Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 delivers exceptional performance in Fivem, clearing the 60 FPS threshold at every resolution and settings combination tested. The data shows this combination is not merely playable but overwhelmingly capable, with average frame rates ranging from a low of 63.6 FPS at 4K Ultra to a high of 351.1 FPS at 1080p Low. This places the combo at rank 154 out of 3707 tested configurations, underscoring its position in the upper echelon of systems for this multiplayer title.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS dataset provides a clear picture of performance scaling across three resolutions and four quality presets. At 1920x1080, the combination produces staggering frame rates that far exceed display refresh rate capabilities. The Low preset achieves an average of 351.1 FPS, while Medium reaches 279.6 FPS and High records 220.6 FPS. Even the most demanding Ultra preset at this resolution maintains a robust 173.9 FPS average. This indicates that at 1080p, the RTX 5080 is heavily bottlenecked by the game's engine limits rather than hardware constraints, as the frame rates are so high that CPU overhead becomes the limiting factor.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains exceptionally strong but begins to show more scaling with settings. Low produces 230.4 FPS, Medium delivers 185.5 FPS, and High achieves 145.9 FPS. The Ultra preset at this resolution still holds a commanding 115.3 FPS average. The transition from 1080p to 1440p shows a consistent reduction in frame rates across all presets, with the percentage drop ranging from roughly 34% at Low to 34% at Medium, indicating that the GPU is beginning to take on more of the workload as resolution increases.

At 3840x2160, the performance profile becomes more demanding, yet remains well above playable thresholds. The Low preset averages 129.8 FPS, which is remarkably high for 4K. Medium drops to 102.3 FPS, and High settles at 78.5 FPS. The Ultra preset at this resolution produces 63.6 FPS, which is the lowest measured value in the entire dataset but still comfortably exceeds the 60 FPS playable threshold. The scaling from 1440p to 4K shows a reduction of approximately 44% at Low, 45% at Medium, 46% at High, and 45% at Ultra, demonstrating relatively consistent GPU scaling behavior.

The absence of min and max FPS values in the dataset means the analysis relies solely on averages, but the consistency of scaling patterns suggests stable performance characteristics. The gap between Low and Ultra presets widens with resolution: at 1080p, Ultra is 50% lower than Low; at 1440p, Ultra is 50% lower; and at 4K, Ultra is 51% lower. This consistency indicates that the settings presets scale predictably regardless of resolution, a hallmark of a well-balanced GPU architecture.

Best Settings per Resolution

For 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, which achieves an average of 173.9 FPS. This provides an enormous margin over the threshold, making Ultra the clear choice for maximum visual quality at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, Ultra is also the best settings choice, with an average of 115.3 FPS. This still leaves substantial headroom above 60 FPS, allowing for smooth gameplay even in demanding multiplayer scenarios.

For 3840x2160, Ultra remains viable with an average of 63.6 FPS. While this is the tightest margin in the entire dataset, it still technically clears the 60 FPS threshold. Users seeking additional headroom could step down to High, which averages 78.5 FPS, but the data confirms Ultra is playable at 4K.

The Verdict

This PC can definitively run Fivem, and the verdict across all resolutions is unambiguous: every tested combination of resolution and settings achieves an average above 60 FPS. The verdictByResolution data confirms that all four settings presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are playable at every resolution from 1080p through 4K.

At 1920x1080, the system delivers exceptional performance with Ultra averaging 173.9 FPS, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate monitors up to 144Hz or beyond. The 2560x1440 resolution shows Ultra at 115.3 FPS, which comfortably supports 120Hz displays. At 3840x2160, Ultra produces 63.6 FPS, which is playable but leaves less room for frame time spikes in busy multiplayer moments. Users prioritizing absolute smoothness at 4K might prefer High settings at 78.5 FPS, but the data does not technically require this compromise.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i7-14700F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 ranks 154th out of 3707 tested combinations in Fivem. This places the system in the 95.8th percentile of all tested configurations, an elite standing. The rank reflects the synergy between a top-tier CPU and a high-end GPU, though the specific ranking is influenced by the game's characteristics as a multiplayer title that may not fully utilize all available hardware resources.

The rank of 154 indicates that there are 153 tested combos that perform better in this game. Given that the RTX 5080 is a recent high-end GPU and the i7-14700F is a strong 20-core processor, the systems ranked above likely feature even more powerful components such as the RTX 5090 or specialized high-clock CPUs. However, the practical difference between rank 154 and rank 1 is minimal at 1080p where frame rates exceed 300 FPS, and only becomes more meaningful at 4K Ultra where the margin above 60 FPS is narrower.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals distinct bottleneck patterns depending on resolution. At 1920x1080, the CPU plays the dominant role. The i7-14700F's 20 cores and 28 threads provide ample processing power, but the frame rates exceeding 350 FPS at Low settings indicate that the game's engine is CPU-limited at this resolution. The scaling from Low to Ultra (351.1 to 173.9 FPS) shows a 50% reduction, which is substantial, but the absolute values are so high that GPU utilization is likely incomplete.

At 2560x1440, the balance shifts toward the GPU. The frame rates drop by roughly 34% compared to 1080p across all presets, which is consistent with increased pixel throughput demands. The RTX 5080's 16 GB of GDDR7 memory and 960.0 GB/s bandwidth become more relevant, though the CPU still provides sufficient headroom to avoid becoming the primary constraint.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes clearly dominant. The 4K resolution quadruples the pixel count of 1080p, and the data shows frame rates drop by approximately 60% compared to 1080p across all presets. The RTX 5080's 56.28 TFLOPS of FP32 performance and 112 ROPs handle the increased load, but the margin at Ultra (63.6 FPS) demonstrates that the GPU is now the limiting factor. The CPU's role diminishes at 4K, as evidenced by the similar relative scaling between presets (50% reduction from Low to Ultra) that mirrors the 1080p pattern, suggesting the CPU is no longer the bottleneck.

The presets themselves also reveal component roles. At any given resolution, the jump from Low to Medium to High to Ultra increases GPU load through effects like shadows, textures, and post-processing. The consistent 50% reduction from Low to Ultra across all resolutions suggests that Fivem's Ultra preset approximately doubles the GPU workload compared to Low, regardless of resolution. This consistency indicates balanced scaling in the game's settings implementation.
