Fivem

The Intel Core i7-13700K paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is a high-end combination that delivers a clear performance target for Fivem: 60 frames per second is the playable threshold, and this system exceeds it at every resolution and preset tested. The data shows a system that is not just capable of running the game, but one that offers substantial headroom for high refresh-rate displays, particularly at 1440p and 1080p. The measured FPS figures indicate that the primary constraint shifts from raw capability to the demands of higher resolutions and the most demanding settings, with the Ultra preset at 4K being the only configuration that approaches the 60 FPS line.

Best Settings per Resolution

The benchmark results identify the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS, and for this combination, that is the Ultra preset at every resolution. This is the highest settings tier available in the data, meaning the system does not struggle to reach playable frame rates even under maximum graphical load.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the Ultra preset delivers an average of 60.3 FPS. This is a marginal pass, sitting just 0.3 FPS above the playable threshold. While it is technically playable, this leaves very little room for dips in complex multiplayer scenes. For a more comfortable margin at 4K, the High preset provides a significantly higher average of 77.7 FPS, which is a more stable target for consistent gameplay.

Moving to 2560x1440 (1440p), the Ultra preset achieves an average of 107.2 FPS. This is a substantial improvement over the 4K result and provides a smooth experience that is well-suited for high-refresh-rate monitors. The frame rate is high enough to feel responsive, and the visual fidelity is at its maximum.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), the Ultra preset reaches an average of 160.1 FPS. This is an exceptionally high frame rate that fully utilizes the capabilities of high-refresh-rate displays. The system is clearly not bound by the GPU at this resolution, and the Ultra settings are easily handled.

In summary, the best settings per resolution are as follows: Ultra at 4K (60.3 FPS), Ultra at 1440p (107.2 FPS), and Ultra at 1080p (160.1 FPS). While the 4K Ultra setting is technically playable, the data suggests that High at 4K is the practical choice if you prefer a larger performance buffer.

CPU and GPU Roles

The performance scaling across resolutions reveals a clear shift in the balance between CPU and GPU load. At lower resolutions, the GPU has less work to do per frame, allowing the CPU to become a more significant factor in determining the final frame rate. As the resolution increases, the GPU's workload grows, and it becomes the primary bottleneck.

The data at 1920x1080 illustrates this dynamic. The average FPS jumps from 160.1 on Ultra to 330.7 on Low. This massive 170.6 FPS increase when dropping from Ultra to Low settings indicates that the GPU is not the limiting factor at this resolution. The CPU, the Intel Core i7-13700K, is capable of feeding frames at a very high rate, and the GPU is simply rendering them as fast as it can. The performance is largely CPU-bound, and the GPU has ample headroom.

At 2560x1440, the scaling is still significant but less extreme. The average FPS ranges from 107.2 on Ultra to 217.1 on Low. The 109.9 FPS difference between these presets shows that the GPU is beginning to take on more work, but the CPU is still able to push frame rates well above the 60 FPS threshold. The system is more balanced at this resolution, with both components contributing significantly to the final result.

The situation changes at 3840x2160. The average FPS drops to 60.3 on Ultra and 117.8 on Low. The 57.5 FPS difference between the two presets is smaller than at lower resolutions, indicating that the GPU is now the dominant constraint. The RTX 4080 SUPER is working much harder to render each frame, and the CPU has more than enough power to keep up. The performance is clearly GPU-bound at 4K, and the CPU's role is less critical for achieving playable frame rates.

Benchmark results indicate that the CPU is the primary driver of performance at 1080p, while the GPU becomes the limiting factor as the resolution increases. The CPU's high single-thread performance, as seen in its Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2116, is likely a key reason for the strong low-resolution performance.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of performance across all tested settings and resolutions. The average frame rates are listed below, with the min and max FPS values not being available in the dataset.

3840x2160 (4K)

• Low: 117.8 FPS
• Medium: 93.8 FPS
• High: 77.7 FPS
• Ultra: 60.3 FPS

At 4K, the frame rate drops steadily as settings increase. The difference between Low and Ultra is 57.5 FPS, showing a significant performance cost for maximum visual quality.

2560x1440 (1440p)

• Low: 217.1 FPS
• Medium: 169.5 FPS
• High: 135.4 FPS
• Ultra: 107.2 FPS

The 1440p results show a similar trend, with a 109.9 FPS difference between the lowest and highest settings. All presets are comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold.

1920x1080 (1080p)

• Low: 330.7 FPS
• Medium: 261.9 FPS
• High: 206.6 FPS
• Ultra: 160.1 FPS

At 1080p, the system delivers extremely high frame rates. The difference between Low and Ultra is 170.6 FPS, which is the largest gap across all resolutions. This indicates the GPU is not the bottleneck, and the settings have a larger relative impact on the frame rate.

The data shows a consistent pattern: the performance gap between Low and Ultra settings widens as the resolution decreases. This is a direct result of the CPU becoming a more significant factor at lower resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

Within the benchmark database, the Intel Core i7-13700K + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER combination has a comboRankInGame of 294 out of 3707 tested combos. This places it in the top 7.9% of all configurations tested for Fivem, which is a strong showing.

This rank is a measure of the combined performance of both components. The individual parts also show strong standing in their respective fields. The CPU's average benchmark score of 46881 puts it at the 89th percentile of all CPUs, and its nearest rival is the AMD Ryzen 9 5900, which is 0.2% slower. The GPU's average score of 54209 places it at the 86th percentile of all GPUs, with its closest rival being the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080, which is 0.1% slower.

The high rank relative to all tested combos confirms that this is a high-performance pairing. The CPU and GPU are both top-tier components, and their combined performance in Fivem is excellent, ranking in the top 10% of all tested systems. The data suggests that only a small number of more powerful combinations, likely with newer or more expensive hardware, would outperform this setup.

FAQ

The Verdict

The data is unambiguous: this PC can run Fivem exceptionally well. The verdictByResolution field confirms that all four settings presets (Low, Medium, High, and Ultra) are playable at every resolution tested, from 1920x1080 up to 3840x2160.

At 3840x2160, the system clears the 60 FPS threshold with all presets, with the Ultra preset achieving an average of 60.3 FPS. While this is a pass, it is a close one. The High preset at 77.7 FPS offers a more comfortable margin for consistent performance.

At 2560x1440, the system is exceptionally strong. The most demanding Ultra preset delivers 107.2 FPS, which is well above the threshold and ideal for high-refresh-rate gaming. This is the sweet spot for this combination, balancing high visual fidelity with a high frame rate.

At 1920x1080, the system is overwhelmingly powerful. Even the Ultra preset achieves 160.1 FPS, and the Low preset reaches 330.7 FPS. This level of performance is more than sufficient for any competitive or high-refresh-rate scenario.

Ultimately, this combination of the Intel Core i7-13700K and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is more than capable of running Fivem at 60 FPS or higher on the highest settings at all tested resolutions. The only point of caution is the 4K Ultra preset, which is playable but has minimal headroom. For any other configuration, this system provides a powerful and smooth experience.
