases the average to 78 FPS, providing a more comfortable cushion. The data indicates that this system is overbuilt for Fivem at 1080p and 1440p, and at 4K it offers a choice between visually maximal settings at 62.3 FPS or slightly lower settings for higher frame rates.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the CPU and GPU provide context for what other hardware would deliver similar performance. For the Core i5-13400F, the closest matches in average benchmark score are the AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS (25284, 0% delta), the Intel Core 5 120 (25362, -0.3% delta), and the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X3D (25365, -0.3% delta). These CPUs would behave nearly identically in Fivem, assuming the GPU remains the same.

For the RTX 5080, the nearest GPU rivals are the AMD Radeon 8060S (55757, 0.6% delta), the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB (55698, 0.7% delta), and the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X (54828, 2.3% delta). The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE (57367) is slightly faster by 2.2%. A system pairing the i5-13400F with any of these alternative GPUs would deliver frame rates within a few percentage points of the measured results. Similarly, swapping the CPU for one of its nearest rivals while keeping the RTX 5080 would produce nearly identical performance, as the GPU is the primary determinant of frame rates at higher resolutions.

Best Settings per Resolution

The most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS at each resolution is as follows:

• 3840x2160 (4K): Ultra settings, with an average of 62.3 FPS. This is the only resolution where the margin is tight; High settings would provide 78 FPS for additional headroom.
• 2560x1440 (1440p): Ultra settings, with an average of 113.1 FPS. This provides nearly double the playability threshold, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate displays.
• 1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra settings, with an average of 170.2 FPS. This is ideal for 144Hz or 165Hz monitors, with enough headroom to avoid frame drops.

For players prioritizing maximum visual fidelity, Ultra is the recommended preset at all three resolutions. However, at 4K, the 62.3 FPS average leaves little room for frame time spikes, so High settings (78 FPS) may be a more stable choice for competitive play.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete set of measured average frame rates is as follows:

3840x2160 (4K):

• Low: 125.3 FPS
• Medium: 99.2 FPS
• High: 78 FPS
• Ultra: 62.3 FPS

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Low: 231.6 FPS
• Medium: 186.1 FPS
• High: 144.2 FPS
• Ultra: 113.1 FPS

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Low: 318.8 FPS
• Medium: 278.4 FPS
• High: 222.8 FPS
• Ultra: 170.2 FPS

The data shows a consistent scaling pattern. At each resolution, dropping from Ultra to Low approximately doubles the frame rate: at 1080p it goes from 170.2 to 318.8 (1.87x), at 1440p from 113.1 to 231.6 (2.05x), and at 4K from 62.3 to 125.3 (2.01x). This suggests that Fivem's settings presets have a roughly linear impact on GPU load across all resolutions. The absence of min and max frame rate data means the analysis relies solely on averages, but the consistency of the scaling indicates stable performance across the tested configurations.
