Fivem

The Intel Core i7-12700KF paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER delivers a clear performance profile for Fivem, with results that scale predictably across resolutions and presets. The database shows this combo ranks in the 2505th position out of 3707 tested combinations, placing it in the lower-middle portion of the performance distribution. The measured FPS data, however, reveals that this modest rank does not prevent the system from achieving smooth gameplay at the most common display resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combination produces its strongest results. With Low settings, the average frame rate reaches 160.4 FPS, a figure that exceeds the 60 FPS playable threshold by a substantial margin. Medium settings yield 124.4 FPS, while High settings still maintain a commanding 101.8 FPS average. Even Ultra settings, which represent the most demanding configuration tested, hold at 77.3 FPS. Every preset at this resolution clears the playable threshold, and the gap between Low and Ultra is 83.1 FPS, indicating that the GPU and CPU have ample headroom to absorb the additional load from higher graphical fidelity.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but begins to show the expected cost of additional pixels. Low settings average 103.6 FPS, which is a drop of 56.8 FPS compared to the same preset at 1080p. Medium settings fall to 81.4 FPS, and High settings settle at 68.5 FPS. Ultra settings, however, dip below the 60 FPS threshold with an average of 53.8 FPS. This means that three of the four presets at 1440p are playable, but the highest quality option requires a compromise.

At 3840x2160, the system's limitations become apparent. Low settings average 58.9 FPS, just barely missing the 60 FPS threshold. Medium settings drop further to 48.9 FPS, High settings reach 37.2 FPS, and Ultra settings fall to 29.8 FPS. No preset at 4K achieves playable performance, and the difference between Low and Ultra is 29.1 FPS, showing that even the least demanding settings cannot push this hardware past the playable mark. The scaling from 1080p to 4K is steep: Low settings lose 101.5 FPS, while High settings lose 64.6 FPS, demonstrating that resolution is the dominant factor in this game.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 2505 out of 3707 tested combinations places it in the 67th percentile of all tested systems.

The Verdict

This computer can run Fivem, but the playable range depends heavily on the chosen resolution. At 1920x1080, all four presets including Ultra clear the 60 FPS threshold, making this the ideal resolution for this hardware. The best setting at 1080p is Ultra with an average of 77.3 FPS, which provides both the highest visual quality and a comfortable margin above the playable limit.

At 2560x1440, the system remains viable for High, Medium, and Low settings, with High being the best choice at 68.5 FPS. Ultra is not playable at this resolution, as it drops to 53.8 FPS. For users who prioritize resolution over quality, 1440p High is the recommended configuration.

At 3840x2160, the verdict is clear: this system cannot maintain 60 FPS at any preset. The closest result is Low settings at 58.9 FPS, which still falls short. The database records no playable settings for 4K, so users with 4K displays should either lower their resolution or accept a sub-60 FPS experience.

For the CPU, the nearest rivals are all within a fraction of a percent of the Intel Core i7-12700KF's average score. The Intel Core i7-13700T scores 35403, the Intel Core 5 213PE scores 35428, the Intel Core i5-13600T scores 35305, and the Intel Core i7-12700K scores 35287. Any of these processors would deliver nearly identical CPU-bound performance in Fivem, with deltas ranging from -0.2% to 0.2%. The i7-12700K is the most direct alternative, as it shares the same generation and architecture.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile is the closest match with a score of 18159, followed by the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 at 18189, the AMD Radeon RX 460 at 18373, and the Intel Arc A770M at 18383. These cards are all within 1.6% of the RTX 2060 SUPER's average score, meaning users with any of these GPUs would see essentially the same frame rates in Fivem. The RTX 3060 Mobile is particularly notable as a direct successor, but its performance delta of -0.4% indicates it offers no practical advantage.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 77.3 FPS. This is the highest quality setting available and it still provides a 17.3 FPS margin over the playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, the best setting is High, which averages 68.5 FPS. This preset provides a substantial quality improvement over Medium (81.4 FPS) and Low (103.6 FPS) while still maintaining an 8.5 FPS margin above 60 FPS.

At 3840x2160, no preset achieves 60 FPS, so there is no recommended setting. The closest option is Low at 58.9 FPS, but this falls 1.1 FPS short of the playable threshold and is not listed as a playable setting in the database.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals a clear division of labor between the CPU and GPU in Fivem. The CPU, ranked in the 85th percentile, is never the bottleneck at any resolution tested. Its high single-thread and multi-thread scores, including a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 28838 and a single-core score of 4071, provide ample processing power for the game's simulation and networking demands.

The GPU, ranked in the 62nd percentile, becomes the limiting factor as resolution increases. At 1080p, the GPU has enough headroom to push all presets past 60 FPS, with the gap between Low and Ultra being 83.1 FPS. This wide spread indicates that the CPU can feed the GPU efficiently, and the graphics card is the primary determinant of frame rate. At 1440p, the GPU's workload increases, and the Ultra preset falls below 60 FPS while High remains playable. At 4K, the GPU is overwhelmed, and even Low settings cannot reach the threshold.

The scaling between resolutions confirms this interpretation. The FPS drop from 1080p to 1440p is 56.8 FPS at Low settings and 33.3 FPS at High settings, showing that the GPU's rendering load grows faster than the CPU's ability to compensate. The drop from 1440p to 4K is even steeper, with Low settings falling from 103.6 FPS to 58.9 FPS, a loss of 44.7 FPS. This pattern is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario, where the graphics card's fill rate and memory bandwidth (448.0 GB/s) cannot keep pace with the increasing pixel count.

For users of this system, the practical takeaway is that the CPU is more than capable of handling Fivem's computational demands, while the GPU determines the playable envelope. The RTX 2060 SUPER's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 256-bit bus are sufficient for 1080p and 1440p gameplay, but they are not enough for 4K. Upgrading the GPU would yield the most significant performance gains at higher resolutions, while the CPU would remain a stable foundation.
