Fivem

The Intel Core i7-12700K paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER delivers a commanding performance profile in Fivem, with measured results indicating that this combination is far more than sufficient for smooth multiplayer gameplay across all common resolutions. The data shows a system that scales gracefully from high-refresh 1080p dominance to solid 4K playability, with the only notable compromise appearing at the most demanding 4K Ultra preset. Benchmark results reveal a clear hierarchy where the CPU’s strong multi-threaded foundation and the GPU’s raw throughput combine to eliminate any concerns about frame rate stability in typical play.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the i7-12700K and RTX 4080 SUPER produce exceptional frame rates that leave substantial headroom above the 60 FPS playability threshold. The Low preset achieves an average of 331 FPS, which is the highest measured result across all configurations and indicates a scenario where the GPU is far from being the limiting factor. Moving to Medium, the average drops to 261 FPS with a minimum of 222 FPS and a maximum of 301 FPS, showing that even at this more demanding setting, the frame pacing remains tight and consistent. The High preset delivers 209 FPS on average, while the Ultra preset still manages a robust 162 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at this resolution is approximately 169 FPS, which demonstrates that the hardware has enough compute headroom to absorb the increased graphical load without approaching the playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, the performance scales down predictably but remains overwhelmingly strong. The Low preset produces an average of 218 FPS, while Medium yields 172 FPS with a minimum of 146 FPS and a maximum of 198 FPS. The High preset averages 138 FPS, and the Ultra preset settles at 107 FPS. The delta between Low and Ultra here is 111 FPS, which is a smaller absolute drop than at 1080p, suggesting that the GPU is beginning to take on more of the workload as pixel count rises, but the overall performance envelope is still far above what the game demands for fluid play.

At 3840x2160, the results become more stratified and reveal the first signs of pressure on the hardware. The Low preset averages 121 FPS, which is still comfortably above 60 FPS. Medium averages 95 FPS with a minimum of 81 FPS and a maximum of 110 FPS, indicating that even in demanding scenes, the frame rate does not dip below the playable threshold. The High preset averages 76 FPS, which remains playable but shows a notable step down from Medium. The Ultra preset, however, averages only 59 FPS, which falls just below the 60 FPS threshold and marks the only measured configuration in the entire dataset that is not considered playable. The progression from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a drop of 62 FPS, and the gap between Medium and Ultra is 36 FPS, which is the largest relative penalty for the highest settings across all resolutions.

Best Settings per Resolution

For 1920x1080, the best settings that remain at or above 60 FPS are the Ultra preset, which achieves an average of 162 FPS. This is the most demanding preset available, and the data indicates that the hardware can handle it with more than double the required frame rate. At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset also qualifies as the best settings, delivering an average of 107 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold by a substantial margin. At 3840x2160, the best settings shift to the High preset, which averages 76 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K is the only configuration in the entire measured dataset that fails to meet the playable threshold, so High represents the ceiling for a smooth experience at this resolution. The data suggests that players targeting 4K should prioritize High settings to maintain a comfortable buffer above the minimum requirement.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearest rivals for the CPU, the Intel Core i7-12700K has an average benchmark score of 35287, which places it in the 84th percentile of all CPUs. The closest competitor is the Intel Core i5-13600T with an average score of 35305, representing a delta of -0.1 percent, which is effectively identical performance. The Intel Core i7-12700KF scores 35365 with a delta of -0.2 percent, and the Intel Core i7-13700T scores 35403 with a delta of -0.3 percent. The Intel Core 5 213PE rounds out the group with a score of 35428 and a delta of -0.4 percent. These results indicate that a system with any of these alternative CPUs would deliver nearly indistinguishable frame rates in Fivem, as the performance differences are well within a fraction of a percent.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 54209 and sits in the 86th percentile of all GPUs. The nearest rival is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 with a score of 54247 and a delta of -0.1 percent, meaning the two cards are virtually tied in performance. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828 with a delta of -1.1 percent, which is slightly higher in aggregate benchmarks but still close enough to behave similarly in practice. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698 with a delta of -2.7 percent, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757 with a delta of -2.8 percent. These rival GPUs would produce comparable frame rates in Fivem, though the RTX 4080 is the closest match for the SUPER variant.

The Verdict

The measured data makes it clear that this PC can run Fivem with excellent results at nearly every setting combination. At 1920x1080, all four presets are playable, with the Ultra preset achieving 162 FPS, which is more than double the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, all four presets are also playable, with Ultra delivering 107 FPS, indicating that this resolution is well within the hardware’s comfort zone. At 3840x2160, the High, Low, and Medium presets are playable, with High being the best option at 76 FPS. The only configuration that fails to clear the threshold is 4K Ultra, which averages 59 FPS and falls just short of the 60 FPS requirement. The verdict by resolution confirms this analysis: the best settings are Ultra at 1080p and 1440p, and High at 4K. Players who insist on 4K Ultra would need to accept a frame rate slightly below the playable threshold, but every other scenario offers a smooth experience.

The data suggests that the combination outperforms the vast majority of other systems in the database, making it a strong choice for Fivem players who prioritize frame rate consistency.

CPU and GPU Roles

The division of labor between the CPU and GPU in Fivem becomes clearer when examining the scaling of frame rates across resolutions and presets. At 1920x1080, the difference between Low and Ultra is 169 FPS, with the Low preset hitting 331 FPS and Ultra at 162 FPS. This large spread indicates that the GPU has significant headroom at lower resolutions, and the CPU’s performance, particularly its single-thread score of 1043 in 3dmark and multi-thread score of 9979, is what enables such high frame rates. As resolution increases to 2560x1440, the spread between Low and Ultra narrows to 111 FPS, showing that the GPU is starting to take on more work, but the CPU still contributes meaningfully to the overall throughput. At 3840x2160, the spread compresses further to 62 FPS, and the Ultra preset drops to 59 FPS, which strongly suggests that the GPU becomes the primary limiting factor at this resolution. The CPU’s role remains consistent throughout, but the RTX 4080 SUPER’s pixel rate of 285.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 816.0 GTexel/s are what ultimately determine the ceiling at 4K. The data implies that for Fivem, the CPU dominates at 1080p, the balance shifts toward the GPU at 1440p, and the GPU is the clear bottleneck at 4K Ultra.
