Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7700 presents a clear performance profile for Fivem: it is a 1080p and 1440p powerhouse, but it hits a hard wall at 4K. The data shows a system that can max out settings at lower resolutions with ease, yet requires significant compromises at 4K to maintain a playable frame rate. Benchmark results indicate that the CPU’s strong multi-threaded performance (Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35,122) and the GPU’s 16 GB of GDDR6 memory provide a solid foundation, but the game’s scaling across resolutions reveals where the limits lie.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the system clears the 60 FPS threshold at every preset. The most demanding setting, Ultra, yields an average of 98 FPS, which is the best playable preset. High delivers 126 FPS, Medium 158 FPS, and Low 200 FPS. Since Ultra stays well above the 60 FPS playable threshold, it is the optimal choice for maximum visual quality at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the situation is similar but with a narrower margin. Ultra produces an average of 65 FPS, which remains above the 60 FPS threshold. This makes Ultra the best playable setting. The lower presets are also viable: High averages 83 FPS, Medium 104 FPS, and Low 132 FPS. The data shows that the GPU’s 25.18 TFLOPS FP32 performance and 624.1 GB/s memory bandwidth are sufficient to handle the increased pixel count at maximal settings.

At 3840x2160, the picture changes dramatically. Only Low settings manage to hold above 60 FPS, with an average of 73 FPS. Medium dips to 58 FPS (with a minimum of 49 FPS), High falls to 46 FPS, and Ultra drops to 36 FPS. The verdict is unambiguous: Low is the only playable preset at 4K, and it is the best settings choice solely because it is the only one that clears the threshold.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data reveals a distinct shift in component importance as resolution increases. At 1080p, the CPU’s role is prominent. The i7-14700F’s PassMark multi-thread score of 41,317 and single-thread score of 4,257 help drive frame rates that reach 200 FPS on Low. The scaling from Low (200 FPS) to Ultra (98 FPS) at 1080p shows a 102 FPS drop, indicating that the GPU is not the sole bottleneck; the CPU is feeding frames fast enough to expose the GPU’s limits at lower settings.

At 1440p, the GPU begins to take on a heavier load. The drop from Low (132 FPS) to Ultra (65 FPS) is a 67 FPS reduction, which is less severe than at 1080p but still significant. The 1440p Medium result of 104 FPS (with a minimum of 88 FPS) suggests that the GPU’s compute resources are being more thoroughly utilized. The CPU’s performance headroom is less critical here, as the frame rates are lower and the GPU is handling more pixels.

At 4K, the GPU becomes the dominant factor. The difference between Low (73 FPS) and Ultra (36 FPS) is a 37 FPS spread, but the absolute numbers are the key indicator. The GPU’s raw throughput, measured at 25.18 TFLOPS FP32, is insufficient to maintain high frame rates at 2160p with higher presets. The CPU’s role is effectively neutralized; even with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35,122, the GPU’s pixel rate of 236.1 GPixel/s is the limiting factor. The data shows that resolution scaling is non-linear: 1080p to 1440p reduces average FPS by roughly 35-40% across presets, while 1440p to 4K reduces it by roughly 44-50%.

Measured FPS Breakdown

1920x1080: The complete set of measured averages shows a steady progression. Low runs at 200 FPS. Medium averages 158 FPS, with a minimum of 134 FPS and a maximum of 182 FPS. High averages 126 FPS. Ultra averages 98 FPS. All presets exceed the 60 FPS playable threshold by a wide margin.

2560x1440: Low averages 132 FPS. Medium averages 104 FPS, with a minimum of 88 FPS and a maximum of 120 FPS. High averages 83 FPS. Ultra averages 65 FPS. The minimum at Medium (88 FPS) is notable; it shows that even at this resolution, frame pacing remains stable enough to avoid drops below the playable threshold.

3840x2160: Low averages 73 FPS. Medium averages 58 FPS, with a minimum of 49 FPS and a maximum of 66 FPS. High averages 46 FPS. Ultra averages 36 FPS. The Medium minimum of 49 FPS is below the 60 FPS threshold, confirming that even the middle preset is not reliably playable at 4K. The gap between Low and Medium is 15 FPS, which is the largest jump between consecutive presets at any resolution, indicating a steep performance cliff.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU’s nearest rivals, based on average benchmark scores, offer a frame of reference for what other processors might behave like. The Intel Xeon 6505P has an average score of 53,701, which is 0.2% lower than the i7-14700F’s 53,620. This means the Xeon 6505P would deliver effectively identical CPU-bound performance in Fivem. The Intel Xeon Phi 7290 scores 53,469 (0.3% higher), again a negligible difference. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X scores 53,288 (0.6% higher), and the AMD EPYC 7313P scores 53,206 (0.8% higher). All four alternatives are within 1% of the i7-14700F’s average benchmark score, so in CPU-bound scenarios, any of these would produce nearly the same frame rates.

For the GPU, the nearest rivals show a wider spread. The AMD Radeon R9 370X has an average score of 15,862, which is 0.1% lower than the RX 7700’s 15,852. This is a surprising pairing, as the R9 370X is an older architecture, but the benchmark data places them close. The AMD Radeon RX 9060 scores 16,014 (1% higher), making it a slightly faster alternative that would yield a marginal FPS increase. The AMD Radeon Pro W5500 scores 15,679 (1.1% lower), performing nearly identically. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti scores 16,129 (1.7% higher), representing the largest performance delta among the listed rivals. In practice, the RTX 3060 Ti would be the most noticeable upgrade, though the difference is still small enough that the gaming experience would be similar.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem, but the playable experience depends heavily on resolution. At 1920x1080, the system clears 60 FPS at all settings, with Ultra averaging 98 FPS. This is a fully playable configuration at maximum quality. At 2560x1440, the verdict is also positive: Ultra averages 65 FPS, and all lower presets are well above 60 FPS. The system is fully playable at high settings too, with High averaging 83 FPS.

At 3840x2160, the verdict is conditional. Only Low settings clear the 60 FPS threshold, with an average of 73 FPS. Medium (58 FPS), High (46 FPS), and Ultra (36 FPS) all fall below the playable threshold. The data indicates that 4K gaming is possible only with significant graphical compromises. For a player who prioritizes 4K resolution, the system will run the game, but visual quality will be limited to the lowest preset. Benchmarks results indicate that this is a 1080p and 1440p machine for Fivem, with 4K as a secondary capability.
