Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700K paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER delivers a highly capable Fivem experience, with the database showing a clear path to smooth gameplay across all tested resolutions. The combination ranks in the 58th percentile of all tested combos for this game, placing it ahead of a majority of systems while leaving headroom for higher refresh rate displays at 1080p and 1440p.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is Low. The recorded average at these settings is 64 FPS. The next step up, Medium, drops to an average of 51 FPS, which falls below the playability threshold. Ultra settings at this resolution produce an average of 31 FPS, while High yields 40 FPS. For a locked 60 FPS experience at 4K, Low is the only viable option.

Moving to 2560x1440, the best playable preset rises to High. The measured average at High is 73 FPS, comfortably above the 60 FPS target. Medium also clears the bar with an average of 91 FPS, and Low reaches 116 FPS. Ultra at this resolution falls short at 57 FPS, making High the optimal choice for visual fidelity while staying above the threshold.

At 1920x1080, the entire settings range is playable, and the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra. The average FPS at Ultra is 86. High delivers 111 FPS on average, Medium reaches 138 FPS, and Low produces 175 FPS. This means users can max out the game at 1080p and still have substantial headroom for consistent frame pacing.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data shows that Fivem scales primarily with resolution, which points to the GPU being the dominant factor in determining performance at higher pixel counts. The jump from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at Ultra settings reduces the average FPS from 86 to 57, a drop of 29 FPS or roughly 34%. At High settings, the same resolution change drops the average from 111 to 73, a 38 FPS decline. These significant reductions indicate that the RTX 2070 SUPER is the limiting component as resolution increases.

At 3840x2160, the GPU constraint becomes even more pronounced. The average FPS at High settings falls from 73 at 1440p to 40 at 4K, a reduction of 33 FPS. Even at Low settings, moving from 1440p to 4K reduces the average from 116 to 64, a 52 FPS loss. This pattern confirms that rendering load is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions.

The CPU's role is more apparent at lower resolutions where the GPU has lighter loads. At 1920x1080, the Core i7-14700K's 20 cores and 28 threads provide ample processing power for Fivem's multiplayer workloads. The fact that Low settings at 1080p reach 175 FPS average suggests the CPU is not a limiting factor at this resolution, as the frame rate is driven by the GPU's ability to render quickly rather than CPU bottlenecking.

The scaling between Low and Ultra settings at each resolution also reveals the GPU's influence. At 1080p, the gap between Low (175 FPS) and Ultra (86 FPS) is 89 FPS, showing how much headroom the GPU has when settings are lowered. At 1440p, the gap narrows to 59 FPS (116 to 57), and at 4K it narrows further to 33 FPS (64 to 31). This diminishing spread indicates that the GPU is approaching its limits as resolution increases, making the CPU's contribution less impactful at 4K.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the complete set of measurements shows a wide performance envelope. Low settings produce an average of 175 FPS. Medium settings yield an average of 138 FPS, with a minimum of 118 FPS and a maximum of 159 FPS. High settings average 111 FPS. Ultra settings average 86 FPS. The minimum and maximum data for Medium indicates consistent frame delivery, with the 41 FPS spread between min and max suggesting manageable frame time variance.

At 2560x1440, the measurements show lower overall performance but still strong playability. Low settings average 116 FPS. Medium settings average 91 FPS, with a minimum of 77 FPS and a maximum of 105 FPS. High settings average 73 FPS. Ultra settings average 57 FPS, dipping just below the 60 FPS target. The Medium preset's min-to-max spread of 28 FPS is tighter than at 1080p, reflecting the heavier GPU load.

At 3840x2160, the performance drops significantly. Low settings average 64 FPS, barely clearing the playability threshold. Medium settings average 51 FPS, with a minimum of 43 FPS and a maximum of 58 FPS. High settings average 40 FPS. Ultra settings average 31 FPS. The Medium preset at 4K shows a 15 FPS spread between minimum and maximum, indicating that frame rates can fluctuate noticeably at this resolution.

The min and max values recorded only for Medium settings at each resolution provide insight into frame pacing. At 1080p Medium, the 118 FPS minimum ensures smooth gameplay even during demanding scenes. At 1440p Medium, the 77 FPS minimum remains above the 60 FPS threshold. At 4K Medium, the 43 FPS minimum shows that the GPU can struggle under load, making this preset unsuitable for consistent play despite the 51 FPS average.

How This Combo Ranks

The database ranks this specific CPU and GPU combination at position 2138 out of 3707 tested combos for Fivem. This places the system in the top 42.3% of all recorded configurations, meaning it outperforms more than half of the tested systems while trailing a substantial number of higher-end pairings.

The rank reflects a balanced pairing where the Core i7-14700K's strong single-threaded performance complements the RTX 2070 SUPER's mid-range capabilities. The CPU's benchmark scores, including a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 33440.5 and a Geekbench single-core score of 2569, indicate it can feed the GPU efficiently at lower resolutions. The GPU's Passmark G3D score of 18169 shows it holds its own among graphics cards, though it is not a top-tier performer.

At 1080p, this combo's rank likely benefits from the CPU's ability to push high frame rates, as evidenced by the 175 FPS average at Low settings. At 4K, the rank is more dependent on the GPU, where the 64 FPS average at Low settings represents the practical ceiling for this pairing. The overall rank of 2138 suggests that while this system can handle Fivem well at 1080p and 1440p, it falls behind combinations with more powerful GPUs at 4K.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals in the database show very close average benchmark scores. The AMD EPYC 9115 scores 69288, just 0.1% below the Core i7-14700K's average. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X scores 69515, a 0.2% difference. The AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX scores 69875, 0.7% higher. The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F scores 69996, 0.9% higher. These small deltas mean any of these CPUs would deliver nearly identical frame rates in Fivem when paired with the same GPU, as the game's performance at 1080p and 1440p is unlikely to differentiate between processors within a 1% performance band.

For the GPU, the nearest rivals also cluster tightly. The NVIDIA Quadro M4000M scores 20480, 1% higher than the RTX 2070 SUPER's average. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile scores 20534, 1.2% higher. The Intel Arc B570 scores 20556, 1.3% higher. The Intel Arc A750 scores 20582, 1.5% higher. Users considering these alternatives would see virtually identical FPS in Fivem, with differences well within measurement noise.

The tight clustering of both CPU and GPU rivals means that swapping to any of these similarly performing components would not materially change the gameplay experience. The Core i7-14700K and RTX 2070 SUPER combination sits in a performance tier where adjacent hardware delivers within 2% of the same results, making upgrade decisions between these specific parts largely irrelevant for Fivem.
